Took 3 trips up and down the elevator before we got a key that would open the door. Overpriced because of price gouging during fall leaf season.

We came to town to move my daughter into WCU, the area is beautiful! We checked in around 10:30pm and was informed that the elevator was not working (we were on the 3rd floor) and had been moving furniture all day. We would have made other arrangements if we would have known prior to checking in. The mattress cover had a huge blood stain and you could see it through the sheets, and the shower was dirty and slippery. The walls are paper thin and we could hear our neighbors peeing in the bathroom next door.

My stay was pleasant. This is my second time coming to this establishment for a trip to the mountains. The staff is very helpful and the stay was quiet and comfortable. The room was clean and the staff EVS cleaned very well. In a perfect world I’d love if the facility had rooms that had more high tech amenities like all digital window shades or a more sophisticated air conditioning unit. What was there was normal and acceptable. I had a pleasant stay.

Check-In was awful. They ran my credit card 4 times due to a “room error” in their computer. Once the attendant worked the issue out and my balance was $0, she left the front desk to go check our room to make sure no one else was in it. WHAT??? She came back with an all clear. I got to the room and received a text message from my bank stating a fraud alert with my card. I couldn’t use my card the rest of the trip. Huge inconvenience trying to move a college student into the dorms and not being able to purchase food and supplies. I just arrived home and checked my bank account. The hotel charged me twice!

We had a great stay. Our room was clean, and the hallways even had a fresh clean smell. Breakfast was plentiful with sausage, bacon, scrambled eggs, potatoes, and waffle maker, cereal, juice, milk, coffee plus standard grab and go type items as well. Check in/out was a breeze. We stayed in the same hotel last year to attend the Singing in the Smokies. It is a recently renovated hotel that was just as nice this year as it was last year.
