Great hotel

Wasn’t expecting much for the price but it was surprisingly one of the best hotels we’ve stayed in.

Clean and quiet

The place needs updating and could use some overhead lighting, exhaust fans in the bathroom and a comfier bed but overall, nice stay for the area. Very nice folks and it was clean and maintained.

A place where I needed it

The motel is run well by a great cast of characters that are pleasant and helpful. But it is Whitley City KY, so don't expect too much

It was a nice stay. The decor is stuck in 1995 with the wallpaper, and room amenities, but it was clean. Maybe in 2040 they will add some EV charging stations.

People was friendly, room did need some tlc as it appeared their was a leak at some point or sprinkler system went off at some point. Also had baby roaches in bathroom. But not a horrible experience that I wouldn't recommend or stay again

I like this hotel because it's conveniently located in Whitley City by Pine Knot and Stearns, it's affordable, and it's much better/safer than the Parkland motel. Our main complaint is the cleanliness- There were hairs on the bathroom floor (and not the good kind, if you know what I mean). Also, their toilets clog easily if you use 'too much' TP.

We LOVE our rooms- they’re huge and we appreciate the microwave and fridge. Very pretty too. If we were staying more than one night we would be disappointed that the pool isn’t available. We should never see a pool advertised if it’s not truly in use. But I noticed we are only an hour and a half away from Neyland Stadium and since one of my children loves 20 minutes from here, we will most likely return. Good location and great price! The front desk clerk had been very very kind and and helpful as well.

The property is undermaintained, doors falling off the hinges, not vending service or any food available at all. No towels, and very poor service. We will never stall at this place again

Not your typical hotel

Like many small towns in rural Kentucky, affordable housing options are few and far between. This hotel also rents rooms by the week and I was told that several of their employees live at the hotel. That said, on a Saturday night there were few "customers" and I saw mostly "live-ins" -- many of whom looked like they had fallen, or came, from hard times. The hotel is older, but my room was clean and the poeple were friendly. I don't want to leave a bad review -- the hotel is meeting a need that exists. (On another note, the pool was not operational and looked like it had not been for quite some time.) Best wishes to all.

Stay Away!

The pool was closed (drained) even though it advertised as being open from Memorial Day-Labor Day. There was not any type of breakfast-was told since COVID the discontinued breakfast. Little hot water for showers- shower head was not working properly to start with- just a small trickle. The man at the front desk tried to fix it, but it did not help. Towels were stained. Blankets had cigarette burns in them even though it is a non smoking hotel. Rooms are very dated. Pillows are very worn and flat.
