I took my Labrador with my daughter and I on recent trip to Bangor. We stayed in a "pet friendly" room. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was clean and well-equipped. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay there again. Breakfast was help yourself area and well-stocked with both usual pastries and cereals, but also had hot waffle machine, and toasters.

Although it’s an older property, it really is well taken care of. Since the start of Covid, the housekeeping staff has their hands full and things of slid a bit. I think for the price at the size of the room we really have to take it into consideration that the deal is good! It’s just a continental breakfast nothing fancy just to get you on your way when you look at the prices compared to Bangor sometimes to save quite a bit. The night that we stayed it was cheaper than the Hampton Inn by $120! It’s a few exits up from all the hustle and bustle a Bangor so it allows it to be quiet yeah it’s

DO NOT STAY HERE! The rooms are disgusting, they smell, the carpets look, feel, and smell like they’ve never been cleaned ever. The place smells like mold and feet. The girl that was working the front desk was rude and disrespectful. She didn’t know anything about anything. Don’t waste your money. The place is a complete dive. I would of rather slept in a cardboard box then there. Find some where else to stay. I promise you will be disappointed if you stay here, let alone pay to stay there. Gross. The health department needs to shut this place down.

We chose the Black Bear Inn and Conference Center for our wedding because of their affordability, excellent staff, accommodations and cleanliness. Everyone there was incredible from the second you walk in to the time we checked out. We stayed for the whole weekend in their honeymoon suite! IT was perfect! We had all of our requests made from the food to the decorations to walking down the aisle saying "I DO!" We had our rehearsal dinner the night prior and the food was excellent, so we couldn't wait for our food after our ceremony! Tracey and Jenn were excellent and so easy to work with! Along

Nice, clean room...very friendly staff.
Received a number of communications by email before & after my stay which were appreciated appreciated for their information content. It's great to see an accommodation being so proactive in communicating with guests.
Location is right off I-95, so easy in and out.
Will stay again.

What can I say???? The people who work here are AMAZING! The hotel is a little dated but still nice and for the most part clean. Everyone we encountered at the hotel was great... Especially the front desk crew. They were so helpful to us when we ended up needing an emergency backup plan. The hotel is located on the backside of a highway but from our room, we didn't hear any road noise at all. Even outside, there was little noise from the highway, apparently that stretch of the highway is pretty light in traffic. The hotel is also set back behind a few things so it was pretty quiet around it. Our
