Second time staying after the GSMR excursion, rooms have been clean both times. Plenty of towels, only complaint is the property is a tad outdated but owners are so nice and very good for the price.

The view of the river and chairs outside were great. However, the room and bathroom are tiny. Very old and dated but fairly clean. The traffic on the roadway is loud. There was a microwave and small frig in the room.

Was looking for place to stay close to harrahs at cheapest price. For $63 a night it was great. The back porch view of the river was amazing. And the sound of the water rushing by was so relaxing. Convenience store and dollar general both within a mile. 6 miles from the Casino. I had no troubles whatsoever.

This is a very old very basic motel. Clean, good for a nights sleep. . We were in room 103 and it didn't appear to be maintained since the 70's. Only plus is it's close to both Bryson City and Cherokee..

I really enjoyed my stay at LLoyd's on the River. The room was nice and the bed was comfortable. The staff was easy to work with and even stayed up to accommodate my late arrival. Check in and check out was very easy. The room was quite and was in a beautiful location beside a wonderful trout stream. I plan to go back next year. Perfect for a fishing trip to the NC mountains.
