I stayed in the cottage for 3 nights with a friend of mine. It was a perfect base for us to explore the nearby mountain roads for daily drives, such as the Tail of the Dragon. Bill was super friendly at the front desk and gave us helpful tips such as a hike to a nearby amazing waterfall. The cottage was clean and tidy on the inside, a 70s vibe with wood paneling and furniture and a small kitchen with everything we needed. There was coffee, filters and plenty of towels. The outside could use some maintenance in terms of tidying up bushes and driveway, but we appreciated overall the great value for what was delivered. I would definitely stay again.

The price is great and the rooms are nice. You are within walking distance to a couple of restaurants.

The gentleman that checked us in was very friendly. The first room we checked into was awful honestly. It smelled like mildew and was dirty, dark, and dingy. The toilet stopped up and was then leaking water all over the floor from the base of the toilet. When we went up front to let staff know he immediately moved us to a new room/cottage which was much nicer in terms of smell and problem areas than the previous \"suite\" but was still not clean. I believe that some of the rooms might feel cleaner due to them being newer or slightly renovated. And I use the term renovated loosely because its much closer to the \"landlord special\" if you know what I mean. Overall there is a lot of mold, a lot of roaches, and a lot of hair in the shower from previous guests. I can see why there would be high reviews because I'm sure some of the rooms are quite nice and others are just...not. My husband stayed in one of the duplex houses last year and said it was very nice (but those are nearly new construction compared to the ones we stayed in this year). Just know what you're signing up for. Its a mixed bag. But you get what you pay for for under $100/night.

Service was excellent, very happy with the staff. The room was also generally very clean and pretty comfortable. The downsides were primarily in room condition. There is a lot of fit and finish that should be done to bring the rooms up to a suitable standard. I appreciate the historic nature of the motel and don't expect remodeling, though there were issues like missing/damaged trim, pretty poor paint, poor seal around the window AC, etc. I also would have appreciated black out curtains or blinds as a lot of light came through the existing, small curtains. My only complaint cleanliness wise was that I saw what appeared to be black mold growing beneath the showerhead on the wood panels. Otherwise the room was very clean.

Phillips was very clean and the guys at the desk were super friendly! The property out front had many cool sculptures. It is located close to several gas stations and fast food restaurants as well as an Ingles. In spite of being close to these things, the property was fairly quiet. Only complaint is that there is limited parking out front, however there are a few more parking spaces affiliated with the hotel behind the restaurant next door that we utilized. Overall was a clean and comfy experience.

I arrived early around 1 pm and was able to check in, the man behind the counter seemed nice and friendly. The property is very old, dark and outdated. It is not a place that I would recommend to a family. However this area caters to motorcyclist and I would stay there again for an overnight bike trip especially since they have carports for motorcycles to use. The room was also a fairly large size and easy to access.

Things I didn’t like:
The walls are very dark, the electrical was outdated and converter boxes plugged into them for 3 prong plugs.

The bathroom was somewhat updated but was not done professionally and the hot water only lasted about 5 minutes.

There was a traditional full size coffee maker with everything to make a pot of coffee but the ground coffee was in a sealed pack and I didn’t have scissors or a knife to open it.

There were ants on the nights stand both dead and alive.

The carpet was very old, dark and dirty and I was not comfortable walking barefoot on it.

This could be a very nice place to stay with some cosmetic updates. But it is a nice place to stay if you don’t care about that and want a short drive to cherahola skyway, the tail of the dragon and the moonshiner.

No ice and snow clearance

paint peeling off the walls in the shower, severely outdated. The thing that stood out the most was that they didn't clear the walkways or driveway of snow which turned to ice. If you were in a wheelchair, the ramp was covered in ice so good luck getting into the office let alone the room. I wouldn't recommend this hotel. The only decent thing was the price which is a bit much considering the condition of the property. I see a liability suit in the future for this facility.

Nothing Great

We booked the place for two nights purely based on good reviews, but unfortunately we had a different experience. Beds in the room we were in were old and extremely uncomfortable (sagged in the middle). Other furniture were old and falling apart s well. The bathroom was tiny and had barely any space to move around. Hot water flow was intermittent. Fortunately it was quite warm outside and cold showers were bearable. The shower cabin didn't have soap. The front desk person gave a used bottle of body wash (probably his personal one) for use. Historic or not, considering the relatively high room rate charged, we were hoping at least basic comforts were properly in place. We were not pleased.

The owner was friendly and gave dining suggestions for the area. The motel is old and deteriorating. The room had a musty moldy odor. The carpet was beyond worn out. The bathroom tile was broken and falling off. The grout was stained brown. In 4 days we never got clean towels. There was no body wash, shampoo, or conditioner in the shower. They never replenished cups or coffee. The bed was very stiff and creaked loudly when you turned over. The blinds were bent and damaged and the window air conditioner was filthy. They had a recliner in the room, but we didnt sit on it because of the stains others had left. Ourside the room there was old unwanted furnituture and exercize equipment in the parking space. We feel certain that if the health department inspected this place it would not pass inspection. though it was inexpensi e, I would NOT recommend staying here.

We'd previously stayed at Phillip's Historic Motel and Cottages when Ms. Jordan owned it. It was always clean, neat and tidy and she was always a delight to deal with. The motel is under new management now and is considerably run down. I took a cold shower on Saturday morning because there was no hot water, there was an old, discolored bath mat that looked like it had been used for years, and there were exposed wires in the overhead ceiling light. The TV didn't work and the owner's attitude towards us was nice one moment and then the next moment we seemed to be an inconvenience. At 10pm, when the owner and his girlfriend were sitting outside watching fireworks, I asked to use the dryer for 10 minutes. He rudely said, \"You want to use the dryer in the middle of the night?\" I didn't consider 10pm the middle of the night, especially when he and his girlfriend were clearly up and sitting outside. This will be our last time staying at Phillip's Motel. It certainly wasn't worth what we paid. We could have paid $20 more/night and stayed at a well recognized hotel chain a couple of miles away. We stayed there for old time's sake. We won't make that mistake again and we're disappointed to see the motel has become as run down as it has.

Hotel is listed as “historic” when what they really meant is “old and run down”. Granted, it is an old building, charming on the outside. However, that is where charming ends. When I checked in, the first greeting that I received from the front desk person, who I am assuming was the owner, was “well I hope your shower is working”, and proceeded to tell me that the “very small shower” had been leaking into the room below so the plumber had come to install a new one. We then went to the room which had two very old queen beds with very used thin mattresses - one so squeaky I wouldn’t even sit on it, let alone sleep in it- with dilapidated old bedding, thin as a pancake old pillows, very old carpet, dirty coffee maker, frozen over refrigerator, and a “new” shower insert that one could barely stand in let alone turn around to wash oneself. Also it had slots for a stationary glass door that was not on the shower, but an old shower curtain hung in place. It was a chilly night, and the very old wall heater kept cutting off. They also went all out with Walmart towels. Location is across from the main school bus lot, and this morning the exhaust fumes from buses was very prominent in our room. Happily, we were only there for one night!

Everyone else was booked.

I paid under 300.00 but over 200.00 from Friday night to Sunday check out before 11:00am. We arrived around 4ish-maybe 5ish Friday- went to check in got a French lesson on my last name everyone gives me. And told if I wanted to purchase a shirt with a card I’d be charged an extra 13% unless I wanted to pay cash. He was just very snarky and thought it was personable. It wasn’t.
When we walked into 105 I was greeted with a medium sized German cockroach on the headboard of the right queen sized bed. A note on the night stand asking for tips by the housekeeper and with all the crumbs and a quarter on the floor. If they are asking for tips but leaving quarters I’m sure that room wasn’t cleaned. Oh and the toilet wouldn’t stop flushing in this broom closet they call a room. I sent my hubs to ask to switch rooms. Hubs said the front desk clerk tried to make an excuse about yard work stirring up the roaches?! Um ok¿? But we got switched to 106 on the other side. More space, brighter, seemed cleaner, no visible wildlife indoors. We checked the mattresses, box springs, headboards and frames for bed bugs and sprayed the place with Lysol.
It has a cover for bikes, it’s close to the dragon, has some nice eateries near by like the dole whip place, dirty by the dozen doughnuts, country gals and papas pizza around the corner pizza buffet.
Oh and you won’t be bothered about ANYTHING (ie no toilet paper or towels) unless you ask. Oh and crap tv channels.

The electrical plugs were so wore out that they would not hold anything you plugged in.

Property is over priced for what you get. Not saying it was terrible but during our trip we stayed at much nicer places for less money. The owner was nice and seems to be geared towards bikers which we were. Parked our bikes under a car port. Rocking chairs under the carport were broken down. Room wasn’t the cleanest. The blinds on the window were broken and looked like they had been hanging there for 20 years. Tiny bathroom and the shower head was about 5 feet from the floor.
