The beds were comfortable. Pillow hard and uncomfortable. Floors were sticky and turned my socks black. Hubby killed a cockroach in the bathroom. Room was small and we couldn't pass each other in fro t of the bed. The lighting was glaring. Need a soap dish by the sink. Sink spattered over the vanity. Bed coverlet was stained. Housekeeping needs to mop the floors, not just sweep. Pluses. Nice firm beds

This property is located within walking distance of the Harrah's Cherokee Casino and Event Center; however, they also offer a free shuttle that runs once every hour until 1 a.m. Although the accommodations are pretty bare bones, there were no major issues.

A very average room that was overpriced. The description on the website did not match what the room looked like when we got there. Also, it’s right on the main road and it’s very noisy.

Terrible beds

First room we were given, was on ground floor as I had ask for, but only had sheer curtains, so anyone could see in. We were move to the 4th floor, said that was all they had, but parking lot was empty. Maybe 10 cars. Bed was hard,I didnt sleep much and was exhausted by the time we left. Picture of parking lot 1:Oclock in morning

The hotel was located very close to the casino - although they do offer a van shuttle to and from the casino at the top of the hour until 1am. The room was a little outdated but it was clean and comfortable.

This is a basic room. However it was clean and the beds were good and the bathroom was big. We will stay again when we are in the area. Fast check in. Was able to park in front of our hotel room door. They are remodeling and it shows, in a good way. Only real complaint the shower head was small so it was harder to get all of your body under the water at the same time. But the shower was clean and spacious.
