“Little Wings and I decided to take some time off and visit Maggie Valley and the Cherokee Nation in NC. We stayed at the Best Western Mountainbrook Inn. We were absolutely satisfied with our stay. The owner, (A J), was a complete delight from the moment we arrived til the time that we had to continue our journey. The rooms were great, the food extra tasty, I feel that A J put an extra bit of love into it. He took the time out to hand write a list of things to do and places to eat in the area. We strongly recommend this hotel and in our travels, if in the area, we will be staying again. Thank you A J. You made a our stay a wonderful experience. KUDOS.... IF YOU ARE IN MAGGIE VALLEY AND NEED A PLACE TO STAY, GIVE A J A RING AND LET HIM KNOW THAT LITTLE WINGS AND I (ED & DEBBIE LONGO) SAYS HI AND GET YOURSELF A ROOM ENJOY ENJOY ENJOY.”

“Stayed there from 06/07-14/2026.Solo motorcycle sightseeing senior touring from FL. Rode the Tail of the Dragon and way more in the area from the Inn. The Inn is popular for regular people and motorcyclists (not loud pipes mostly, you can sleep in!). Owner AJ and his wife, Ashley are great hosts. All the staff are attentive and friendly. A nice plus, if you are on a motorcycle, they have towels at the front desk specifically for bug wipe down. Not saying you should do a full grime/grease bike clean, but a bug off touch up, sure. The rooms are clean. For the shower, good pressure on the rainhead. One has to sidewise twist the handle a bit and pull straight back to get the water to flow, then back and forth to adjust temp. I am wary of hotel pools ( sometime ya get a petri dish vibe, yanno?), I asked, They have a service that comes 4x a week to check and service the pool. After a hot day ride, the pool was refreshing. Shower 1st before using the pool! Breakfast, ok, it's not a Michelin 5 star, but good; scrambled eggs (bag boil or equivalent, sausage patties, biscuits (nice and soft), milk style gravy, 4 mini waffle station, fresh fruit, cereal, oatmeal, etc. Not all B/W's have this many options. To be honest and I know its economics, the hot items don't change. Some B/W's change to mini omelets or phony looking hard fried eggs (can make a egg sausage biscuit, lol). Still, it's included w/the room. New visitor caveat. during the week every bar and restaurant closes at 9PM”
“Rating hotels is difficult, but I was pleasantly satisfied. When it comes to hotels, I typically find various things I dont like rather quickly. I found nothing that stood out to me. It was clean, smelled nice. There during Thunder in the Smokies, I was happy about the security cameras, since there were probably 100 bikes parked in there last weekend. The staff was friendly and engaging, the gentleman behind the counter made it a point to remember our names, and did. The breakfast was hot and good. I would definitely stay here again.”
