Serious issues with this property. Need to discuss with someone on a phone call. 704-277-4109
Ron, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Stayed for visit to App State for open house. Stay was very comfortable
Stephanie, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

It’s a bit dated but the room we stayed in was big and had a private balcony with a nice view. Everything was clean and bed was comfortable. The office closed at 5 and we were going to be later than that, so the staff was kind enough to leave our key in an envelope inside a small mailbox on the side of the building. The cost was a bit pricey for this type of hotel and room, but we stayed on a Saturday night and weekend rates are usually higher. Other hotels in Boone and Blowing Rock were more expensive, which is why we chose Cliff Dwellers.
Ronald, 1-night trip

My husband and I stayed here for a quick weekend getaway. The staff was very welcoming and friendly, the hotel was in a great location near wonderful restaurants and shops, and our room was clean and felt safe. We will definitely be back and would highly recommended to anyone looking for a nice budget friendly place to stay when visiting the area.

Very happy with our stay

Room was nice and spacious, bed was comfortable. Room was very quiet. Balcony was big and spacious and the view was great. The only thing that wasn't great was that the shower ran out of hot water. Check in employee was very friendly.

sonya, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The property was older, but the room was clean and quiet. The balcony wasn’t really a balcony. It was just chairs outside the room door. But the scenery was nice and we enjoyed our stay.

Nice quiet family owned place. Staff was very informative and helpful. Well kept and clean rooms. Water pressure and temperature was great. Definitely will be staying here when I travel up that way.
Caleb, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Not even quaint… old motel at 200+a night - no room service or making the beds, no fresh towels, no ambiance and no regular tv service (streaming only) Haven’t stayed in a place like that since the early 60’s… if it hadn’t been for the July 4th weekend I might have found another room, but alas…
Hugo, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good. Would stay again.

Everything was good. The only issue we had was that the maid didn’t service the room or even bring new towels. We would stay here again.
Greg, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

This is a very cozy place to stay. I wish the parking lot near our room had been plowed but the road up to the building was well maintained.
