A little intimidating at first but past the first impressions, the property was everything that you need. Clean room, great front staff, the key to the door worked every time, hot shower water, all was fantastic.

Three stars does not mean it was a bad experience. The place is fine. Clean, close to town. But it is just not a top-notch hotel. It is basic. You are paying for a cheap hotel and a cheap hotel is what you get.

No hair dryer no iron nosmoke detector room very small need more pillows but good location
It is an old school roadside motel. The current owners have done a great job renovating it. Great value. The rooms are on the small side but that is just due to the age of the place.
The location was great, practically in the middle of downtown. The absolute best part however was the very sweet man running the place. We were very late arriving, so he called us to make sure we were still coming and then waited up for us to nearly 1 in the morning! REALLY sweet.
This is a great place to stay in a beautiful mountain town. Downtown Sylva is walkable from the hotel and full of dining and shopping options. The rooms are clean and comfortable. Will definitely stay here again.
The Economy Inn is my go-to anytime I make a quick trip to Sylva and western North Carolina. It’s quiet, clean, and easily walkable to the awesome shops and restaurants in town.
