    Oakwood Inn and Motel - This is the only photo of the room I took, 2 queen beds. So comfortable!

I'd never stayed in a motel before and I was expecting something dingy and dark, but the room was actually nicer than most chain hotels I've stayed in! The hardwood floor was beautiful, there was a nice tv, and the bathroom was also very clean. I would definitely stay here again! Highly recommend if you're visiting Sanford!

    Don't get me wrong--Sanford, Maine isn't exactly a booming metropolis with high-end dining, shops,…read moreand luxury hotels. So I didn't expect much from the Oakwood. And I did not get much, either. The staff at the Oakwood were very pleasant, which is something that I DO expect from Sanford, Maine. We checked in on a Tuesday night the week of Christmas and were given the keys to Room 110--supposedly the private honeymoon suite in the second building. It left much to be desired. There was a fridge and microwave, as well as a flat screen TV with cable. After that, it was pretty dismal. The best was nothing special, the furniture was massively dated, and the bathroom was unnecessarily huge. The shower was built for folks 5'3" and under. I felt like Andre the Giant. And those tin ceilings they claim are cheap plastic, and the ones in the bathroom were warped. But the biggest gripe about the room was the cleanliness, or lack thereof. The carpeted floors felt gritty with dirt. And our small beagle (kudos to allowing pets, BTW) spent the first 15 minutes sniffing around the room, licking the floor and finding whatever "ground candy" was left behind--under tables, under the radiators, around the fridge. The staff came and cleaned the room on the second day (we used the DND sign the first day) and made the bed and brought new towels in. If they vacuumed, I sure as hell couldn't tell, as the grittiness lingered in the carpets. Also, they need to replace the caulking in the shower--it was jet black with whatever mold and grime has built up. Heinous. We were there for 4 nights, and the total was ~$290. i feel like that was about $90 too much. I'll search for other options the next time I am in Sanford.

    The Lincoln Hotel - Lobby Christmas decorations

    We had such a great stay at The Lincoln! The bar was a highlight with excellent drinks and a cozy…read moreseating area in the lobby. Parking was super easy as well which made arriving and settling in stress-free. Our room was spotless, the bathroom was beautiful and the shower had amazing water pressure, which we really appreciated. Additionally, having Spinning Jenny's Coffee Bar right inside the hotel was such a bonus. Their coffees were delicious! The rustic, industrial-chic design throughout the hotel is so well done and the staff were welcoming and kind from the moment we arrived! Would absolutely recommend and would love to stay here again!

    Thanks for ruining a nice Mother's Day out with my son. At 2:00 pm my son and I went to the Lincoln…read moreso I could get a nice fancy drink and we could hang out in their nice comfy chairs and lounge area. There were only two other people in the lounge at the time. I was told that no where's in the lounge (which is big) could my 8 year old son be. When I commented that it didn't say 21+ anywheres and this was a hotel lobby / lounge they repeated that it's a rule that kids are not allowed even if they aren't sitting in the bar. It was also Mother's Day and as a single mom I had been looking forward to a nice afternoon here with my son. My son felt horrible as he had known I really wanted to go there and even said "I can wait in the car while you spend time in there so I don't ruin Mother's Day." We immediately left as he didn't ruin the day but the Lincoln hotel did. I highly recommend anyone with kids stay away as clearly I thought this was a family friendly place and it's not.

    Quality Inn - Blood Stain on sheet!

    Location was ideal for what we needed - that is where the joyful experience ends…read more We arrived to the room late, the floor was sticky upon entering the room - we were wiping the floor with Chlorox wipes and they were very grimy after doing so. The bed covers were ripped and stained - we took them off and put them on the floor in the corner to find the sheets and pillows were stained. The outlets on the TV stand/desk did not work which was an inconvenience because we needed to work at the desk. At times the TV would stop working with a message that the signal was not available - after asking about it at the desk, we were told it was a known issue specifically when it was cloudy (the skies were mostly clear). The grout in the bathroom was very dirty and needs a good bleaching. Shower curtain rod is pulling away from the wall and is rusty, water pressure was minimal at the sink and it took a while to get hot water. The bathtub clearly has a significant crack and has been covered with a rubberized mat. The most bothersome part of the stay was the amount of cigarette and marijuana smoke that was entering the room through the air conditioning vent and bathroom vent. I took pictures of the amount of cigarettes on the ground outside our window. I don't have a problem with smoking, I have an issue when people aren't using the designated spots and all of our belongings now smell stale. When I shared it with the staff about the smoke we were told that it would be looked into and the vents would be checked. I kindly mentioned that it may need to be a broader conversation with the smoking guests to have courtesy for other guests. This place is not a $200 per night place - $100 per night would be pushing it. It's an insult to the Choice Hotel brand and should have "Quality" removed from the name.
