Pleasant stay
I was pleasantly surprised by this stay. This was a quick, one night stop but the front desk staff was very friendly and helpful. Lemonade and cookies were out for guests as well as a sign with the names of guests checking in. Location was close to a lot of restaurants. Would stay again.

The reception crew was very friendly & helpful, and location was good. Just a hop-skip-and-a-jump to the main streets of downtown Forest City, Rutherfordton and about 15 miles from Lake Lure. The room was comfy and clean for a nights stay.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Super convenient to the local community college where I saw Steve Earle play an acoustic set. Only a five minute drive, so a little too far to walk. Plenty of shopping and restaurants in the area, a movie theater at a mall as well all a very short drive away. The room has cold AC and the bed was comfortable. There was a desk where I was able to get some work done while I was there. The workout room didn't have any weights but there is a nice exercise bike and treadmill. If you like Sonic it is within feet of the lobby entrance. The breakfast buffet was adequate and very similar to other hotels I've stayed in. I would stay there again if I were to come back to town.

It was fine. Staff was never working ir available but could always be found smoking out back. It was clean and comfortable and fine. For the price, i found it not worth it. If it was $100-120 nightly, i wouldve been happy. However at $170, not worth it.

Checked in looked in the room turned around and left. Very sketchy! I was put in the very back on the bottom floor. I didn’t feel safe at the location or that area. I did not stay.
