Liked: Staff & service
This is the kind of property that would have been okay had the price matched the condition of the property, it wasn't the worst but it certainly wasn't great. It's an older property, cleaning up but it's not immaculate maybe it's just because everything just was a little rundown so I thought the price was a little high considering it was only a little bit less than what the Hampton inn was charging but for a Best Western is really kind of disappointing. I think I'm going to start scratching Best Western off my list of acceptable hotels I've had not so great experiences with them for the last three I've stated so although it was not really that clean, the staff was absolutely amazing and made up for it so I didn't see fit to complain about it

Great location. The rooms were clean and the beds were very comfortable. The casino is only about five minutes away, which made it very convenient. I would definitely stay here again in the future. Unfortunately, we didn’t get a chance to try the complimentary breakfast because we left early and forgot about it.

Breakfast was excellent, staff was very friendly and polite, parking was good bottom floor love being able to park at room door. The night was little noise sleeping, the fan wouldn't stay on to cut out the noise from outside on the heat unit. Other than that good stay would definitely stay again.

Kim at check in was fast,courteous,helpful and great. The room was big,clean,comfy and relaxing. The breakfast consists of sausage,biscuits,gravy,eggs ,waffles,bread and some prepackage sweets. Honestly ,it wasn't great,but it was free The problem is,on the backside of the hotel,there are tents put up where people are sitting and eating all times of the night. I have no problem with this,but while we were there,the police were called because of a disturbance with them. The police were here for a very long time,and made it hard to get into our parking spot . I read in another review they are the people working on the roads eating out now fthe tents and staying at the hotel.They are loud,and some of them whistle and tell at every woman that walks by. Early of the morning,around 5-5:30 the trucks cranking up and the lights shining in the rooms are very aggravating. If this bothers you,ask to be put in the front of the hotel away from the noise. We'll ask for that next time .

We enjoyed our one night. If I may suggest one thing. The staff when we checked in were unprofessional and frankly I had some apprehensions of staying here. There was a young heavier guy eating at the desk and it just seemed a bit unprofessional.

The staff was very nice and helpful. The rooms were clean, but the rooms were very old, for example the sink faucet was not attached to the vanity. The motel hosts a lot of permanent residents. There was a large Hispanic population that seemed to live at the motel full time because they had permanent tents and grills in the parking lot. We did not leave our room after dark for safety reasons. I would stay at the Hampton Inn next door if I had to stay in the Murphy, NC area again.
