Reviews and Ratings
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel, with comfortable rooms and friendly service. However, the dining options were limited. The location was ideal, close to the river and just a stone's throw from the Cherokee Indian tourist area. The facilities were well-maintained, but the value for money could be better.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms were cozy and had everything I needed. The service was exceptional, the location was superb, and the dining was delightful. However, I found a few drawbacks that affected my overall experience.
This hotel is a real gem! Nestled by the river, it offers a peaceful atmosphere and great views. The rooms are cozy and clean, but the dining options are somewhat limited. The service is top-notch, though, making the stay truly enjoyable.
