Kelly's View Motel is a Must Stay!
Rooms are spotless, the beds are comfortable and the bedding is of great quality. It offers a cozy stay, wonderful view, friendly owners and a great central location. I have stayed multiple times for multiple nights and am never disappointed.

Owner very approachable and helpful, fresh bed sheets and pillowcases, towels are clean and fairly new ( tags are new…smells clean when wet) however prefer it to be soft after laundry. We need to move around small appliance ( microwave and coffee maker as not enough electric outlet near the fridge area. Overall a good place to retire after ferry ride from NFL or a day trip to the Cabot Trail.

Great Location for exploring
Despite being located close to the highway it was a quiet stay with undisturbed sleep. Spacious room, clean comfortable - I stayed two nights. I met the host who was friendly and helpful. Good view of the bridge, you need to drive to get food, but great location to explore the Cabot trail and beyond.

Reminder to folks to eat before arriving for the night. No food in the vicinity. Restaurant is closed and for sale. Beds are comfortable and nice pillows. A tad dated but served its purpose. No security lock on door. Lock is a button on the door knob only.
