"This room was a comped room from Harrahs Cherokee. After seeing the room, I would rather have slept in my car. The room was old and tattered and freezing cold. The heat in the room did not work and the staff couldn't do anything about it. There were no outside lights indicating it was a Best Western. Although most of...

"Not happy! Given a confirmed reservation over the phone at one price, only to have it jacked up $40 at the front desk upon check-in. The reason? "The person who gave you that price didn't know what she was doing." Then she should not be answering the phone, or at least not quoting people until she is properly trained -...

"The staff is helpful, and the public areas colorful in keeping with the area. However, the rooms are in awful shape (the shower curtains moldy - eeeew!). Our selection was based on its pet friendly status, but we won't stay at another Best Western without checking rooms out first - obviously, their franchise inspectors need to pay an immediate visit,

"Actually, this room was a comp from Harrah's Cherokee. If you have ever tried to book a room at the casino, you already know that it is just this side of impossible. This is where you seem to be shuffled off to if get a comped hotel stay.
The hotel is older, and it shows. The outside of the building...

"Best in town: The owner is such a lovely lady she never forgets a face. Best location for walking to eat breakfast comfortable atmosphere could not as for a cleaner romantic place to set up stairs on the porch and watch the people go by and listen to the water across the street go over the rocks it is so soothing and relaxing. Sometime at night the have a band up the street and you can hear it from the wigwam and it is very nice. This is a very clean place to stay no one bothers you and everyone is so nice you meet staying at this motel. I will never go anywhere and stay I will always book my room at the Wigwam...."

"Going back again next month: We've stayed at several places in Cherokee over the years, large small, but the Wigwam is a nice family motel with reasonable prices is owned by one of the nicest ladies you could ever hope to meet. Nothing fancy but clean cozy convenient location. When we go back next month this will be the 5th year we've not even looked for another motel. It feels like going home. If you get there before we do tell Caroline hi we'll see her soon."
