This quaint little motel was tucked away with walking distance to shops and dining and just a few miles from the main strip and beautiful creek with parking, trails and picnic areas. The staff were so very nice. A simple stay and we enjoyed it very much.
Very clean, girl at the front desk was very nice and helpful. It’s a no frills kind of place but it’s clean and affordable compared to the other places in the area. We enjoyed our stay and parking is so convenient!!! There are a few shops and restaurants within walking distance which was a big plus as well.
This was a comfortable stay. The people were very pleasant and the room was clean. The hotel is definitely dated but again clean and well managed. The bed was one of the best I had stayed in the last few years.
The room was clean and rustic.
We have stayed here before and were pleased with our last visit.
I would recommend this hotel for a romantic getaway or a young family taking their kids tubing.
There’s a great Mexican restaurant across the street. There’s also a great restaurant across the river called “Native American Brewing Company” that serves up traditional American food at reasonable prices.
We have stayed at this property before when we are in Cherokee. Nice clean room, comfy bed. We needed a downstairs room and they were able to accommodate. Good location, things to visit when walking and within driving distance of the visitors center to see elk. We will stay again
Found this little gem on a whim. Conveniently located and within walking distance to shopping and dining. Cute little coffee bar in the front lobby with a variety of coffee, creamers, teas and hot chocolate! Room was very clean and beds/pillows were comfy. High recommend!
We only stayed one night with our 2 little kids. The room was very clean, the beds were comfy and the staff were so polite. They also my kids a little goodie bag. The location was perfect. We were able to take a less than 3 minute drive to a really good burger spot up the street.
Very helpful and friendly staff. I had trouble with the TV remote, and a front staff member came to the room to help me. :-) The property is clean, safe, and had everything we needed. The room is reasonably priced. We definitely will stay here again when we come back.
