The Appalachian Motel offers a convenient and quiet place to stay near Mountain Creek and local dining options. Guests appreciate the well-situated location, with easy access to nearby activities and scenic views, especially in the morning. The rooms are basic but newly furnished, with comfortable beds and amenities that generally work well, providing good value for the price. Many guests find the rooms spacious, clean, and quiet, making it a suitable choice for a relaxed stay. The helpful and friendly manager contributes to a positive experience. However, some reviews mention issues with cleanliness, noting stained shower floors, particles on beds, and stains on the coffee machine, which detracted from the overall experience. Several guests had to bring their own towels and cleaning supplies, as room cleaning and towel exchanges were infrequent or nonexistent during their stay. The lack of breakfast, food, drinks, or vending machines was also a common point, with guests bringing their own supplies and only ice being available. While the property is more expensive, repeat visitors feel the higher price is justified by the comfort, views, and overall value. Some reviews highlight that the rooms could benefit from more thorough cleaning and better maintenance to improve guest satisfaction. Despite these issues, many guests recommend the Appalachian Motel for its location, affordability, and quiet atmosphere, with some expressing a strong desire to stay again whenever in the area.
