Very nice spot. The place is a little short on curb appeal when you first pull up, but not to worry, the room is very nice. It is very close to shops and restaurants, and a 15 minute walk to town, just as other reviewers have said. Molly was responsive to questions, and let us drop our bags off when we arrived a couple hours early. Bed is comfy, room and bathroom are spacious, and the rooftop deck is very cool.....you can see the mist over the Blue Ridge, and a great view of the Omni Grove Park Inn (a must-visit for drinks at sunset). The house is far from new and could use some touch-ups with the painting and plaster, and the "welcome book" needs a serious upgrade, but this stuff doesn't bother me. The only major issue we had was the lack of black-out shades/curtains. The beaded blinds are very cute (see photos on listing), but they don't do jack for keeping out the morning sun, which is right in your eyes. If you're not an early riser, like me, and like a dark room when sleeping, this is definitely not it. Two windows, not pictured, have no blinds at all, likely because no one can see through them, which I understand, but it allows for lots of morning light in the room. I don't think black out shades are that expensive, and they would have made my stay much much nicer. But hey, if you're an early riser, there's no problem. Molly, I hope you take the shades as a helpful suggestion, and not a sign of a bad review, which this is not.
