Great location, friendly staff
Our stay was great. The rooms are a bit dated and could us a remodel, but it was clean, spacious and having a balcony was great. The front staff was very friendly as well. The location was also perfect for walking around. I would recommend it to anyone wanting to stay right in the middle of everything.

TV was horrible to operate. Hotel room was very outdated. I requested a lower room close the elevator and accessible for my elderly parent and did not receive that; in fact, the room was the furthest from the elevator. I wasn't aware that there wasn't daily cleaning service. We did call and ask for clean towels and refresh of coffee and they did bring it up right away.

Liked: Staff & service
PROS- You can’t beat this place for convenience. It’s a quick walk to the main drag shopping and restaurants. No need to pay $10-$20 to park downtown because you’re practically right there. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The bed and pillows were comfortable and had clean linens. My room had a balcony that overlooked the river and those rooms are all spacious. CONS- This place is very dated and worn. Considering what a great location they have, some updates would make this a pretty sweet hotel. My room had a lot of stains on the carpet, cigarette burns on old curtains and although clean, the bathroom was smaller and kinda dreary. If you are focused on convenience to the downtown Gatlinburg area and also the park entrance, then this place serves that purpose well.
