The room was big and beds are good and comfortable. The sink, bathtub and toilet seats were low like it was designed for children.
Breakfast can be called snacks.
The night clerks were nice and friendly.

We were a bit hesitant to book since the only option left was a smoking room, but to our surprise, it didn’t smell at all or show any signs of being used as one. That was a huge relief!
The bathroom was quite small, but the beds were comfortable and we slept well. The complimentary bag left on the table was a really nice touch and made us feel welcome.
Even though we didn’t arrive on motorcycles, it was great to see that the hotel offers rags at the front desk to help clean off bikes. Coming from a biker family, I really appreciated that thoughtful gesture.
Overall, it was a pleasant stay and we’d be happy to return.

In our room, the beds were the most uncomfortable beds I've slept on in a long time. Also, the bathrooms for some mysterious reason, have no exhaust vent. There's a small, 4x6 vent-like thing in the wall, but that is definitely not an exhaust vent. The property is located very close to the Blue Ridge Parkway, which is great. Staff was very friendly. They just need to upgrade the beds and put some exhaust fans in the rooms and that will help.

There is construction in progress next to this property. Storage containers making the parking very limited and difficult. During the day the area is noisy with construction workers blasting loud music.

When we first got there the ladies in the office instantly started picking on my husband about feeding him to a bear! We absolutely loved it! They were so sweet and showed so much southern kindness to us! The rooms were clean, the beds were soft and comfortable, the view over looking the mountains was breathtaking! We came down for mini nats in Maggie valley! The only negative I would say is there is no room for trailer parking at all. We made it work and the ladies in the office were a great help! Definitely will be booking again for next years show!
