White Birches is a delightful little strip motel. Some parts of it appear to be in a renovation process. Our room, although not renovated/updated, was still quite nice. It was clean and had everything we needed. Our room also had queen-size beds (not doubles) which we require. The office staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The only downside to this motel was that two of the three ice machines were not working and the only working one was the scoop/chest freezer type and there was no scoop. Overall, however, this was a wonderful motel.

144- Bathroom door didn’t shut, fridge froze our sodas, bathroom sink splatters water because it had no aerator/diffuser, bathroom sink drain was slow and would backup, and at night people from outside can see through the curtains because they are so thin. The place really needs some minor maintenance and love.

The room was clean and the tiling has been updated except in the bathroom. The property was a little run down you could see water damage to the outside of the buildings. The bathrooms could use some updates, but was good overall. I had to unplug the air freshener and open the windows because it was way too much. They don’t really need them unless they’re trying to cover up something. Beds are firm. I would stay again

First let's start with the good. It's close to Acadia, the price is right and you can bring your pet. The towels and pillows were both nice quality. There is a fridge and microwave in the room. The fridge does a good job and is nice and cold. The TV in the room is nice as well. Now for the bad, the room smelled damp, moldy, like wet dog, and cigarettes. They try to cover it up with plug in air fresheners which only makes it worse. The A/C units leave the rooms very very humid for some reason. We mostly ended up keeping the windows open to air the room out. The mattress must be original to the building of the motel. It was the most uncomfortable and squeaky mattress I ever had the displeasure of sleeping on. The walls are very thin and the hotel is pet friendly. So I hope you are a deep sleeper, because you will hear your neighbors and their pets so clearly its like they are in the room with you. There was also no maid service at all during our 5 day stay. We had to hunt down a maid for a towel, toilet paper and soap refills. They do provide an envelope for a tip for the maids though. My tip is provide maid service for people during a multi-day stay if you expect money in that envelope. Also do you enjoy hot showers? Well too bad for you. Luke warm water it is! Lastly, the deadbolt on the room door is purely ornamental. Never again, not even for free.

The motel was an older place, so there weren't many updated features . However, the place was very clean and comfortable. It was really all we could ask for at the price point we paid.
