Please reserve your room at the University Inn & Academic Suites. The inn has limited rooms available, so once they reach their capacity additional rooms will be reserved for you at the Black Bear Inn (their sister property).

The difference between the two hotels is their proximity to the University of Maine. Also, the Black Bear Inn provides a continental breakfast as opposed to a full breakfast.
