Room was dirty. Trash in room from previous guests including soiled Q-tips on floor. Shower and commode dirty with pubic hairs, etc. Shower scum on tub and shower curtain. Television did not work.

Kim at check in was fast,courteous,helpful and great. The room was big,clean,comfy and relaxing. The breakfast consists of sausage,biscuits,gravy,eggs ,waffles,bread and some prepackage sweets. Honestly ,it wasn't great,but it was free The problem is,on the backside of the hotel,there are tents put up where people are sitting and eating all times of the night. I have no problem with this,but while we were there,the police were called because of a disturbance with them. The police were here for a very long time,and made it hard to get into our parking spot . I read in another review they are the people working on the roads eating out now fthe tents and staying at the hotel.They are loud,and some of them whistle and tell at every woman that walks by. Early of the morning,around 5-5:30 the trucks cranking up and the lights shining in the rooms are very aggravating. If this bothers you,ask to be put in the front of the hotel away from the noise. We'll ask for that next time .

We enjoyed our one night. If I may suggest one thing. The staff when we checked in were unprofessional and frankly I had some apprehensions of staying here. There was a young heavier guy eating at the desk and it just seemed a bit unprofessional.

The staff was very nice and helpful. The rooms were clean, but the rooms were very old, for example the sink faucet was not attached to the vanity. The motel hosts a lot of permanent residents. There was a large Hispanic population that seemed to live at the motel full time because they had permanent tents and grills in the parking lot. We did not leave our room after dark for safety reasons. I would stay at the Hampton Inn next door if I had to stay in the Murphy, NC area again.

The employees were great but the room was a little bit wear down. The bed covers were a little bit ripped in different places but the mattress was comfortable. Refrigerator was noisy and froze everything up. The hair dryer was missing and the ice machine was broken and the vending machines were out of stock on almost everything. But everything else was great.
