Enjoyable stay

The motel wasn’t the most attractive outside but walked in the room and it was surprisingly clean! Comfortable beds, you could smell the clean comforter, freshly cleaned and enjoyed our stay! Will definitely stay again when needed 💙

They took my reservation and then, 30 minutes later, no one was there to give me a key to my room. I ended up driving 2 hours to go home.

Hidden Gem!

First time staying here and I LOVED it! I travel with my dog and not a lot of options in the area. Lloyds was clean, quiet an welcoming. I felt very safe walking my dog at night as all areas were well lit. Will definitely stay here again.

After paying online through Expedia, we show up and were asked to pay additional fees in cash or forfeit our reservation (without refund). Our backs against the wall, we handed over the cash. Felt extremely ripped off from the start. We arrived 45 mins early and asked if room was ready, they wanted an additional fee for early check in. We said never mind we’d just kill time and then suddenly our room was ready and we could check in. Once in room, the floor is uneven (major foundation issues), toilet wouldn’t flush, tv wouldn’t turn on. Major holes in walls (with poorly attempted drywall patches). Door locks not secure feeling. I’d never book here again in a million years (and I also never leave reviews, especially negative ones, but I thought I’d try to help anyone else).

Cute little room.

Our stay was nice. Beds were super comfy. Nice young man working in the office. Our room floors were uneven but still loved the place. Rocking chairs on back porch by river was super nice. Would stay again.

Wonderful little place to stay just outside the shopping area of Cherokee. Only ten minutes to the casino by car and less than that go shopping and dining. We will return to enjoy the river view room when it is warmer!
