  This is a welcome alternative to the years and years of theft and gouging along with rate manipulation that the Hampton Inn Presque Isle has been bestowing upon the travelers throughout Aroostook county. One thing to keep in mind these hotels are not just hosting ‘down’ staters like myself and out of staters, it’s also a lifeline for those in the county who need to travel for either work or even healthcare. I’ve stayed here twice and, yes, it’s basic. But it is clean, well maintained/freshly renovated, and there’s a huge bonus with a decent bar for dinner with delectable poutine for this side of the border. I found it to be a better experience than the brewery across the street haha. I am not tickled about there primarily only being first floor rooms, but to save over $125/night from the thievery in Presque Isle while still maintaining comfort, it’s greatly worth it. I don’t eat breakfast but the menu looked great for their restaurant. I also greatly appreciate the espresso machine in the lobby along with a water bottle fill station. My first stay was in the middle of the summer and my second was towards the end of September. My first stay was fairly quiet however my second one unfortunately there was a domestic argument nonviolent issue in the room across from me that was quite loud. The staff got it taken care of and Scott the owner/manager even took the time to follow up with me and apologize which shows the refreshing caring attitude that many hotels just don’t have these days. There’s an issue with the bathroom shower doors, they’re a Euro style design however put inside a small American shower stall and I’m happy to see responses from Scott in other reviews that it will be addressed soon. Shame though because they’re generally better for the environment than curtains and cleaner than fixed glass doors however it’s just too tight of a space and kind of ahead of its time. I probably won’t use this hotel for over two nights due to the, primarily, first floor rooms, location in Caribou towards the northern part of my work, but to be honest I’m looking forward to my next stay there in a couple of weeks for a quick night to visit clients and grabbing some poutine, burger, and a beer for dinner.

  I was in Northern Maine checking out the area as this was the first duty station that my father was assigned to. I was hoping to check out the air museum, which is in the airport, but unfortunately it had bizarre hours and I would have to wait zero 0345 to 0700 hours to see the air museum. So as I was checking out the area, I noticed this best western and it was right next to a brewery to me. This is an awesome combination. I didn’t have a reservation, and I went up to the front desk and they gladly took care of me and gave me a room. The room was comfortable and Homie. The lobby had just been redone and they also have a fitness area and a bar and a restaurant. After going to the brewery for an appetizer and a beer, I returned to the hotel bar and had a phenomenal beat Salad and chicken strips, which I asked them if they could put the Korean sauce from the cauliflower on and they gladly obliged. I didn’t take any pictures because I was having a senior moment and I was distracted by beer and food. If you’re ever up north this is far an amazing place to stay
