Inn keeper was so nice, friendly and helpful. She was a sweetheart. The room however was very dated, carpet gave me heabiegeabies. Sleeper sofa was uncomfortable even for a young child. The extra blanket was stained gross and stuffing falling out. Cleaning staff never entered the room. We were there for three nights.

Hi Cynthia, Thanks for your feedback; it's appreciated. We are spending the Winter updating this 1880 Inn, and the world pandemic also limits staff interactions. Thank you for choosing us and we hope to see you in Summer 2022 with our even fresher rooms just fifty yards from the ocean. Stay healthy and Keep Smiling.

Our stay was good. The room had the bare minimum of what we needed. But it's the location that was the best. From our room it was a 5 minute walk and our feet were in the water and our room was on the 3rd floor lol.

Property was really cute. The room we had was a queen bed with a sleeper sofa. Had a nice balcony and a full kitchen area. Very spacious for our group of 3. The location was perfect for us. A block away from the water and an easy walk to town. We drove to nubble. 5 minutes maybe. Owners were very nice and accommodating. Over the top helpful. Plenty of parking. The only thing to keep in mind is that there are steps. So if you have someone with issues you might want to ask for something on ground floor if it’s an option. The cutest thing tho??? Hee Hee. They have all the little bathroom items inside a mason jar. I love this idea. Best thing ever. :)

Cozy little inn.
We spent the first and last nights of our 12 nights in Maine at the Lynwood Inn. It is not a resort, but that’s not what we were looking for. It was perfect for our needs: a comfortable, clean place to sleep after a day of sightseeing in the lovely state of Maine. The innkeeper was very friendly and helpful. She provides a small, delicious breakfast of muffins and sweet breads along with coffee. I don’t remember if she offered tea. We visited well after the prime tourist season, so there weren’t many food choices in the area. We did have a small kitchenette, so we managed quite well. The office is not open 24 hours, so if you plan a late arrival, give the manager a courtesy call and let her know. She was very accommodating.

The Inn keeper of this property was very pleasant. The location is wonderful, very close to the beach and the town. We had a good dinner at the Sand Dollar Bar and Grille, including entertainment from Joe at the Piano Bar! Breakfast was at Sandy's. We enjoyed actually meeting and visiting with her. The drive to the Nubble Lighthouse was short and we got some great photos. A delightful small Maine coastal town.

Lynwood Inn for my birthday!!
This was a nice convenient inn. Nice to have a mini kitchen in the room. The papers left in the room, for info, and the envelope for housekeeping, looked pretty 'weathered' and stained. They need to change these out a bit more often. There was coffee left in the pot from the previous guests. Even though there are supplies to wash dishes and clean up, not everyone does so housekeeping should check. The tub looked old and outdated but the decor was nice, the towels soft, the bed comfy, and the shower head, temp, and water pressure in the shower rocked!! Awesome to be .3 miles from the beach!! Thanks so much!! Good price, I would come again!!
