McKinley Edwards Inn

The breakfast was exceptional every morning! We checked in after hours, but Marianne took the time to walk us to the room and to make sure we had everything we needed. The inn had relief innkeepers, Gene and Chris, they were absolutely amazing. They took the time to get to know us and really made our visit wonderful.

good

the only change to room would be a solid cover over glass entry door

Gary and his wife were a joy serving us for breakfast each day.

The steps were a little steep.

Clean. Friendly.

Property is nicely landscaped. Our room was clean and quiet. After hearing what would be served for breakfast, we decided to head out early and eat in Bryson City at Mountain Perk Coffee Shop. Neither of us wanted a big breakfast.

Once we started settling into the room, I noticed that there no hand soap at the sink in the bathroom. The only soap in the room was in the dispensers in the shower - inconvenient for handwashing. The light switch in the toilet/shower part of the bathroom was connected to the exhaust fan which was very loud. The floor was uneven in front of the bed - not enough to trip over but a bit unsettling as you walked across the room And speaking of uneven walking surfaces, the whole outdoor area walkways are uneven. Neither of us has trouble walking but we were both very careful where we walked. Someone with mobility issues or a child walking along and not paying close attention could easily trip and fall and get hurt badly. We stayed on the first floor so I cannot speak to the steps up to the higher floors. The website mentions that this property is within easy walking distance of downtown Bryson City. It is on the side of a mountain tucked into a blind curve with a lot of traffic. Once you start away from it, you are walking down the mountain into town and it is not an easy walk down nor would it be an easy one back up. I am thankful that we only booked one night. Live and learn!

The property was very charming.

No real complaints but it would have been nice to have the wifi information in the room and instructions for tv.
