Room was really nice, bed comfortable, tv was nice. Bathroom and shower was nice with good water pressure and hot water. Jacuzzi was nice and hot but little to no jets. Breakfast was good, breakfast lady was extremely nice, helpful and approachable. Main bad thing that takes from 5 stars was the fridge. I had to pull it out to turn on a nob just to turn it on. It worked until it about 2 am and then it started to make a clicking sound that was very annoying. I had to pull it out and turned the nob off. It stopped for a few more hours than at 6 am it started again and had to pull it out unplug it. This was three times in one night I had to pull out the fridge to turn it on/off. I told the lady at the desk about it the next day but when we came back nothing was done and we basically didn’t get a fridge during out stay and it kept us up. The employees didn’t seem to care about that. It was annoying to me but if they fixed that this would be a great place. Location is beautiful right in the river and closer to Smokey mountains.

We had a wonderful stay. we got into town early, but were able to check in anyway. Our room was on the Riverside and the view was gorgeous. I was able to sit on the balcony and relax the evening away. The downstairs coffee bar was a wonderful addition to our stay.

The staff here were extremely friendly. Including the lady who attended to the breakfast area. She greeted us every morning and conversed. She had such a pleasant attitude. She made certain the breakfast areas was stocked and clean. The front desk clerk when we checked in had such a great personality and we shared some laughs about a previous stay I had at this property. The desk clerk when we checked out was not as friendly, but she was not rude. Just very short. in all, our stay was excellent, and I have always recommended. The only downfall was they did not have the room I requested 315 with the in room hot tub available. The only rooms that were left was on the 1st floor. However the next day, when I chatted with the same clerk, advised the room was now available. I thought that was so sweet that she remembered. But of course we were not going to change just for the night. but the fact that she remembered was AWESOME!
