Family Trip
Staff was super friendl and accommodating. Our room was big enough for a family of 6 and we didn’t feel cramped. The breakfast was better than I was expecting. There’s only one elevator but it wasn’t too bad of a wait. Water was cold at 9pm but warm in the morning. We honestly really enjoyed staying there. Not too far from everything. Would definitely stay there again.

Hotel was comfortable-unfortunately our room was right next to the elevator and there was a gymnastics competition in town. Hallway was VERY noisy-doors slamming, kids running and screaming, people talking loudly.
Not the hotel’s fault-but seems like there’s no soundproofing.

Great place to stay
Everything was great, very clean, very comfortable. It seemed like there was only one person that was taking care of the reception desk and the breakfast counter. She was working hard running around getting everyone everything they needed.

Birthday weekend
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this hotel. It is more expensive than we normally would pay. It really shouldn’t cost as much as it does. Even so, we loved staying here. It was close to historic Sylva.

no hot tub
we picked this place because it was newly remodeled and was told it had a hot tub and heated pool. it is further away from our destination than we usually stay but came here for the tub. it was not operational. so we had to drive further each day to visit out daughter and did not have use of hot tub. we absolutely would not have strayed if we had known. the site should have notified people of such.

The toilet was stopped up, I had to wait 10min. for a plunger and after plunging for about 20min and pouring hot water into it, it still did not flush properly.
