“The location certainly stands out, putting you within easy reach of Wells' beaches and the broader Maine coast. I found the variety of accommodations appealing, from standard rooms to more private cottage-style setups that suit different travel styles. While some might find the interiors a touch dated, the pool area, with its Atlantic views, feels like the main draw.”
