Nice location if you want to stay near Asheville but still have the Smokies nearby. We had a couple of issues with this stay, there was still hair all over the bathroom floor from the previous guests and there was (hopefully) chocolate or something still on one of the nightstands, so they obviously weren't too concerned with the cleaning aspect of our stay. Also, the girl working at the desk during the evenings was either on her phone or sitting in the lobby watching tv. Never looked at us or greeted us anytime we walked by. Went down to get towels, she never looked up from her phone. However, the girl checking us in was terrific, we arrived much earlier than normal check in and she was able to accommodate us, and the gentleman at checkout was super friendly as well. If they would do better on the cleaning this would have been a really great trip.
