The lobby offers plenty of books, games, and even instruments, just waiting for some talented travelers to offer up some friendly music and good times.
Our humble building boasts some pretty cool murals, and it seems they have become a pretty popular spot for travelers to take some pretty cool pictures.
The owner's daughter, Sadie, and some friends take advantage of the cool mural backdrop next to our wall logo.
We thank artist Pat Corrigan for his awesome work on the mural skirting our building. And we think the purple lights add a little bit of flare!
Our garden catches the eye of passerby.Or maybe it is the totally awesome vintage gates we got from Portland Architectural Salvage!
We are lucky to have this lovely little outdoor hangout and garden, a great place for guests to set out some lawn chairs relax, and catch some sun and fresh air!

The cool mural that wraps around the side of the building sure is funky, but thanks to artist Flynn Costello, we also have a colorful mural of native Maine birds, and boy does it have character!
Enterprise is on the ground level, and is accessible by wheelchair and ADA friendly. 4 full-sized bunk beds makes it a perfect room for up to 8 people, or 4 if you just like to sleep with a little room to sprawl! Easy access to the lobby and kitchen too!
We kept one of the original stairwells in this old building, but updated it with some popping' blue paint. Why not? This stairwell also has a chalkboard wall leading all the way up to the 4th floor if you want to add some art of your own!
Some creative guests have left some fun, wacky, and heartfelt doodles on the chalkboard wall in the stairwell.
