The location is great, being within walking distance of center of Blowing Rock. Parking is convenient being right in front of room. Room was clean and consistent with prior stays over the years. Only thing that should be improved is better quality toilet paper. The single ply is not in keeping with the overall positive expeir.

Excellent for the price. Friendly staff, great location for downtown BR and clean. It’s a little dated but that is why it’s a little cheaper I imagine. I felt totally safe as a woman traveling alone. Would definitely stay there again
