Red Roof Inn Asheville - Biltmore West

10/10 Excellent

"The room and property were exceptionally clean. It was also extremely pet friendly with a great pet walking area with bags and bin. There was plenty of parking, all close to the rooms. The staff were always friendly and very knowledgeable about the place and the area. It was very convenient, located near the main highway with lots of food choices nearby."

Laurel Park Inn

10/10 Excellent

"I don’t understand the terrible ratings people have left. This was a wonderful stay. The owner was so friendly,sweet and helpful. The check in process was simple. When we got to our room we were thrilled. It was spotlessly clean , the beds were super comfortable ,nice linens ,more television stations than we have at home . The air conditioning was cold and not too noisy. The bathroom was also immaculate with plenty of water pressure and hot water in the shower. The location is great. We were sad we weren’t staying longer. We will definitely be back the next time we come to Maggie Valley."

Jonathan Creek Inn

10/10 Excellent

"A Charming and Pleasant Stay! I had a very pleasant stay at this inn! Although the rooms are a little outdated, the property itself has so much charm and character. The staff was incredibly welcoming, friendly, and helpful, which made the experience even better. One of my favorite features was the beautiful creek behind the property, along with a lovely porch and a little swing chair where you can sit, relax, and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. Such a charming touch! The rooms were very clean and comfortable overall, but there are a few areas that could use improvement. The beds were a bit squeaky and could use replacing, although it didn’t bother me much since I was exhausted and fell asleep right away. The TVs could also use an upgrade to modern smart TVs that allow guests to access their streaming apps. The coffee maker was my only real disappointment. It was quite dusty on top, almost as if it hadn’t been used or cleaned in a long time. I also couldn’t figure out how to get it to work, so I ended up heating water in the microwave to make my coffee. Replacing the coffee makers would definitely be a worthwhile improvement. Despite these minor inconveniences, I truly enjoyed my stay. The charm of the property, the peaceful creekside setting, the cleanliness, and the wonderful hospitality more than made up for the outdated amenities. Overall, a lovely experience, and I would definitely recommend this inn to anyone looking for a cozy, peaceful, and charming place to sta"

Smoky Falls Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"It’s an older property with a lot of character and remodeled sometime in the last few years. The rooms were spotless and comfortable, if a little plain. Sometime during our second day the hot water in the bathroom sink stopped working but the shower was fine. The grounds were a perfect fall setting. The one thing I would recommend is that the owners add some waste disposal cans to the areas where dogs are allowed so you don’t have to look for a dumpster or put waste in a regular trash can near guest rooms. We would definitely visit again."
