The room was clean and beautiful, overlooking the white mountains. I guess I didn't read the fine print because we were expecting some dining option. Sylvesters for dinner and the Market for breakfast were not far away.

The coffee/beverage bar in the lounge is extraordinary.
Would've appreciated some cleaning attention to the windows and screens so we could've taken full advantage of the view. I know that upkeep of the place must be all-comsuming.

The host was quite welcoming and attentive. We would definitely go back.

The building and furnishings are fascinating.

There was zero communication from the facility. No confirmation, no text updates. No one answered the phone, no answering machine either.
I wasn’t shown around when I arrived rather the owner briefly went thru their “book” and left.

I referred to the “book” for breakfast times however no one ever offered or served a breakfast.

The pictures on website are wayyyy outdated.
The property needs alot of TLC.
Interior needs an extreme deep cleaning. It smells really dirty.
Not impressed at all.
Actually very disappointed as I only frequent bed & breakfasts due to typically cleaner and more personal & friendly experience.
I would not recommend this place.

Rose was great and accommodating to us. Communication was great so if we needed to adjust the room temperature she was on it right away. The room was spacious and the bed was quite comfortable! Unfortunately we were up and out too early to have breakfast, but I have read great things about it! Overall, it was a peaceful stay and we had a great time in Maine.

Need to stay here again!!!!

The stay was great, only one night, room very comfortable. Inn is exactly what they say on their website. The owners were very accommodating and provided a quick tour before I headed to my room. In the morning the views from my room were fabulous. The breakfast was exceptional. I’m sure in late summer/ fall the outdoor space would be very welcoming but I stayed mid November and it was a bit chilly.

Rose was a lovely host and a fantastic chef. Our breakfast was amazing. However, the house is old with heating controls outside of our room that controls the whole floor. The decor was questionable and not appropriate with naked women at in the bedroom and the dining room. Not our cup of tea. There was a Bambi weaved rug in our room that was very inconvenient for luggage and not comfortable to walk on I tried to take a picture of the sunset and the windows were too dirty to get a picture. It advertised that dinner was available but it was not and restaurants are at least 20 min. Away. The home is isolated in a small town with no amenities. We would not stay there again unfortunately because we really liked Rose.

This B&B is a delight and I hope to visit again. The room was well-appointed and clean. In particular, the bathroom was well-stocked with complimentary items, better than some major hotels I've stayed at. The manager greeted me and showed me to my room when I checked in, and provided keys to the room and front door. The door locks are somewhat troublesome to use. The bed was amazing. I do regret I couldn't accommodate their limited breakfast hours because I bet it was delicious. The property is well-kept and quite scenic. I would have loved to sit in the garden with a glass of wine, but I was only in the area for the night before continuing my travels. If you're in the area to visit Ebenzer's, this is the best place to stay, hands down. Rose is running a gem of a bed and breakfast.

The Center Lovell Inn is so lovely! We only stayed for one night but I wish it were more. The room was comfortable and absolutely charming. It had everything we needed. The main Inn building was also very comfortable and homie. Breakfast was INCREDIBLE. Gardens on the grounds are outstanding and there is a gorgeous lit up outdoor area that would be wonderful day or night.

Since this was our first trip to Maine we got the overall feeling of how unique Maine is with the land, lakes and architecture. The Inn of Lovell gave us that natural experience.
Our only negative would be when we came down for breakfast each day we would have liked some heat. We wore our coats to have an absolutely delicious meal. Rose was wonderful and a gracious hostess/owner. Hopefully, we will return soon.

Our room was miserable. It smelled like mold and was very drafty, the floor was so sloping it was hard to walk. The bathroom was filthy. Black hairs and dirt all over the floor. The bed was not a queen (as advertised) but a full and hard as a rock. The only saving grace was the breakfast it was wonderful. Please review this property before renting it to others.

Center Lovell Inn: A great place to relax

Our first trip to Maine led us to the Center Lovell Inn and we were so pleased that this is where we spent five totally relaxing days. We stayed in the cottage adjoining the Inn with a private bathroom, Everything was very clean, small refrig in the room, and comfortable bed and pillows. Rose is a wonderful host and we enjoyed visiting with her during our stay. Her breakfasts were wonderful, colorful and delicious. It was a pleasure to go to the dining room each morning to see and taste what she had prepared. We especially enjoyed the banana pancakes topped with fresh, local strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries. An omelet with fried potatoes, sausage that had a maple flavor, and fresh fruit was wonderful. Five days there and five wonderful breakfasts. A hiking trail is close by that gives a wonderful view of the New Hampshire mountains. We stopped at the local historical museum down the road which was a gem and gave us much appreciation of those who settled the area. The antique store across the street was open on the weekends and very reasonable. We enjoyed traveling the roads and the beautiful scenery of woods, lakes and mountains. We also drove about 75 minutes into Portland for a day of sightseeing. I would love to come back and enjoy the peace and quiet of this natural setting again. We really appreciated the hospitality that Rose demonstrated. It was like we were staying in someone's home and we were!!

The room was not comfortable at all and each time a car passed from nearby road it would wake us up because of the noise. Also we were not informed we had to share a bathroom at the time of booking. This was not acceptable at all. Only savior was the breakfast which was nice and served hot. Definitely not worth 130 bucks i paid for 1 night

Solo weekend getaway and I could not have chosen a better place for it. The owner, Rose, made me feel at home right away. My room was cosy, clean and just what I was hoping for...quiet! While it is in the middle of nowhere so to speak, there is plenty to do if you want. To top it off, the food was phenomenal! Had breakfast both mornings and dinner my last night. Rose is a fantastic chef! She and her husband, Prince, have a wonderful place. I am looking forward to another stay...solo or not!

More than a \"stay,\" it was a memorable experience!

I selected the Center Lovell Inn because I wanted to visit with my relatives who were camping in the area. It was the closest location to their site and was about the only lodging that would fit into my budget, so I did not have high expectations. What I found out to my delight, is that the Center Lovell Inn is a destination in itself. It is absolutely lovely and charming. I did share a bath because it was the most economical, and I do miss not having television in my room, but the ambiance and extras far out-weighed those factors. The room was charming, very clean and provided a mini-fridge so I was able to have some light food on hand. WIFI is available, although the service is \"iffy\" due to the White Mountains. However, I enjoyed sitting in the inviting and comfortable common room where my WIFI signal was much stronger, and was able to watch my Netflix at night with ear-buds as I sipped my wine. The breakfast is sumptuous and made with lovely, fresh ingredients. Rose asked about my dietary limitations and accommodated me, and still prepared a breakfast beyond expectations. She was also very helpful in giving me assistance in finding my way around. Within 24 hours I had fallen in love with the Inn as well as the location. I live in Florida, so a trip back to Center Lovell Maine is not easily done, but I will recommend this special destination to friends and hope to be able to return,.

I'd known about this place for 30 years so was looking forward to my stay. Sadly, it didn't live up to my expectations. The room was cramped, the bathroom was so dark we used a lantern (provided, thank goodness) to see in the shower.

The breakfast WAS quite good, and I'm sure dinner would have been as well if it were offered on Sunday.

The B&B has been around for a while. The former owner had a contest and the lovely couple Rosie and Prince won the contest. The rooms could use some updating but the bed was firm and comfy. Rosie is a chef and breakfast was absolutely delicious. Both she and her husband are warm and welcoming to their guests. It was a great stay! We wish them all the luck in there endeavors!!!!

Weekend away...from everything

The Inn is an OLD house that creaks and squeaks and doesn't allow for total quiet when other guests are awake, so if early evening silence is golden this isn't your place. Otherwise, it's phenomenal. Prince and Rose are phenomenal innkeepers...and cooks. The breakfasts were sumptuous. Our mattress in room 6 was very hard, so that may be an issue for some. Overall, we loved it and would definitely stay here again.

This was a Nice Inn to stay at. Older property, but nicely maintained. A really nice breakfast was included and a nice view from the hotel. Our room was good except for a very squishy section of the floor. I felt like I might step through it any minute. If your looking for brand new 5 star hotel look elsewhere, but if you are looking for a charming Inn with nice owners and a nice experience, I would Recommend the Center Lovell Inn.

Quaint, friendly innkeepers

Seemed like it was out in the middle of nowhere, but turns out there's alot to do around there if you like nature. Innkeepers were friendly and helpful and it felt like we were just visiting , rather than feeling like a customer. While there, visit Ebeneezers Bar and Restaurant...we loved it there. I'd go back in a heartbeat.
