My son and I took a tour of the University of Maine campus and needed a place to stay overnight. The hotel was right on campus so it was extremely convenient. The staff was great, the room was very clean and comfortable, and the hotel had a great feel to it overall!

Stayed at Hotel Ursa for spring semester drop-off for my son and this hotel was so convenient. Reasonably priced and very clean, the hotel was a nice surprise. The gentlemen at the front desk were so helpful and polite and made checkin a breeze.

Fantastic place and so convenient. Other than having the front desk guy bang on my door 3 times at night, the 3rd time to tell me the computer glitched and someone else was booked for the room I had been in since 3pm- why he didn’t just give them another room- it was practically empty- rather than hassle me I’m not sure. I’m guessing that was not the norm. Overall one of the cleanest and freshest looking places I’ve stayed and for a great price.

Location was great, property and parking was great. Check in and out was great. Everything was great except breakfast 😌 There is no free or even reduced breakfast, guests are required to purchase breakfast from hotel cafe which is an extreme disappointment. For this we won't be staying again. Sorry.
