Rooms arent horrid, but we did had ants in the bathroom. Advertises free breakfast, but they do not have it. Only one ice machine on the second story for the entire place. Our 'view' of the river was not so good. Front staff was lazy and unfriendly. And the pool was dirty.

We originally booked a room for 2 nights online and the web showed us a room with jacuzzi and river view. We got there and had a regular room with a small tub and kudzu blocking our river view on First floor. Was not happy so we spoke to owners son who quickly moved us to the second floor with a jacuzzi and awesome view of river. He was very kind and helpful. My husband loved the river and trout fished for two days!! Very convenient to everything and very clean room. Will definitely stay there again!!

The room smelled extremely musty. Chairs and loveseat were stained extremely badly. Very outdated rooms. No breakfast, no lighting at the pool. Worst place I've stayed ever

Terrible stay

My husband and I ended up not staying at the hotel at all. The front desk person was great but the room itself was disgusting and unsafe. The blinds were completely broken and we caught a person looking in. I would like my money back but I know that wont happen. The room smelled like chemicals so badly we couldnt be in the room for more than a few minutes.
