The hotel is modern and well situated near the downtown quaint part of blowing rock. The room is large and well equipped. It has an excellent bathroom (set up, lighting, modernized shower enclosure, etc.). the restaurant downstairs is pretty decent and not overpriced. We noticed that the nightstands on the closet side are a little small but that's not a big problem. The included breakfast is adequate, but not amazing. Ideally, we like our hotels to have a fitness center, but in this location, you just get all your working out, walking around in town and on the local trails. Overall, we would definitely stay here again!
