The property is updated and clean. A convenient location. My room had a view of back restaurant building, so not the best view. there's a cute balcony, but does lookover a busy street.

Fun atmosphere. Loved the mid century modern vibe. The postcard was a cool idea. My only real gripe - and this is a future dealbreaker for me - is no coffee in the room. I won’t stay in a hotel without a coffee maker in the room. Aside from that, the little “greenie” virtue signals were annoying, but no big deal.

I discovered that this was a refurbished motel that I knew about but never stayed at in Boone. The remodel was was great. My son raved over the beds. We slept well. We were close to everything and everywhere we needed to be. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. Parking was a breeze! The rooms were very quiet. The only downside was no in-room microwave, and no on-site breakfast except free coffee.

The bed was awesome, and the hot water lasted a long time. The retro was very cool. We will definitely be back. And you can park , right in front of your room. The ice container for each room is a mini cooler to keep ur ice. It has everything you need, for your bathroom, like shampoo, body soap, a hair dryer. Comes with iron and ironing board. It comes with a towel to clean your shoes, if you decide to go hiking. Thanks for everything!!
