Flawes but good location and amenities

Great location and great staff but some flaws. Pros: walkable to everything, staff is super friendly, has an indoor/outdoor pool with slide which was awesome and two jacuzzis. Cons: two elevators that service 8 floors so you’re always waiting. There was a conference while we were there so maybe worse than normal. Parking garage is tight, seems damages with water and mud, and costs money (but this cost is showed ahead of time so that’s good.) Not the cleanest and seemed to have a stink bug infestation while we were there.

Staff was friendly but bed was not comfortable at all, parking was a nightmare. We have a truck and maintenance had to call people to move their car to upper levels because where they are parked is clearly marked for taller vehicles only. Room was clean but looks like when things go wrong they just patch it up but don’t pay attention to how it looks.

The room and hotel was fine. I stayed in a “Riverside” room…a “Mountain View” room may have been better. Unfortunately, there was a bbq competition going on in the parking lot across the street, so there was a lot of street noise. I realize this is not in the hotel’s control, but I would opt for a Mountain View room (away from the street) in the future. ALL of the staff were great! The location is great for walking around Gatlinburg.
