“Excellent place to stay”

Reviewed 18 June 2013 NEW

We booked our stay based on previous tripadvisor comments and we were not disappointed. When we checked in, we were given a discount just because we had to wait a few minutes for check in. We really didn't wait that long, but they offered the discount even though we didn't complain. The staff was very friendly and readily answered questions... More

“Very Convenient Location”

Reviewed 17 June 2013 NEW

So the rooms had not been cleaned yet. Let me tell you though, great job to the staff who worked extra hard to fill in the gaps! Overall, trash/debris could... More

“Town visit from Appalachian Trail hike”

Reviewed 6 May 2013

Concur about good value and clean. The front desk manager, Dawn, was very helpful including with suggestions for dining and resupply. Close to First Baptist Church trail angels who hosted hiker breakfast and shuttles to/from Unicoi Gap. Will recommend for other hikers.
