The owner, John, met us at the desk and gave us a tour of the building before showing us our room. He was very friendly and welcoming. We stayed in the Daniel Smith room. It was very nice! The bed was comfortable, much more so than other places we've stayed in the past. There were extra pillows and a blanket in the closet, which we used. Both the sitting room and bedroom had black-out curtains to keep the street lamps outside from shining in. There were two flat screen TVs in our room, one in the sitting room and one in the bedroom. Both were remote-controlled. The sitting area had a sleeper sofa, but being only the two of us we didn't need it. The TV in the bedroom was the only one we watched, and it had several channels to choose from, including TBS, A&E, and the Travel Channel, all of which we watched. We also sat out on the front balcony for a while after it got dark. It was clean as well. We enjoyed sitting out there in the cool night air, talking and watching the cars go by. There were plenty of towels for us to use, and they were really soft. Today, we had lunch in the dining room onsite. We had the all-you-can-eat fried chicken with a variety of sides. The turnip greens, macaroni and cheese, and their corn bread muffins were delicious. The hotel has been modernized in respect to having bathrooms, air conditioning, heat, ceiling fans, WiFi, and flat screen televisions. But the antique sofas in the upstairs hallways and downstairs lobby as to the historical feel. The banister leading upstairs is also the original one from 1904. Also, the hotel itself is much bigger inside than it appears to be from outside. Also, it was the cleanest hotel we have stayed in. We loved our stay, and we highly recommend! A few extras I can offer anyone who interested in staying here are that while the onsite kitchen area closes at 3pm, there is a really nice restaurant about three doors down, called Ebel's. However, keep in mind reservations are recommended to ensure getting a table in a timely manner. They offer both indoor and outdoor seating, and they have live music on Saturday evenings. In addition, you don't have to stay in the hotel to dine in the dining room. It is open to the public for lunch daily. Usually they offer a meat and two or three vegetables for a set price, or Today (Sunday) they had the all-you-can-eat fried chicken (which consisted of both breast and tenders). Also, if you are in town and interested in the historical aspect of the hotel and/or downtown Carthage, I recommend taking a walk over to the historic courthouse on the square. There ware a number of markers that tell a little of the history of William Walton and the courthouse. If unlike me, you are not a history buff, there are shops on both sides of the street near the hotel. My personal favorites are the Candy Bar, Holly's, and Freestyle Canvas. Also, in regards to the hotel and all the downtown areas, there is additional parking in the new lot between the Candy Bar and Nobles. Or you can always park directly in front of the hotel, if there are spots available. If you need any other essentials while visiting, Walmart is about a mile away, along with Dollar Tree, Dollar General, Save-A-Lot, and Sav-Way (a great large neighborhood grocery).

Although the space is lovely, the bed is the only adequate sleeping space & obviously sleeps only 2. The pull out couch was extremely uncomfortable: you could feel the bars through the very thin mattress, so my sister who valiantly agreed to "sleep" there -had to sleep on top of the couch cushions in order for it to be at all tolerable. Not only was there the discomfort of the couch, but there were 2 nearby overhead lights that could not be turned off. Though we attempted to call the office re:these concerns, our calls did not go through due to no connection. My sister, who made the reservation, filed a complaint with the Operations Director, but our concerns were not heeded. Though we sisters always enjoy our time together, we were disappointed not only in our stay there, but also the lack of concern on the part of the Management.

Make sure you use your Waze app to get here. It is off the beaten path, but it is well worth the trip and I would like to say that it is worth the time too explore. Once you have navigated through your journey, you'll realize that you have come to an oasis that is green and lush and full of forest with nothing other than being surrounded by the sounds of nature, birds, and other. I selected his venue for our 32 year anniversary which did not disappoint. It's a small intimate cabin, however, has all the comforts of home the wifi is super strong and allows you to feel connected, but not so much that your not enjoying your stay. The location affords Nashville transplants or less noise seekers to allow for a brief respite from the noise and nonsense of Nashvegas! Once again Dave was extremely gracious and welcoming and we cherished our time at this great bed and breakfast. Please be advised that this a bed and breakfast and you must realize that others may be in the same structure, however you have ample space for doing your thing. We will certainly be back and we highly recommend this spot to get away.

I asked if we could sit on the porch and she just shrugged and walked off. This hotel needs a good cleaning. The porches which should have been inviting at this time of year were fifty. The carpet in our room was worn and dirty and our shower had mold in it. We stayed the entire weekend and had breakfast and supper there. The breakfast was really good and the suppers were okay but not what would expect at Red Boiling Springs. The other two historic hotels appeared to be much better. We did the entire spa which was one vibrating bed and one heat bed and a mineral bath in footed bathtubs. It was very pleasant and relaxing. After this the hosts were more polite and seemed to be happier than when we arrived. I do not recommend it.

Room 102 on 7/23-7/24/2024 This was the most disgusting stay…read moreI have EVER had in all my years of travel. I checked in with lsmith after a 12 hr day of driving & was absolutely beat. I asked for a 1st floor room which I got. It was Room 102 to be exact. Opening the door I was hit with the damp smell & mustiness of a room that had not been used in a while. I turned the ac on & went out to grab a bite to eat. When I got back, it appeared it was going to air out ok given a bit more time. I fell asleep in a comfy looking chair & woke about 3 am to use the restroom & move to the bed. The bathroom was its own nightmare. There was black mold on the ceiling & in the shower seams. I knew I would not be taking a shower in the morning. I went to use the bed & when I pulled the linens back the odor that hit me was awful! It smelled of urine & felt just moist. The mattress was totally sunken towards the middle but the smell....! I stayed awake mostly the rest of the night. When I checked out with nharri in the morning I told him the issues & he said he would issue a refund. I have since called 3 times & Leah, the manager has not responded. The room was $101.76 & I will never stay at any of the Quality Inns. I am waiting for my refund. As a member of Choice Hotels, I am going to forward my complaint to them as well.

We wanted a night out and honestly the options are few in Smithville. Evins Mill has a dinner for $75 per person for 4 courses. Take my advice and save your money. Nothing about it was fine dining. The appetizer course consists of a few slices of cheese and crackers. Salad was straight out of a bag. Chicken Bousin looked and tasted like it came from Costco. Rib eye steak was very tough and chewy. With a bottle of wine and tip, the dinner was over $230! I really wanted to like it, but, just "no".
