This was once a boarding house which is located about two blocks from the downtown stores in Waynesville. Therefore, you can walk to downtown and not have to search for parking in downtown.

Has some trouble

The owner gave us good information before arriving. He also informed us the room is ready for check in. We arrived but the room is not cleaned yet. The owner informed that he sends the cleaning crew over and will deduct 1 night room charge ( we stay 2 nights ). After coming back from dinner , the room is cleaned. This is a historic house with 1 suite room (we stayed) and 5-6 other guest rooms. Nice living room and dinner room with huge kitchen. 3 days later I had contacted with the owner to check whether he honors his promises of room change deduction but no response yet. I’ll update this review later.

Pleasant Surprise

Had to make reservation at the last minute. Everything was booked and we are glad they were. It was just perfect for us. It is a block from downtown. So no parking 🙂 The sink, stove, fridge and microwave were a blessing. Liked the automatic lights coming on in the parking lot and outside steps. The price was great!! Reccomend this highly!!!
