Winthrop Motel

"Im from out of town but my family lives near by this is the worst motel in maine hands down when i walked in the teller was very rude he looked at me like he never seen a black guy before and when i asked for a room he told me no very rudely and asked me to leave then when i sat in the parking lot to look for another hotel near by on my phone the teller came out screaming saying he was calling the cops if i didnt leave the property mind you i did nothing wrong and i was a nice as i could be the hole time . if i was white i wouldnt have gotten treated this way ."

"The new management seems to be cleaning up. The room renovations are real nice. Would recommend this for a stay. Well after staying there for 3 weeks I'd like to amend my review. No heat or maximum Heat no in between! 90 degrees or or 50 degrees! There appears to be mold in a lot of places. Hot water does not seem to be plentiful, it's fine if you take a shower at 2 a.m. in the morning but not when you get home from work. The management screams and hollers at each other so loud that you can hear it well away from the office. If this Behavior was done by a renter they would be thrown out! They have just replace all the windows in the front. They have not frame them in properly and the resulting in drafts all over the place. Housekeeping, or lack thereof consist of changing your towels one time a week, and making the bed one time a week. For the weekly rate of $250 you would expect a lot more. The manager talks about all the other renters two other renters. I am very concerned about my security when they take a copy of driver's licenses which contain all your information and do not return it to you upon check-in, identity theft prevention 101 says that you should guard all your information. They are not a major chain hotel with no safeguards to protect your information they are kept in a binder in the office which is left unlocked during the day. They have cameras which may or may not be working as a deterrent but that finder would be a bad guys jackpot if it ever got misplace. I would strongly advised against staying there at all costs. It is my opinion that if they were ever inspected they would probably find many problems. Do not plug your computer in unless you have a good surge protector. My surge protector indicated that there was no ground."

"This place is a dump and over priced. The managers are sketchy and will.only except cash and use two receipt books. The rooms are rotten and moldy. Unfortunately I had to stay for over six month due to financial hardship. I've complained about mold issue and rotten wood and it took three months for them to come paint over issue. They enter your room when you aren't home and things end up missing. The husband screams constantly and the wife is a drunk. I have reported them to town code enforcement and also better business bureau...absolutely a horrible place to stay."

"My family and I have been living here for a few weeks now and I would say it's pretty good. Once I saw the outside I though "oh man, this looks like a really crappy place.." as soon as I saw the rooms I was like "wow" so don't let the outside fool you. The people here are really great people and very friendly. Overall I would recommend this motel to anyone who would like a nice stay."

"My wife and I stayed for a couple nights during the off season.. very nice and quiet. They have wireless internet which I thought was a big plus for me. We try and stay at different places. It does look a little run down, but the rooms were clean and quiet, and the staff was very pleasant. I would recommend this hotel to other travellers."
