    -felt like the dirt and grime was “painted over” -bathrooms did not have vents … mold problems? - the patio rails were WIDE. My 4 year olds head could fit through—and if her head can, her whole body can. Those railings need to be replaced and moved closer. This is a huge safety concern.

    Close to town free parking. Breakfast. Pool. Hot tub!

    Cleaning could've been better. Again, bedding was clean and l was happy with that, but the room itself could've been cleaner without the stains on the bedframe and curtains. Also, the pool area could've been cleaner ... there was some green algae on the floor, probably from water pooling and not being cleaned up/dealt with. I accidentally dropped by room card and was kind of grossed out by it landing on the wet, green floor. The woman at the front desk when we checked in (approx 7pm on Saturday (4/27) could've been friendlier and more welcoming. She seemed pained to have to do her job and interact with us. Thankfully the rest of the staff seemed friendlier. As another review stated, the rooms are somewhat dated, but it looks like they're currently working on that and making some improvements thru the hotel. The lobby itself and common areas are beautiful. Hopefully the remainder of the hotel will match in time. The parking garage is TIGHT. Not a deal breaker, but something to keep in mind.

    We were looking for a last minute room after unexpectedly traveling thru the Smokey's for the day and found a decent price here. For a Saturday night, it was one of the cheaper options with a rating over 8, so we went with it. Generally, we were happy with our stay for the price. The bedding was clean and looked good (we check that over immediately no matter where we stay) and overall the room was pretty clean, though we did find two stains on the side of the bed frame and on the curtains. The location was great, right off the main street, and we liked being able to stay parked at the hotel to walk down to for to get something to eat that night. The river running right by the hotel was nice as well and it had a good view of the mountains from the front of the hotel. We also liked our balcony, though it just overlooked the pool & firepit. Still a nice touch. The pool & tubs were appreciated as well and my son enjoyed the slide. The breakfast area was large with plenty of seating, which was appreciated since there were numerous large groups staying at the hotel that weekend. Breakfast was good as well with a decent selection and refilled accordingly.

    The hot water didn’t stay long. If you stay on the back side of hotel, you can hear everything coming from the pool area. So if you are trying to sleep before pool closes at 11pm you cannot.

    I loved the location of the property. We walked to almost everything!

    Rooms were pretty dated and water pressure was outrageous in the shower and the sink. Every time you turned the water on it splashed and sprayed everywhere. Lots of light coming from under the door to main hallway, but we fixed that by putting a pillow and towel in front of it.

    Very close to the Gatlinburg strip and overlooked the river.

    The rooms are in need of an update

    For those of us who only need a clean, functional hotel room to sleep this place is perfect. The location is amazing and the staff were helpful. The parking garage is very practical and made us feel safe, especially when a storm rolled in. Plus the continental breakfast was quite filling. We didn’t use the pool or gym so I can’t comment on that.
