This is a basic motel but is clean, has easy parking, and attentive management. My only complain is a lot of local road noise throughout the night (which clearly isn’t the fault of management but travelers should know and come prepared).

This motel is in a great location for walking around Bryson City. The staff that we interacted with were kind and helpful. Our room was good with enough space to move around and a comfortable bed. The bathroom was relatively updated but kind of small and I can't imagine a larger person being able to get into the shower. And there was no way to just have the light on without the noisy fan. All in all though it was a good affordable place to stay while we explored the area.

David

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
room was very small. bathroom was sooo small, very hard to go between the sink and wall to get to the shower. only a couple wall outlets that were already full with their plugs. refrig was warm and couldnt adjust the temp. had to buy a cooler and ice to keep leftover food cold. If you want a cheap room, you get what you pay for. Also, the pictures they posted of the property were very misleading vs the real thing.
