"We love staying here and stay there every time we go to Cherokee. The room was what we planned this time though. Several things weren’t there or didn’t work. I really wish Rodeway would spend a little money here to fix the place up. It is the best location in Cherokee, yet treated as one of the after thoughts in investment. Please take these words to heart ♥️"
