My husband and I stayed here for a quick weekend getaway. The staff was very welcoming and friendly, the hotel was in a great location near wonderful restaurants and shops, and our room was clean and felt safe. We will definitely be back and would highly recommended to anyone looking for a nice budget friendly place to stay when visiting the area.

My stay here was very pleasant ! My room
Was very clean and cozy with enough space for four people. It was very quiet, I didn’t hear much noise outside. I think it was cool that the place was off a steep cliff. The staff was very friendly and even allowed me to check in at 11 am instead of 4 which I appreciated since I flew on and drove 3 hours . Would recommend

Good. Would stay again.
Everything was good. The only issue we had was that the maid didn’t service the room or even bring new towels. We would stay here again.

This is a very cozy place to stay. I wish the parking lot near our room had been plowed but the road up to the building was well maintained.

The heat unit was extremely loud & we could not sleep. Called office & complained & asked to be moved to different room. He acknowledged the heat unit needed replacing but could not move us they were sold out. Offered space heater. It was 29 degrees outside & it did not keep us warm. Asked for refund & were denied. Room was clean but loud. Will not stay here again.

This place was absolutely perfect for what we were looking for! We love to visit Boone, NC and Blowing Rock, NC to hit up our favorite places. This was the perfect spot because it was close to shopping downtown and close to where we go. the view was amazing especially with the Christmas lights! We definitely will be coming back next year for our yearly adventure!! Thank you for being such an amazing place!

We only stayed one night, we were up there to get a Christmas tree. The place was clean. The bed was so comfy and so were the pillows. great water pressure. It snowed while we were there, so we were sketched out about the driveway but they salted it and everything was fine!

I honestly wasn’t expecting much from this older property but was pleasantly surprised at how clean and comfortable it was. The room was large and had all the bells and whistles the new places have. The water pressure in the shower was awesome! Will definitely stay there again!!

TV was very difficult to work. The air freshener smell was WAY too much. The room was huge, the bed was comfortable and the water pressure was great. Everything was probably original. Fall is the busy time in the mountains, but WAY overpriced for what you get. Darren was there to give us our keys and put a bucket of ice in the room but then went home and if we needed anything all we had to do was call him. He lives an hour away. No coffee in the morning except in your room. No elevator so ask for a lower room if you need. The view of Chetola, however, was a bonus from the second floor
