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.

Beautiful building and room and very clean but no staff. We knew the restaurant was closed but the bar was supposed to be open in the evening and it never opened. There are no coffee makers in the room and no staff were around in the morning so guests gathered in the lobby waiting for coffee and to be able to check out. We ended up leaving our key on the desk as no one was there by 10am. It could be a beautiful place but it felt like a strange ghost town in both the evening and the morning.

Enjoyed our stay, but would not stay on the 2nd floor again. Walls are too thin. Also, a minor inconvenience, our reservations with Expedia said King Suite with full size refrigerator. We were given a King room with a mini frig. There really needs to be clarification with Expedia.

Peeling paint

We went to the front desk after our first night and asked them to cancel the last two nights. The room was dirty and had paint peeling off the walls. The shower curtain was dirty too. She canceled our last two nights and said she would refund our money.

I really wanted to love this hotel, but we felt every year of its 100 years of age. The floors were creaky, the walls were thin, the mattress may have been original and the bed was terribly squeaky. It didn’t feel as clean as it could be (previous guest left popcorn on the floor and hair in the tub drain that greeted us upon arrival). It was charming for some of these same reasons, but I wouldn’t sacrifice another night’s sleep here again.
