“The place is under a new management and has been remodeled. The whole place was extremely clean. We did have some problems with the keyless locking system and did not have internet for the night we stayed there. There is a restaurant that had just opened from 7:00 to 3:00 and a 24-hour convenience store that is well lit with little snacks and sodas and such in vending machines. The location is quite quiet and right off the Blue Ridgeparkway. Pretty close to an excellent restaurant Chateau……
“I was delighted to find the appearance of the hotel to look like a 1950's motel. It was so appropriate since we were going back in time to see Mt. Airy (Mayberry).
However everything was clean and new looking. The continental breakfast was wonderful with buttermilk biscuits like Grandma use to make. The receptionists were friendly and helpful.
It was a great trip and the hotel made a positive difference.”
“Property has seen better days. The ice machine on the first floor was literally full of dirt and I had to find a different one. The breakfast was the worst I’ve seen at a low-cost hotel ever. No options to purchase any items from the front desk like you would find at a Marriott property. I also don’t really care for this neighborhood and area. it didn’t feel very safe.”
