Carpet and bed covering looked clean and fairly new. However, we found a lighter in the room, trash on floor behind toilet. No cold water at the sink. Light above sink had 1 out of 4 working bulbs. Pools were not yet ready for the season.

Stayed for 2 nights to walk around Gatlinburg. Absolutely no issues with parking or walking to the strip. The check-in/check-out clerk was very nice. For $70 a night after taxes, fees, and whatever else it was well worth it.

They taped our room key to the window outside. Nobody was in the office. The room SMELLED like mold and the crpet and mattresses were dirty. The lights were horrible and the shower wall had a huge crack from tub to halfway up. We never stayed in the room, went across the street and rented a room at a different hotel. Getting a refund from Expedia as this room was ridiculous!

Amazing stay with amazing prices. The hotel was close enough to downtown Gatlinburg that you could simply walk there; no need to worry about parking. Considering the price, the room was as expected. Overall, the hotel is nice for a quick stay and the staff was very helpful.

Nobody was ever at front desk. Room was filthy. Didn’t have a remote to the tv and took a day before I finally got ahold of someone to bring the remote. Bathroom was awful. Door was falling apart. Bath tub drain didn’t have a stopper and the shower handle was broke. Absolutely no water pressure.
