Very good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travellers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
Was given a key to a room that was dirty. Then worker re-directed me to a clean room, but couldn’t get a key right away. I was told i would get one later. I left and got dinner and was gone for 2 hours. Came back and worker stated still not able to give me room key. It was inconvenient to pay upfront for a room, then be given a dirty room. Then not having access to a contracted room i paid for without a key is absolutely ridiculous and unprofessional. Will never be back. You get what you pay for.
It is an older hotel, clean, no frills, beds are ok, could use an upgrade in pillows, at the base of the parkway not right on.. they have a bear that visits, we did get to see him..staff are very friendly..would stay here again
The beds were very comfortable for our one night stay. There was an issue with our ac unit, the staff was quick to exchange us to a neighboring room. Staff was very friendly, some of the best I’ve experienced in gatlinburg. Note that the location is somewhat of a walk to the strip, but being said, some awesome dining locations are located across the street from hotel.

Last minute Anniversary trip
It does not offer many amenities, but it is close to downtown Gatlinburg and it has on sight free parking. The rooms were clean but the shampoos and travel sizes were not replenished daily. There is a convenience store across the street and the flapjack breakfast 1/2 block away was awesome! It has a free trolley stop across the street as well, however given the traffic and time of year, walking is recommended. We would definitely stay there again. Those looking for a higher end motel/hotel probably would be disappointed.
Well maintained property, super nice staff, always good natured, always first with a good morning and smile, nice quiet property close to to downtown Gatlinburg
Staff was super friendly, hotel was easy to find and a convenient location to downtown for walking. The room was clean. But there is a weird smell in the room almost like its moisture building up or the room hasnt been used in a while but its manageable. Prices are affordable for a quick weekend trip.
The property is marked in google as 4 star. It’s not 1 star- it’s a motel . Ants in the bathroom. Very unhygienic. The girl in the check in has rude attitude. The overall cleanliness is horrible. The room smells like high dose of phenyl. No telephones, the towels are not clean.
