I think the shower situation is ridiculous with only one door and the rest of the shower open and water getting on the floor. The water pressure in the shower was terrible also.

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.
