Overall, the stay was good. Location was amazing- walking distance to just about any part of Gatlinburg. Staff was very informative upon arrival, but at checkout the staff did not want to hear about what was not good about the room. Bed was horrible, in room jacuzzi tub appeared to leak on the floor, we could hear everything from the people down the hall and next doors to us and per rules no smoking in or outside the balcony. The smell of marijuana came through the vents multiple times through our 3 night stay. Most definitely will stay in the area again, but will choose a different place to stay where it is more quiet and intimate next time.

The room was clean and comfortable. The elevators were a little on the dirty end. People had spilled stuff and no one had cleaned it yet. The front staff was very friendly and helpful. It’s a great pool for kids.

Not happy with the fact that I paid for and reserved a mountainside room & received a room on the opposite side of the hotel. When I called down after I noticed the change, they said they were simply "unavailable." Not OK.

It was better than some

Hotel needs updates. Elevator was very slow. Room with hot tub has carpet so stinks when wet. Balcony on backside doesn't have a great view. Breakfast was ok and FREE. Parking was about $17 a night. Make sure you have small to medium-sized vehicle low ceiling in Parking garage. Overall the location was great and if needed to stay here I would but not first on my list possibilities.

The beds are terrible, very hard and seem to be old. The elevators are very slow. We were there in late September and we saw multiple people bringing in space fans because the upper rooms were hot. Even though the hotel was mostly empty they put us on the end that was by a loud haunted house. The woman that checked us in was snippy when I asked why there is a $16.00+ extra charge for daily parking.

The breakfast menu was good. The hotel is overall very dated. The parking area is super tight. Very hard to get in and out of parking spots. The elevator was also very slow. We liked how we could walk right out of the hotel and onto the main strip of Gatlinburg but in general it felt dated.
