The room was spotless, and the location was conveniently close to everything. Check-in was smooth, and the staff member who assisted us was very friendly, though I didn’t catch his name. We stayed for just one night, and overall, it was a good experience. However, during check-out, the staff member on duty seemed preoccupied, possibly with her phone, and her customer service wasn’t as friendly. Aside from that, everything else was great.

This property has all the potential, but failed in cleanliness. Stayed here one night between Christmas and New Years for a quick getaway. The room had been renovated, but the aesthetic just didn't match the location or lobby. Pros: Lobby was clean and very inviting Staff was super friendly / even allowed me to park there a few hours before check in You can't beat the location in downtown Gburg Very quiet and safe Public firepit area Private balconies with nice chairs Large shower Cons: Requested new bedding after finding a reddish/brown stain on the sheets and piece at the bottom of the bed. King bed initially had two very unkept pillows thrown on the bed. Headboard was absolutely disgusting/peeling. AC/Heat unit was extremely loud and sounded like it was about to give out. It also had a build up of black dust on the vents. The light switches in the bathroom were exposed and did not have a plate on them. The lower power outlet by the sink had been melted and was black/burnt. The walls had stains on them by the toilet paper holder and by the main entry door. I really wanted to like this property based on the staff and location, but for $175/nightly on a weeknight I found the cleanliness and upkeep to be unacceptable. The cons were all easy fixes. I cannot recommend staying here until those are fixed or the price reflects as such.

Location is very convenient. Can walk to just about anywhere in Gatlinburg. A few small problems with the room. Safety catch on the door was missing and the tub faucet leaked. Completed self checkout and indicated I would be leaving at 11:00am. Left to do some shopping, when I got back a little after 10:00am, house keeping was in my room, had torn everything apart getting the room ready for the next guess I suppose. I had the do not disturb sign on the door and that was ignored. She spoke zero English, I showed her my room keys, she just shrugged her shoulders. I was planning on relaxing for a few minutes before I got on the road. Not the end of the world but fairly annoying. Overall I probably would stay here again.

The only thing i would suggest would be to address the hot water on the 3rd floor. Took about 10-15 minutes to go from room temp to hot. But other than that, a fantastic stay.
