We love a place with character, charm, and hospitality. Lloyd’s did not disappoint. The property is right on the river and we enjoyed winding down and relaxing on the porch and at the fire pit area. The room was cozy and rustic with the feel of an “old timey” cabin. We were there in February and the water took a very long time to get hot but it did eventually get to bathing temperature. Check in was smooth and Elizabeth is very knowledgeable and available on the property. Location is convenient to Bryson City, Cherokee, and Sylva (our favorite) and many waterfalls, hiking trails, etc. We would definitely stay at Lloyd’s again.

Staff and location were great. Beds were comfortable but we were disappointed because our room showed picture that had a back door leading to a deck overlooking the river. We didn’t get a room like that, just three tiny windows looking at the river. The room though, that’s a different story. It smelled musty and the wood paneling was falling off the wall. The blinds were old and dusty along with the curtains. The bathroom was worst. The shower head doesn’t go above 5 feet, the towels were dirty and there were cracks in the floor. The drywall was coming off and it just looked grungy.

Called eight times and waited almost 2 hours for someone to check us in. Called corporate twice and was hung up on without ever being answered. Property view was gorgeous. Unfortunately, we won't ever be able to enjoy it as we won't be returning. We were told by another person staying there that the only way to get anyone to answer is by calling the police. I am happy to report that we did not do that.

Nobody knew what they were doing. The place still smells of cigarette smoke from where I assume the rooms used to be smoking rooms. The bathroom tile was broken and cracked all over the place. When we checked in the person admitted that they were subbing for someone else which is fine, but then didn’t seem to know what they were doing. They were also the one cleaning the room so our rooms were not ready. They also left the cleaning supplies in the room. The ice machine was broken. The vending machine was broken all in all. I’m very grateful that we only had to stay there for one night.

Our stay was exactly what we wanted: quiet, remote, nature, and a bonfire on the river! We’ll definitely be back. If you’re looking for a quiet getaway with no frills, but a homey and cozy experience, this is it!

My husband and I were spending our first anniversary weekend here, and when we arrived the first night, for the most part everything seemed fine and the receptionist was very friendly. She let us know that the sliding door might not be working in the room and advised us that we may be able to get a discount through the site we used (Expedia) for that, which was lovely! We had no problems with this, and were enjoying our night until after I'd fallen asleep, my husband woke me up to show me he had found a bed bug in the bed, when I saw it it was crawling across his pillow. We took pictures and left immediately, tried to contact the front desk but it was about half past midnight so no one was available. We found another hotel to stay in and came back the next day to explain the situation, the same receptionist was there and was very friendly and understanding again, and immediately worked to issue a refund through Expedia. The experience with the bed bugs was horrible, and after we realized there had been other reviews of bed bugs prior, but we had not read them. I'm giving 2 stars only because the lady in the office remained kind and professional throughout the ordeal, however I cannot recommend anyone to stay in this hotel knowing that they have bed bugs!
