They have done a great job with everything we have stayed there before it’s a whole lot better can’t wait to go back
What a little gem in Sylva. Had the perfect onite stay there and enjoyed walking to dinner and to the cute shops in town. Great communication re: checkin via text and very helpful and accommodating receptionist in the office. Will be back!
Close to everything downtown Sylva. Hotel is more modern than others in the area. Staff is friendly and helpful. Definitely would stay here again the next time I'm in Sylva!
Beautiful rooms and safe environment right by the police station. Very modern with nice in room amenities.

We loved our quick stop in Sylva. I loved that there was a code and no key. The communication via email and text was wonderful. The room was spotless and very accommodating. The rockers were a terrific way to rock away the stress of traveling. If you want comfort and quiet, this is the place.
The staff was excellent. Everyone was friendly and helpful.
The room was very clean and comfortable. Very walkable location. Sylva is a wonderful town, much to explore, restaurants and breweries and local shops.
We had a great stay drank coffee in the morning from a local coffee shop. We were able to walk to a few different choices for food. The hotel was quite, clean and comfortable.
Exactly as pictured! I would recommend requesting a room on the Main Street side. We were on the opposite side and the road noise was too much even with our sound machine.
