Check-in was a new one for me - we arrived for our stay around 6:30pm and found an envelope with the last name written on it taped to the outside window. Inside was a key ( and actual key, not a key card ) to the room, receipt and a parking pass. The room we stayed in ( ground level, near the swimming pool ) was ok. The lighting could be updated, same with the carpet. The bathroomnis due for an update - tub/shower paneling was loose in a few places, dings and peeling paint in a few places. The area was busy and we could definitely hear noises from the swimming pool, but it was quiet overnight. Overall, I feel like this was an ok stay for the price paid.

This was a brief get away for 1 night in Gatlinburg. I loved how close it was to the main strip, free parking, and a in room coffee maker. It served it's purpose of having a place to lay our head for 1 night. It's not fancy, and definitely dated, but for $100 it is good! Check in was the fastest I've ever had! Would definitely stay there again

Carpet and bed covering looked clean and fairly new. However, we found a lighter in the room, trash on floor behind toilet. No cold water at the sink. Light above sink had 1 out of 4 working bulbs. Pools were not yet ready for the season.

Stayed for 2 nights to walk around Gatlinburg. Absolutely no issues with parking or walking to the strip. The check-in/check-out clerk was very nice. For $70 a night after taxes, fees, and whatever else it was well worth it.

They taped our room key to the window outside. Nobody was in the office. The room SMELLED like mold and the crpet and mattresses were dirty. The lights were horrible and the shower wall had a huge crack from tub to halfway up. We never stayed in the room, went across the street and rented a room at a different hotel. Getting a refund from Expedia as this room was ridiculous!

Amazing stay with amazing prices. The hotel was close enough to downtown Gatlinburg that you could simply walk there; no need to worry about parking. Considering the price, the room was as expected. Overall, the hotel is nice for a quick stay and the staff was very helpful.
