Bridge Creek Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Here just overnight to visit with family, but will definitely come back. Hotel was immaculate and room was clean and comfortable. It rained a lot while we were there so an indoor pool would have been nice! Overall, great hotel!!!"

Highlander Mountain House

8/10 Good

"Great location - although lots of stairs if that's an issue. The property is beautiful and within easy walking distance to downtown Highlands. The lobby and bar looked really nice, and we were looking forward to coming back from dinner and grabbing a cocktail, and just hanging out, but were told at 730pm that there was a private party and that those areas were closed off to guests. I don't think I have ever heard of closing the lobby to guests - pretty disappointing."

Days Inn by Wyndham Clayton

2/10 Terrible

"It didn't look like much from the outside, but our room was surprisingly clean. Unfortunately, it was VERY noisy with high amounts of traffic going right by the room. There were extremely bright lights right outside the door that made it look like daylight even at night. I have a really hard time sleeping with noise and light. The A/C had a very loud ROAR every time it turned on. However, the straw that broke the camel's back was the "continental" breakfast that was offered. The coffee machine offered dark brew all the way down to light brew. I chose the dark brew, and it was not even the color of a cup of mint tea. ALL of the choices were the same. When asked, the owner couldn't explain.....or fix......the problem. I have been in these types of hotels all lot lately, and it is highly common to see this type of cheap practices being used to cut costs to the bone. For a room that was almost $200 for ONE night, it is NOT OK that they cannot even provide a clean, fresh, enjoyable breakfast when advertised as such. We will not be staying at this type of hotel ever again."

The Skyline Lodge

8/10 Good

"Pretty rustic lodgings. If you have a problem with musty old rooms, do not stay here. I had a headache within an hour and tried to change rooms, but all the rooms were the same damp smell. They even have dehumidifier machines in each room to try and mitigate the problem. I didn’t think this was worth the $$! The restaurant, however, was absolutely great. So much better than the inn in town. Literally everything on the menu was top notch."
