Shiretown Hotel is the place to stay in Houlton,ME

I've stayed here 4 times in the last month and half. They are very consistent. Hospitality is welcoming, service is great, rooms are clean, and quiet. Just the way I like it.

Quiet and basic motel, clean and comfortable if a bit dated. I especially liked the sportspub on premises - good beer list and nice vibe and music for a sportspub. And the price (in winter) was right.

Room was outdated (we’d asked for a room with its own external door), bathroom floor was chipped and patchy, shower head is installed way too low and shower curtain drags on the bathtub base. Bedding was clean. Noisy location. Close to the shops. Restaurant on site was excellent.

Disappointed that the pool, fitness center, and restaurant were all closed during our stay. Very unenthusiastic help at the front desk. Bed was clean and comfortable so all in all meh.

I have stayed at this establishment and its always lovely. During this visit, there were signs that the room was not that clean. Specifically, the toilet in the bathroom and behind the ironing board was a pair of dirty underwear, clearly left by a previous guest. Again, I have stayed here plenty of times on business, but this occurrence was unsettling.

Rudest Desk Clerk EVER

Check-in was a nightmare. We arrived early and I went into the office to see how early we could check in. As I walked in, the older woman behind the desk was telling a caller on her phone not to book online and she would call her back. As she gave me her attention, she asked my name, and when I told her my name and she looked on her computer, I started to ask about options for early check in, she told me check-in was 2pm. Then she asked, “You reserved online?” I told her we had and she said, “2 o’clock it is then.” I didn’t even have the opportunity to explain that we had a child with a disability and no power at our home due to a storm and needed a place to rest. I have never encountered such rudeness before. Different person at the desk when we were able to check in—my husband said he was very pleasant.
