The stories on the walls and other little quirks about the hotel was great to look at and to see/find. My wife and I really enjoyed our stay here and learning about the Appalachian trails. Great spot and very comforting it’s a family and safe place I never worried about any of my belongings there. 10/10 WOULD RECOMMEND!!
