I have never stayed at the Best Inn, but the phone number is 1-800-BESTINN.
I called and checked for their October prices, and they will be $58. 

In case you, or someone else, is interested in staying in Boone, NC, I 
highly recommend the Broyhill Inn, on the campus at Boone. It is $60/night,
year-round, and is a very nice hotel (2 double, or 1 king size bed). In fact
all this talk about the mountains has convinced my wife and I to go up to
spend a few days in Boone (look out Tweetsie, here we come....!).
