Ok if you are looking for a luxurious place move along. If you’re looking for a cute inexpensive, beautiful little area this is it. It’s like grandma’s bedroom. It has vintage vibe we stayed here two nights to do some Thrifting and antiquing, and it was the perfect spot. Sitting outside with the chickens and roosters and 2 goats in the morning perfect. Beautiful views. Convenience of things we wanted to do. Nice and quiet

Hello Valentina. Thank you for choosing Smoketown Inn during your visit to the area. We believe we have something for everyone, standard rooms that are a great value, deluxe rooms with recliners, and premium suites with fireplace, 2 person soaking tubs etc. We hope to see you again soon. Mike

After my stay i really wanted to leave my suggestions written somewhere but there was nowhere to write them. So here are my suggestions: keep the covered in the area in the back nonsmoking. Its real unpleasant walking through there with smokers standing at the door. Since the free lobby coffee isnt available until 7 am, itd be great to have a coffee pot in the room. It would also be great if there was a hair dryer in the room since that seems to be a staples with all other hotels. If youre going to place a sign on the mini fridge for snacks and drinks there really should be snacks and drinks. Itd be great to know ahead of time that u only use well water. It would have been preferred to have a plastic baggie or insert for the ice bucket. I got ice and let it melt to drink. The soda machine was convenient. And the microwave was nice and clean to warm up my double coffee i purchased around the corner. Other than that it was a quiet, quaint place.

Hello Melisa and thank you for choosing Smoketown Inn.Thank you for the suggestion about moving the smoking area away from the back door. There was a hair dryer in your room though not connected to the wall, but under the sink, behind the vanity door. Yes, as for the snacks, we only put them out after April as that is when out busy season starts. Regarding the ice bucket, we personally wipe them out and make sure they are clean, with the ice coming from the same well as does all the water. I hope this addresses your concerns for the future. Hope to see you again. Mike

Hello John. Thank you for highlighting many of the attributes we strive to provide here at Smoketown Inn.Glad you had a good nights sleep, it is what you pay for, but often does not happen. When a guest says they had a good night's sleep, I often respond with, "that is music to an innkeeper's ears". Mike

This is a very clean hotel with amazing staff. It is kind of vintage and has everything you may for a very good price. The hot water had a very strong metallic smell and the mattress was a little uncomfortable but overall it is a great place to stay.

The place was clean and the decorations was like staying at your grandmas. Did love the 2 recliners in the room. Unfortunately our room was very musty smelling and even bought room fresher to help the smell. The breakfast was coffee, yogurt, and hostess cakes and muffins not much to it!! The staff was very nice and rooms were clean

Lora. Thank you for your review. Yes, we are a quiet little in with clean rooms. We do not advertise a full breakfast, we only say, "coffee and pastry". With the hot and humid summer, one would have to turn the A/C on high in order to reduce the humidity in the room. Fall is on the way!
