Property was close with a little hike. It is uphill from the main strip so be prepared. It was very basic where we were but it was clean. Stopping upstairs from other guests was a little disturbing but for the most part we were out and about so it worked for us. Cost vs what we got was good.

We had the great pleasure of staying at Gatlinburg Town Square for our first trip ever to beautiful Gatlinburg, Tennessee. Our accommodations were excellent and they resembled a condo type setting fully equipped with a kitchen, dining area with a table for 6, a living room with a beautiful gas fireplace, a bedroom with a king sized bed and a jacuzzi for two with jets, a stackable washer/dryer, a balcony with a table and 4 chairs. Along with all these things mentioned, there was everything you need for the kitchen, bathroom and laundry. The bed was exceptionally comfortable and I can’t say enough about how clean and comfortable the accommodations were. The bed linens and towels were crisp, white, spotless and comfortable. There was a beautiful indoor pool which we didn’t have time to go in but it was very nice. The location of the resort was perfect because it was in walking distance to Parkway which is the main street for activities, restaurants, clubs, shows, attractions, etc. There was a free trolly pick up and drop off right outside of our building. The free parking was enclosed, spotless and safe with an elevator leading up to the various floors perfect for those with wheelchairs, strollers or those who have trouble with stairs. As we stated before, this was our first time to Gatlinburg and we were so amazed at the fabulously fun time and the breathtaking views everywhere we went. While there, we ventured up to the Skybridge which is a must. Can’t wait to return!!! Enjoy!

No breakfast. Check in at a different location. No cleaning service. You can swap towels during a short window of the day in a different building then where your unit is. Bait and switch on the photographs. Photos do not reflect room given. Kids running up and down hallways all hours of night. No blackout curtains. Room lit up bright from hall lights all night. Biggest positive was location. Not worth what we paid though. Need to be upfront about location, rooms and deposits in listing, not just email 2 days before check in.

Room was not what I booked. The manager argued that the bed was a king and her only solution was to give me a refund. Therefore I wouldn’t have had a room because everyone was sold out.
