Our stay was exactly what we wanted: quiet, remote, nature, and a bonfire on the river! We’ll definitely be back. If you’re looking for a quiet getaway with no frills, but a homey and cozy experience, this is it!

Clean room comfy quiet the staff was Awesome!!! Will stay again
Our ten pound dog was welcomed by attentive staff making check in easy. The motel is well worn and dated with smoking left overs outside. The heating was old but worked well and controlled well. The beds were very comfortable and the place quiet and dark.

The hotel is outdated and it was clean except for a couple of spiders in the room and dirty towels that the maid used to wipe down the room before we got there (I guess she forgot them) but the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful.
Bed was comfy and location easy to find, other than that if you dont have a budget and dont want to stay in a fancy hotel stay here. Bathrooms are horrible and rooms are old not updated at all and the A/C was old and full of rust.
Pool was under maintenance (but it's too cold for swimming anyways) so that didn't bother me. For the most part it was peaceful and relaxing (except for the noisy children from the Polar Express - you could easily hear them running and stomping around through the walls)

Staff was friendly. Bed very uncomfortable. Very dated. No hair dryer. Mini fridge froze our luncheon meat and milk. Ice machine didn’t work. Loved that it was dog friendly.
Beautiful river views from our porch. Check in was easy. Very nice gentleman working the desk. Very quaint decided to stay another night.

Overnight stay in the mountains. Room was clean. Shower was small. Pillows were flat and no blanket for a cold night! Good parking. Check in was smooth. Heater was good!
I had a King room with a nice little porch looking out over the river. For my purposes, this location is perfect - quiet and relatively natural environment that is still roadside and able to get to a large number of hiking trails and towns all within 15 minutes. The front desk was warm and welcoming - the guy there is chill in a friendly way.
You get what you pay for, but we were not expecting how run down and shabby this hotel is. Dirty, numerous attempted fixes, paper thin doors, and even found unused women’s diapers in our restroom cabinet. The river behind the motel, very nice staff at check in, and its location are the bright spots.
We had a great weekend getaway in the NC mountains. Will definitely be back again!!!

I liked Lloyds on the River. Here is what Lloyds is: it is rustic and perfectly fits the mountain vibe of the area. I wanted to avoid the chain motels, and this place is definitely like a mom and pop. Just about every room looks different. My room was very clean with fresh new looking bedding. The walls were a nice rustic paneling.
My one complaint was that the heater/AC unit made a horrible racket. I had to turn it off the sleep, so it got really cold in there. This might be a deal breaker for some folks, but it didn’t bother me that much. It was worth it to stay in a clean and unique motel.
So peaceful with an amazing view of the river, it was quiet and clean. Staff was friendly and the quality of the rooms for the price you can't beat. Definitely will be booking again in the future.
Needs more curtains DID NOT cover windows complete
Curtains did not completely cover windows nor was back door not fully covered they were a bit skimpy on the side. Room was clean and comfortable for the price not too bad overall but I was not happy about Curtains over window facing parking lot had about 2 to3 inch gap
