The motel is old but well kept. Nothing fancy...kinda old but in good shape. Room was comfortable for the price. It has a refrigerator & microwave. New A/C heat unit worked well. Great location next to river on Parkway Drive near Dollywood Blvd. Manager was very nice & accommodating. It is my new, affordable, convenient place to stay from now on.

Everything was good. We hardly stayed in the room. Just for few hours of sleep. Saw a few complaints by others about bed bugs. But there was no such problem. Easy access for shopping and food.

My only issue was that the room was dirty. There was hair in the bed. The pillowcases had stains on them and the elevator was broken and when I asked for the first floor I got zero customer service and also the room was not as pictured. It looked like I got a room that had not been remodeled yet. Pictures did not match

Room smelled of marijuana, the power kicked when I tried to used the microwave, and our room didn’t even have a fire alarm. There were people living in the room next to Us, and would sit on the porch and talk all hours of the night. As well as smoke marijuana on the balcony where you have to walk. Terrible experience.

Room was not ready till 45min after check in time front desk said it still needed to be cleaned. This place has cockroaches, tried to call front desk but there was cockroaches on phone so Iwent to front desk and the lady acted like it wasnt a issue, she clearly knew they had bugs.We seen several bugs withinthe 1st 5minutes of being in room. We checked out and they did not want to refund us the money. Do yourself a favor and book a different place to stay.

Over all our room was decently clean for the price and it being right on the parkway at pigeon forge. Room had no coffee pot. Bed had only a sheet so I recommend taking your own blankets if you stay there. I didn’t see any bugs anywhere. For the money I would stay here again.
