This is an older well maintained motel. Our room was clean, quiet, and had a view of the mountains. The free breakfast was much more than just donuts and coffee. Staff was very friendly, attentive and helpful. Great place to stay for business or leisure.

Great stay but breakfast closes early on Sun

Overall it was a great convenient one-night quick stay for us. Convenient location in Townsend. Room was clean and comfortable. Only minor gripe was that it would've been nice to get a heads-up that they apparently stop their breakfast service a half-hour early on Sundays, as we didn't see that stated anywhere so missed the breakfast when we came down at the time that was posted.

They need to get the ice machine fixed. It's kind of aggravating when you are paying $150 a night. Otherwise it was pretty nice.

Stay at the highland manor. Shelvie is a sweethear

Our room had a fire place. We did not use it but when we check in and entered our room it smelled like soot! We had to open windows and air it out for the first to days. I had a car freshener in my car that I bought into the room. I purchased a candle near by and turned it on in the room. Things were better by the third day.
