The only thing that ruffled my feathers was that they have new location for the office and when you actually use gps it takes you to the old office. Late check ins have no idea that there is another office to get their room key. That was upsetting but it all worked out at the end.

The staff were very pleasant. The facility is very run down. Our room reeked of Ammonia/urine. And the bathroom walls looked liked someone had wiped poop on the walls.

Amazing stay with amazing prices. The hotel was close enough to downtown Gatlinburg that you could simply walk there; no need to worry about parking. Considering the price, the room was as expected. Overall, the hotel is nice for a quick stay and the staff was very helpful.
