    Bathroom floor upon check-in

    I was visiting my family in Maine for the first time in two years (due to the pandemic). It was also the occasion of my birthday as well as my brother's 60th. My mother insisted that I stay at a "nice hotel" so recommended The Brunswick Hotel. At $429 per night for Friday and Saturday and $329 for Sunday night, as well as the hotel's assurances of a focus on health and safety due to COVID-19, one should absolutely expect that the room would be clean. Unfortunately, that was not the case. There were long dark hairs on the floor of the bathroom (which also had smears of dirt) as well as short dark hairs in the shower. The bathroom vanity was extremely dusty and the light over the mirror did not work. The lamp on the night table was also caked in dust. I stopped by hotel reception on my way out the first day to advise them that the room was not clean and ask them to please ensure that it was upon my return later that day. It was somewhat better but the lamp still had not been dusted and there was still a short dark hair in the shower. So, clearly their focus was not on cleanliness. On the third night they failed to empty the wastebaskets and recyclables as well as replace the dirty washcloth in the bathroom. At a cost of $1,167 for three nights in an unclean room, this hotel was a total failure and I would not recommend a stay here.

    Don't want to know what this is!

    Went here for brunch today with a few friends and must say that I was very impressed. The staff…read morewas friendly and the space was quaint as one would hope for in an historic inn. I ordered the breakfast sandwich which was atypically served on slices of bread as opposed to an English muffin, but it was fantastic! The eggs were fluffy and delicious, and were complemented by a buttery lemon sauce that made the whole dish. Highly recommend.

    High prices, low quality, poor service. The decor and ambience are coupled with prices that lead…read moreone to believe this is a high end establishment. Breakfast this weekend proved otherwise. Go to impress parents or similar if you are a college student. For quality and price, based on our experience, would not do again. Overcooked eggs, grudging portions, mix and match plateware that just confounds (bacon and eggs in a bowl - really? but only for one person in the party?). The menu is also misleading. The fabled "hash of the day" turned out to be just a pile of ordinary unremarkable overcooked and unseasoned home fries. The same side everyone else had for free, but costing some part of the wallet-stretching $21 in the context of the all-in "165" breakfast - two overcooked over-easy eggs (no seasoning), a slice of thin sourdough bread cut in two, a pile of indifferent home fries and two of the smallest pieces of bacon you can imagine. $8-12 in any self-respecting diner in the country, and typically made with far more care and flavor. When asked how plain ordinary home fries were a "hash of the day" when they were also unmentioned sides for other dishes, the waitress shrugged and said "it's a KIND of hash. We call that hash here." Touche. Should have asked more questions. And the toast is a single piece of seemingly storebought sourdough bread cut in half (no evidence here, just disappointment being expressed). No substitution, no extras. Pretty much no butter, either. Another member of the party had the blueberry pancakes, Thick and heavy, and unremarkable, once again. Any diner does it better - for half the price. Timing was a serious issue too. The dining room was somewhere between 1/3 and 1/2 full. 3-4 tables in other words. Still took well over 45 minutes to get food. Watched 2 pairs of other diners come, order, eat, pay and leave as we waited, Food came cool with no explanation or apology for the long wait. Small complaints perhaps, but at this price, they are making bold claims and utterly failing to match up. Breakfast should be a lay-up for places like this. The ingredients cost almost nothing and the work involved is strictly short-order, simple, fast-turn work in a relatively uncrowded dining room. No reason to go light on ingredients or on flavors. Breakfast is an easy meal to wow in aplace like this, and New England has traditions to uphold - and yet the establishment clearly did not see the point in putting in the effort to match their prices, decor, or location. The capper was watching the tables cleared by a surly teenager in stained board shorts and stained tshirt and sneakers with unwashed hair in a beautiful dining room. The young man clomped in and would withdraw 1-2 plates at a time before stomping out, taking over ten minutes to clear a single table. Overpriced and under-quality. It's for tourists. Beautiful building, though.
