Love the location, the old building, staff were great and helped with any thing I wanted or wanted to know about the area. I have stayed there before and will again.

Cute quaint hotel

A very quaint hotel stay for a little more than a budget hotel. Very nice old-school feel, while being well kept up.

Elisabeth, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

This was about our 10th stay. We have family in the area so we’re in Black Mountain several times a year. Our stays at the hotel are usually OK, but this was an exception. Waited to check in— no one else in line, no staff at desk. No staff available for 15-20 min. No body wash in shower though 2 shampoos; last straw was a previous visitor’s boxer briefs hung on bathroom door hook
Mary, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Not a welcoming vibe - restaurant is shut down, chairs up on tables. Our room was stark - not a historical inn vibe at all, more like a college dorm. Not a single piece of art on the walls, just blank white with a hard backed chair in the corner.

very good location.
SOLANGE, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The property is conveniently located in walking distance to downtown Black Mountain, NC. It's hard to get a good feel of a hotel when looking just at photographs. The room was very small. And I'm not convinced it was a Queen size bed. Although they claim all of their rooms are Queen size, unless you pay extra for the king. The rooms are not well kept Resulting in large cracks and small holes in the ceiling and walls so i cut them some slack due to the recent hurricane flooding in the area, although I'm not sure it affected this hotel. On the plus side, it is a dog friendly hotel, but for the price, I don't think you get your money's worth.
Ira, 1-night trip
