Absolutely amazing stay in downtown Gatlinburg. Walking distance to everything. It was very nice to not have to pay for parking in Gatlinburg which saved money to do extra stuff. Breakfast was great every morning, different selections as well.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We didn’t have the breakfast, the room was dirty. The staff was very unfriendly and antisocial, especially at the front desk. The fire extinguishers are not up to code. The cases around them are broke and there’s wasps nest in them. The elevator has no permit or anything from the city where the fire department and it needs to be updated and worked on. I would not suggest this hotel to anyone.

I stayed once before at this property and it was great. But on the second time around, everything horrible. However, not enough stuff, the room was unmanaged need a upgrade. Paint coming off the wall, my bathroom was dirty had to buy cleaning supplies and cleaned it up myself. Had dirty pillows cases on my bed. Decided not to returned next season. 😒

Alex

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The pool was in poor condition to the point that I reached out to the front desk 3 times to get an answer why the water was cloudy and if it was safe to use, never got an answer, the common areas had cigarettes butts for days that never got cleaned, we stayed 4 days but the dirty areas remained the same, my final complaint is that the bathroom door could not be closed, this unreported and nothing was done. One positive thing is, the location of the place is convenient to get to many attractions since it is located walking distance to most attraction in the heart of Gatlinburg.
