Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

Bar Harbor, Maine14 contributions1 helpful vote
Had to leave room upstairs and go to lobby to get WiFi. In this day and age and with the rates being charged with amenities and then you get no WiFi. At breakfast you had people staring down at you while eating breakfast not sure who they were. Staff looked very unhappy and hardly smiled. Young lady that checked me in was friendly and helpful I would give her 5 stars.

This was a fantastic experience the faculty and customer service was first rate. They are very good value for money. Thier breakfast options were local dishes with lots of options and surprisingly included in the package at a price that was already one of the lowest in portland. I will definitely have this as my go to hotel in Portland. Staff makes you feel like family. Wonderful experience

First let me begin by saying that all the staff at the hotel went above and beyond to ensure that my family and I had a great experience. The breakfast provided on a daily basis was mouth-watering and took me back to my Jamaican roots. I looked forward to the breakfast each morning because chef Michael Fuller cooks the most amazing fried dumplings. All the other foods he cooks are amazing, but the friend dumplings are my favorite. With this said the hotel could use some upgrade. The bathroom fixtures are outdated, and the low water pressure is ridiculous. If you are looking for a clean hotel room and great food this is the hotel for you, however if you want all the bells and whistles you might be left wanting.

The staff at Hotel Tim Bamboo are awesome. Shout out to Michael in housekeeping he is the best. However, the only drawback for me staying in Portland was proper transportation to and from venues without being ripped off by money hungry taxis. Also, I would have liked for a vending machine for after hours for just incase late night crave. Subsequently, it was a great stay with good tasty breakfast and the staff very accommodating and most of all polite.
