Arrived an hour after check-in time only to find our room had not been cleaned, blanket on the floor and no sheets on the bed. The second room that was offered had a faulty lock with the door knob hanging off, requiring a person to forcibly close the door in order to close it. When asked to be refunded I was told initially I would be provided with the owners phone number to call him the next day. I was later told by the same clerk he could no longer give out the number but would take down my information and that the owner would give me a call. As I did not believe I was able to secure my room for the night I did not stay at Iron Horse Inn, driving to another hotel (Super 8) that provided a clean and secure hotel room. I would not recommend this hotel. As of this date I still have not received a call from the owner and believe I will not be reimbursed.

I’m an Iron Horsemen from NC and I’ve never heard of this place until the night I stayed there. Biker friendly ! Park your bike right in front of your room. Rooms were super clean especially the bathroom. Easy on and off hwy and the surrounding area was convent and had everything you need right there. Can’t beat a bar and restaurant right next door. Everyone working there was rock solid and friendly. Young man at the desk was courteous and accommodating. He even met us in parking lot to retrieve room keys so we didn’t even have to get off the motorcycles. Love the price and views also. Will return in the future for a longer stay.
