I really wish there was an option for 2.5 stars. The furniture is cheap, the linens are cheap. There was no closet in our room, the bathroom was extremely tiny, the sink was next to the door (in the main part of the room). The carpet appeared to be very dirty while the walls, etc just had a slight look of grime. The person checking us in was super slow but another person seemed very friendly.
During past trips to the Henderson area, we've stayed at the Hampton Inn and Sleep Inn and found them both to be much better choices. (We also booked the Days Inn once but walked out, refused to stay there).

I stayed here for 2 nights recently due to a hurricane evacuation. My choices were limited because I had a dog in tow. I had stayed at a Jameson Inn in NC once before and was happy with it, so I thought I would give this one a try. I had a very good experience even though the place was pretty much full. The hotel is located on a shopping area access road. So when I found out I could easily walk to Penneys, several shoes stores and a Walmart, I was in heaven. It is also close to many food choices and a hospital.

The check in staff person was friendly, knowledgeable, efficient and over 30. The room was well-appointed and except for some spots on the carpet near the door, very clean. The wi-fi worked. The dog walking area was clearly marked and had bags and a trash can. The cleaning staff was friendly and helpful.

If anything was less than great it was the breakfast. The variety and quantity was limited if you did not want a waffle. The dining area was also far too small, so it was not easy to find a seat. Since my room had a microwave, refrigerator and coffee pot, this was not of major concern to me.

I did not get a chance to investigate the local area very much, but after this visit, I would consider it and perhaps also visit Durham. What could have been a terrible trip for me was pleasant due to this hotel.

Great experience. Not what I expected in rural, NC. Pleasantly surprised and the room was semi-updated and clean. The free breakfast and coffee was a nice touch (kids loved the fresh waffles). Nice escape from Hurricane Irene.

We are on vacation for a week in Nc and drove past the Jameson the first night. we thought it looked too expensive for our price range so we stayed at the Days Inn right behind it. The Days Inn was discusting! We switched hotels the next night and called the Jameson for a price. It was only $10 more and it was spotless. We loved the service and the nice outdoor pool. Never again will we judge a hotel by it's looks. Stay at the Jameson, you won't be disappointed!
