My stay at the hotel was overall very pleasant. The rooms were always spotless every day, big, spacious, and very clean and comfortable. However, there was a slight musty smell that was noticeable. The service provided was great, from breakfast to all cleaning services, with friendly and proactive staff, although there was an issue with some bulbs being out. The location was good for our activities, close to other buildings and Lake Athens, but there was a lingering smell of cigarettes in some areas. The dining experience was fair, with a traditional hotel continental breakfast that the staff worked hard to keep fresh and hot. The facilities were decent but could be a bit improved. The price was reasonable, considering the amenities offered.

My stay at the Best Western Plus Royal Mountain Inn & Suites was pleasant overall. The rooms were clean and comfortable, although I was a bit disappointed that my bed wasn't fresh for the second night. The service was friendly and helpful, but it would have been nice to have the room refreshed before checkout. The location exceeded our expectations and was convenient for visiting family. The dining experience was good, especially with the REAL eggs and Texas-shaped waffle for breakfast. The hotel facilities were sufficient for a comfortable stay.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms seemed recently redone and had a comfortable bed, but they smelled musty and smokey even though it was a smoke-free room. The staff was friendly, and the hotel was conveniently close to restaurants with an amazing full breakfast. However, the room was too hot despite efforts to cool it down, which was a downside.
