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.

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

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.
