Seemed a little more aged outside than I assumed from the photos but everything was clean and very comfortable inside. Very helpful and friendly staff, would stay again.

Room was clean, and restaurants and shopping close by. Just you basic roadside motel convenient off the hwy 95.
Excellent property with nice rooms, an adequate breakfast, huge parking, and fantastic staff. It is immediately off I-95 and convenient for many Maine attractions. I strongly recommend. The price was also very reasonable.
The staff were friendly and welcoming, and the property was clean and well-maintained. What we appreciated most was the convenience of having parking right on the premises. Overall, we had a great experience and would highly recommend this property!
The staff at the Elmwood were very friendly and helpful. There are few amenities: no coffee maker in the room, extremely limited breakfast, no dining room per se. But there is plenty of convenient parking and there are several places to get breakfast nearby. The rooms are very clean and comfortable, with large, newly updated bathrooms. We would stay here again.
The room was newly renovated and clean. The breakfast was a grab and go. With granola bars coffee, toast. Thankfully Dunkin is next door. The location was easily accessible to the main highway.
Close to the I95 and the reason for my journey. I was in a separate building, however felt safe. The room was only accessible by about 4 steps up, tricky with a suitcase. There was no peephole in the door ... I did not like that. The staff was extremely friendly and a modest breakfast provided.
Basic, clean hotel. No frills, was as basic as it comes, good clean rooms, good beds, no loud guest or outside interference.

Room was small but clean. mattress was very good as well as the pillows. There was no coffee maker or a clock. Towels were cheap ones. Discolored and not so neat job of caulking the shower. Overall 3.5 stars out of 5.
Staff was great but property was sub par or below due to damages, being dirty including a closed and swamp filled pool that is not a listed amenity. Also advertised vending machines missing from property. Room had damages and was dirty!
Mason was the front desk representative. He was incredibly helpful and accommodating. We requested an early check-in and he was able this particular date to approve our request. Super helpful considering we are from away and made our trip for a concert so much more relaxed and pleasant. Thank you again Mason. Upon check out this morning, the front desk representative was also very kind and helpful with key return and breakfast/coffee needs. I failed to get her name because I had not consumed said coffee yet and was not fully awake.🙂🙂🙂 Thank you again to kind woman in charge this morning. Will definitely book again for future concert visits.
