The room met our needs for layout for a family of adults, parents with adult children which I couldn't find elsewhere reasonably priced. The bathroom smelled horribly like animal but they aren't pet friendly, the bedroom also had smell but not strong. I kept bathroom fan running a lot. I did let staff know upon check out. Pool area was nice.

Nice, quick and easy

nice and clean. Simple, Easy. Right off the Main Street and perfect for us as it was a short block from the Conference Center in Gatlinburg. Parking was awesome for our room, breakfast was extremely basic - but hey, we were not expecting extravagant by any means. Just a last minute booking. Perfect for those working on a budget and needing a clean place.

NIGHT 1: Wonderful. Nice rooms, quiet, comfortable beds, beautiful pool, great location, good value on price. NIGHT 2: We were literally up from 1 a.m. to 5 a.m. Other hotel guests were partying and being loud in the garage/street below our room. I called the hotel desk twice to complain and was told that those guests were told to be quiet. After the second time and nothing was done, I asked the front desk if they were going to call the police and they said "why?" I hung up. Later in the morning, a car alarm was randomly going off and continued up until dawn. You mean to tell me that the hotel couldn't go out and find the room number on the card that hangs from the mirror and contact the owner? There is no way people could sleep. The Country Inn Suites next to this hotel had to hear all of the commotion as well. I would NEVER stay at this hotel again.

The place was clean and very conveniently located to local attractions. On site parking was decent. The only complaint we had was the lack of water pressure in the shower. We stayed in a sweet which was very roomy. I think it would be hard to beat for the price.
