“UMaine Graduation stay”

Reviewed 14 May 2013

Great stay. Staff was top notch. Always greeted with a smile by everyone from the front desk to the housekeepers. Beds were comfortable with nice pillows. Breakfast was basic but nice and the coffee was great. Loved having a Keurig in our room. Will stay here again.

I had the pleasure of staying at the Black Bear Inn in October of 2012. The Black Bear was the site for PE testing and was nice to relax in a wonderful room before and after testing! The atomosphere and service was excellent, would recommend!

Stayed one night for workshop on U Maine campus. Very convenient, barely 10 minutes away and right off highway.
