Staff were very kind
Each person should get two pillows
we rented a fan which was great but only knew that through someone else that stayed at another university. Is this advertised?
The grounds, buildings are beautiful

Sweet and simple. Nothing fancy but if you are just looking for a place to sleep, it’s a solid spot.

It was a quiet stay, nothing fancy - you get exactly what you're expecting from a stripped down dorm. Location was handy and the price was right. Showers left a bit to be desired but it was overall ok. I'd stay again.

Price is great. Super safe accommodations. A little warm at night and hot water takes a long time to get to shower and even when it finally arrives, it’s like warm. Beautiful university campus and it’s very close to some great food and coffee choices, along with recreation.

Better signage would be very helpful. Check in staff while friendly, could be a bit better at explaining where things are, providing wifi info. Overall, good place to spend a night

It’s a university dorm with few amenities. Read reviews! We took a fan and a Kerig coffee maker- thank goodness because it was a hot night. Nice little kitchen area with microwave and full fridge with freezer. Exactly what we expected. Check in area not well marked but staff were very friendly. We are both alumni so it was fun to come back!

It's a perfectly functional place to stay. Don't count on using the kitchen because they don't supply plates or cutlery. The bathrooms are a little dirty. But overall, it's a decent place to stay for lower cost than most other accomodations in the area

This is a true campus experience. That being said the rooms and bathrooms are clean. You are a two minute walk to the Main Street. You are a 10 minute drive to shopping.

This would be a good choice for someone familiar with the Acadia campus. Since I wasn't, it was difficult to find the building for my check-in (which wasn't the same building as our room). The printed guide for summer visitors assumed a lot of campus knowledge -- and in any case should have been email to people with reservations ahead of time. Room adequate, but no towels.

I arrived to find that air conditioning did not exist in the building. The room was 27 Celsius. A fan could be supplied but that would require a 20$ deposit. The solution was to pay another 45$ and move to the building with AC. This took time and energy when all I wanted to do was sleep. The person at the counter named Blessing was extremely helpful. Kudos to them.
