6/10 Good

See-June is a lovely person. Sadly, the rooms are damp-ish, windows need repairs, and the common area for breakfast is outside next to parking and worn-out. To microwave water for my tea, I needed a paper cup I’d saved from a coffee shop. That said, fridge was cold, shower hot and we slept well.

Tasty cooked to order breakfast each morning, but only a one hour window available. Staff was friendly enough, but you were not allowed to enter the lobby. I had to check in and order breakfast through a window while standing outside. The location was very conveniently located while also away from the traffic in the city. We had an awesome view of a bull elk from the property at night and in the morning. I will absolutely stay there again when I visit the area.

Outstanding place to stay. The mountain view I had while eating breakfast was outstanding. Check in was probably the easiest I've ever had anywhere. Nice, quiet and easy access to the park and river walk and the casino. I plan on staying here next time I come the Cherokee.

The breakfast taco was delicious. It was an omelet inside a warm crispy tortillas. So good! Plus fresh fruit was served. This was served on an open air porch/patio with comfy overstuffed chairs with a mountain. All made to order. Hosts were very friendly. Each room had 2 rocking chairs out front. What an enjoyable stay! Highly recommend this inn.
