Top Desert of Maine Hotel Reviews

Econo Lodge Freeport - Brunswick Area

10/10 Excellent

"Staff were very good."

Best Western Freeport Inn

8/10 Good

"The best thing I like it’s because it was a Freeport cafe in the parking lot"

Hampton Inn Freeport/Brunswick

8/10 Good

"I was disappointed with this hotel considering it was the most expensive in the area, so I guess I expected more. It wasn’t bad, but the walls were really thin (I could hear my neighbor snoring), the hallways were a little worn down (not awful but again, below expectations), and there was a terrible smell in the back doorway. However, it was a great location and easy parking, a clean room, and comfortable beds."

We stayed three nights, will definitely stop here again!"
