Clean comfy room
Very clean and modern room with 2 comfy queen beds. The set up of the room was great and had the amenities we needed; such as mini frig, microwave, and keurig coffee pot with a variety of coffee and teas. Clean bathroom with large tub and shower combo with Dove body wash, shampoo, conditioner, lotion, and liquid hand soap.

We feel so fortunate that our hotel in Firest City had (and kept) power following Helene. It was such a safe haven for us and our friends who we came up to visit for their wedding in Rutherfordton. Their cabin was flooded and without power. The breakfast every morning was exceptional!!! Thank you.

Pleasant stay
I was pleasantly surprised by this stay. This was a quick, one night stop but the front desk staff was very friendly and helpful. Lemonade and cookies were out for guests as well as a sign with the names of guests checking in. Location was close to a lot of restaurants. Would stay again.

The reception crew was very friendly & helpful, and location was good. Just a hop-skip-and-a-jump to the main streets of downtown Forest City, Rutherfordton and about 15 miles from Lake Lure. The room was comfy and clean for a nights stay.
