Things was not that good there when we first got there the air conditioner wasn't working they said if they moved us to another room we had to downgrade which we'd requested the jetted tub it was me and my wife and they couldn't move it they said it wasn't fair to move somebody else but luckily the maintenance man came in and he actually switched the air conditioner and got our air working but the floors were black the jetted tub was black we had to go buy a mop and we had to buy bathtub cleaner to clean the tub and to mop the floor because your feet were black walking over it and I asked them to come do it and they never did
We arrived and got checked in. We were told the only rooms available were on the 3rd floor. We then found out the elevator was out of order. We had to carry suitcases and a baby up three flights of stairs in the middle of July. Once we opened our room, it was dirty. Food on the counters, wet towels in the floor. We then had to carry everything back downstairs just to find out there were rooms available on the first floor. I didn’t appreciate being lied to and then someone questioning whether the room was cleaned or not. Definitely will not stay at this location again.
The stay was awful. Soon as I walked in, they ran out the door and stayed out there. Then coming to found out the room I reserved wasn’t available. I went to my room to open the door and the smell was bad and the room was disgusting so I asked for another room and they were so rude about it. Then I got the other room and it smelt like mold. There was filth everywhere, I couldn’t even sleep on the bed. I would go into the room and change and leave that was about it. Then when I left I got charged the damage charge. I have been calling them constantly no one answers. I have all the proof I need to get my money back. The room was already damage from the pictures I have shown. I will be calling someone over this, to put a stop to this or I will be taking them to court. That’s no way to run a business. Especially no room service to clean the room when you ask them for one. Then the pool was a green color. And I couldn’t use the toilet since the handle was broken and it kept flushing itself constantly.
No where on this app does it say anything about a damage deposit until you get there and be charged more I’m still waiting on my refund! The pool was green as well! I don’t recommend it
Just nasty all the way around. Staff was extremely rude. The only one who was nice was the Latino man who was doing laundry. One front desk lady. Never came to clean the room, change the sheets, provide clean towels, didn’t have Continental breakfast. Elevator didn’t work. The worst hotel I’ve ever stayed at. I highly wxtremely do not recommend this place of business. Howard Johnson on parkway in pigeon forge near the wax museum. If I could give it a negative star I would have given the worse rate possible.
Room smelled like some one smoked weed right before we walked in. Stunk all night long. Asked for a new room due to having kids, they said they were out. Sheets had stains, burn marks, etc. No towels, key cards quit working, elevator out of service. 0/10
The stay was fine , what i expected really, except for the dirty linens . You get what you pay for . I dont care there was holes in the wall or there was random carpet in places from poorly finished updates i guess. The staff wasnt very welcoming... but would be considered running close to being rude if not out right so given that its the south its the mountains and its a hospitality business ... but like i said you get what you pay for and i knew that going in . The stay was fine and i would even consider stay again at the price i paid but would be prepared with my own linens packed ahead of time . Just an honest review .
Walked in lobby, 1 guy sprawled out on a couch asleep. The desk clerk spent most of his time on his phone. Requested bottom floor, was given 3 floor, elevator inoperable so ask for money back and cancelled. Had to pay for one day, never again stay at Howard Johnson's motel.
The rooms definitely was NOT clean! The floors was dirty, the sheets looked just as dirty! It looked like someone was hanging out in there just minutes prior to us coming in (also smelt cologne, real strong! Like someone had just put some on while in that room)
The door that goes to the room beside us, it was missing its door handle! So definitely didn’t feel safe with knowing IF anyone is staying beside us they could EASILY get in to our room & the fact they’d be able to do it without even having to walk out of their own room! Makes it even more scary IMO!
The pool was NASTY! The inside one was nasty and way smaller than it looked from the pics they have of it!! And the one that has a splash pad part for younger kids, it was FILTHY!! It was green & just looked nasty! The “light breakfast” is JUST granola bars & coffee!!
We paid for this room for absolutely no reason at all! It was so awful that we had to leave & go to another hotel! I don’t think I’ve ever been to a hotel that’s so awful that we have to leave & completely waste our $ 100% bc the room is just to awful to stay in!!
The new clean covers that was on the bed had a cig burn hole in it! (Even tho it’s smoke free rooms!)
Would not recommend & will never ever even consider staying here again! The workers was nice & polite, but that’s about the only thing!
*I'm trying to upload all the pics I got but I don’t think it’s gonna let me!! We was HIGHLY disappointed!!*
You get what you pay for. But I only saw the check in person when I checked in and no one else. We had to pay a $75 deposit that was not explained online when I booked the room. The good thing was it was only for 1 night. I will not stay here for any time longer. The room was clean and that was the only positive for this hotel.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
This was not my initial pick for a hotel but gave it a shot. Room smelled musky, evidence of mold, sheets were torn and stained. No wash clothes provided and 1 trash can in the bathroom. After 3 days saw roaches. Ugh. Never again.
