Best Hotels near Sebago Lake Scenic Overlook, Standish

April School vacation we planned a one night stay-cation at the Ramada. I should have known better, being that we live less than a few miles away from the Ramada. But, I unfortunately trusted the 3 star rating. We live near the Clarion hotel and we were looking for step up from that hotel. We were looking a simple hotel that felt safe, clean, decent food, and had a pool. The Ramada failed on all fronts! The only good thing about this hotel is the exceptionally patient staff behind the front desk. This staff has an incredibly hard job. While trying to perform their jobs, they are constantly monitoring unwelcome guests and guest who have been served far too much alcohol at their bar and restaurant. This creates a unsafe space for hotel employees and guests. We were a party of three one adult and two children under the age of 10. My children both expressed feeling unsafe while we were outside of our room. One of many incidents included a very intoxicated man who was a hotel guest at their bar. He came towards us calling my children his children and walked right into a wall, and fell down right in front of them. They have never knowingly seen a drunk person. Now thanks to our stay at the Ramada they have. This was one of many experiences we had that led us to feel unsafe outside of our room. In our room there was a pubic hair on the ice bucket tray. The rooms are dingy and bathrooms feel very worn in and dirty. We made sure our doors were bolted and secure. The doors felt secure with the exception of the patio door but we were on the 3rd floor. We did have dinner at the Seasons restaurant. Skip the food and get dessert. The desserts were really good. The mozzarella sticks we ordered only one actually had cheese in it. The tater tots were freezer burned and you could taste that even though they were smothered in cheese. Finally the pool and hot tubs. Algae around the pool platform allows for an extra slippery surface and of course fungus. The hot tubs were very cloudy and felt a layer of slime on our skin after being in them. The pool lining is lifted in many areas and has a ring of dirt around the interior edges. In the early morning we found a non guest using the pool area to bath. Next time we are looking for a average hotel for a stay-cation that feels safe, clean, decent food and a pool we will choose the Clarion near our house. Or perhaps we will splurge and get a good quality hotel elsewhere in town.

It's worth choosing a suite! It's cool to cook by yourself!

the facility was easy to locate, and staff are helpful, but since i checked in no cleaner ever come to clean my room for 2days! and i would recommend a deep cleaning of stairs and hallways which are dirty and some smell of Tabacco

The room is bigger than expected, cost-effective

We were in shock with our stay. The rooms were filthy. Black mold and mildew on the shower heads and in the groove lines on the shower wall with a black shadow on the bottom of the tub. There were hairs all over the bathroom. The floors were nasty with dirt and debris everywhere’s. The furniture in the rooms and in the main areas were all stained up. The desk chair in one of our rooms was a fake leather chair and it was completely cracked and pealed and if you sat on the chair it stuck to your clothing and pieces fell onto the floor. The rugs had not been cleaned at all. The walls and the vents were dirty even outside the room. The hall vents were black as could be around the vents, walls and ceilings. The lobby bathroom walls were dirty had old soap dripping down the wall dried and caked on. The trash can was all rusted and dirty. The floors were covered in dirt. We got two towels that had brown/red stains on them. We asked for a bag of trash and a plunger used for a back up toilet be taken down the first night of our stay and it was left outside our door because we were told housekeeping would pick it up and it sat there our whole stay. The pool and hot tube room windows were covered in green and black growth also and the worst part is the pool and hot tub chemicals burned our skin.

Breakfast is a typical American motel breakfast with sausages, bacon, yoghurt, juice, and coffee. The room was tidy, there was no microwave in the fridge, two beds, only one stool. There are enough parking spaces. Nearby is the Hannaford supermarket.

Great location tho it wasn't situation in the heart of downtown. Clean and bright room. Due to the covid the housekeeping service wasn't delivered during the 3 nights we stayed. The price was extremely expensive (actually all hotels in the whole Portland). Anyhow, great spacious room and I had a pleasant stay.
