Very Good

Everything was great, I had a wonderful King bed with a view of a pasture that brought in deer at sunset and Monica the Manager, was so warm and welcoming. I was traveling alone, and she make a big difference in my trip to Hendersonville. Their location was fabulous too. I'm so glad I made such a great choice staying here!

Great location. Clean rooms - newly renovated! Friendly staff. Loved our time here.
This motel is a hidden gem! The rooms are clean and recently remodeled. The manager makes the stay, though. She is friendly and knowledgeable. We spent the night on Christmas, and she had called around to find out what local restaurants were open. The building sits of the road, so it is quiet but also a bit tricky to find. But it is worth the trouble!

Very nice and clean room, very friendly staff. Convenient location. The only reason it's not a 5 star for me is because there was no coffee pot in the room (although they do have fresh coffee in the office every morning) but I work 3rd shift but there are plenty of coffee shops nearby. Will definitely stay there again!
Housekeeping came in everyday and made the bed, left clean linens and cleaned the bathroom. We recently stayed in a “high end” hotel in Hendersonville that did NOT provide that level of service. If looking for a place to spend the night I highly recommend.

Great place near walking trail and lake. Staff is phenomenal. Mrs Monica Morgan is a very pleasant and friendly hostess that is there to assist you and tell about what there is do do around the area.
Nice location close to Nashville without all the craziness of staying in Nashville. Very quite rooms. Bed and pillows were hard. Breakfast was grab and go items. Nice hot shower. Housekeeping did great.
