Brevard, NC Hotels from $120

Came for visit with family who are on the faculty at the music festival. My granddaughter came one night and stayed with me (out of my three-night visit). Staff (esp. front desk) were not only professionally courteous but WONDERFULLY friendly and warm, cordial, sweet and personable. They were kind to my five-year-old granddaughter, too. She and my grandson loved the sweet little swimming pool. When they came inside, one of them slipped (because she wasn't dried off enough) on the hard floor and hit her head hard. Only moments later, I noticed that vigilant hotel staff had discreetly set up a sandwich board announcing "wet surface" so no one else would slip on the water that my grandchildren brought in! The room was impeccably clean. Most hotel rooms are clean but my eagle-eyes usually catch at least one "slip-up." But this room had not a single infraction. Everything was absolutely pristine, and I realized that the housekeeping personnel are WELL-supervised. That would be the only explanation. Another thing: Several times in other hotels I've lost white blouses that I left on the unmade bed, when they got mixed up with the sheets. I was so peeved with myself. In this case, I made the same blunder, but housekeeping FOUND the blouse and neatly folded it and placed it ON TOP of the newly made bed so that I could SEE it! The complimentary breakfast was delicious and much appreciated. This hotel stay made me very, very happy and I'm a fussy guest. Kristina

After a fun day in the mtns & sliding rock & swimming at the falls we needed a nice place to end our day!
