Overall our stay was good the room was clean, and newly renovated, and there was a bear visit every night..you should watch out for your pet. upon check-in, we were told there was an additional fee of $68 apparently after speaking with expedia that was a reservation fee which we were not aware of...we just thought we had already paid the full room fee...not a deal breaker though. As far as the room it was clean the bed was pretty hard, not the pillow-top mattress we have at home, but your average motel mattress. The motel is at the end of Gatlinburg towards the Cades Cove end, for older adults we could walk down to Gatlinburg but it was difficult to walk back. They are pet friendly, which was good, but we were on the 2nd floor so it was hard to get our luggage and stuff up the steps (no elevator) and down when we were leaving. We had read the reviews and didn't have any issues with the room being clean, the staff was always courteous..even the guys doing the construction work were nice! We knew there was not a coffee pot so we took a small one for morning coffee because there is not any kind of breakfast. The pet area is also not clean, not the motel's fault people do not pick up behind their pets! Overall our stay was great, clean room with clean towels everyday...sometimes they do run out of wash cloths, but not a deal breaker we had a wonderful time!

It’s clear this room was just renovated, there are no outlets covering the exposed wiring for the “fireplace”. The hot water doesn’t turn on, it stinks of fresh paint. The ac unit isn’t even attached to the wall, I can see the sidewalk sitting on the bed through a crack…the outlet for the unit is sitting on the floor and not even in the wall AND it does not heat, like it won’t turn on at all. There was also no comforter for the bed. When I went to the desk about just the smallest of these issues they said they were sending someone about the water and heat but no one ever came or contacted me again. The trash folks came at 240 am, blaring music to dump 3 large bins at the front of the property and just ended up spilling so much rubbish to the ground. It really is no wonder a big bear was walking around here during the night when there’s so much waste laying around. Can not NOT recommend this place enough. Horribly uncomfortable, cold and loud.

Cheapest hotel on our entire trip! But, you get what you pay for. They're going thru renovations currently, so the property looks a little iffy. In the edge of town, so if you’re lucky you’ll see some wildlife.

This property was being renovated when I stayed there, so it was a bit of a mess. It may have been damaged by Helene but I left before the hurricane arrived, so I don't know for sure. Off season rate was cheap, and it's located right by the park entrance-- you don't have to fight the horrible Gatlinburg traffic. Bears wandered the property but didn't harm any people or pets.A reminder to please use bear-proof trash receptacles in and near the park!!

The dog park was convenient if you are traveling with a pet. We saw several black bears on and around the property. There appeared to be several extended stay guest at this particular property. The complete staff was excellent though.

This is a very cute hotel, newly remodeled. My room was better than expected. It is super close to all of the shops but far enough away that the noise was not an issue. I highly recommend this hotel and would stay again

When I went to the assigned room the door was open and the maintenance guy was sitting in the chair in the corner of the room watching tv and on his phone. I was switched to another room because he was in there working. Tv in the new room would stay on all of 2 seconds then turn off constantly. Informed the front desk and I was told maintenance would be by. I am checking out in a few hours and maintenance never came and still no working tv.

The staff were amazing and exceptionally friendly. The area of the motel was a bit sketchy and I didn’t feel safe at night to take my pet out. The pet area was very smelly and people didn’t clean up after their pets. There are renovations going on, our room was beautiful. The bed was uncomfortable, there was tissue stuff in/over the peep hole. No fault to the hotel but the people in the next room and a few rooms down stayed out in the walkway until 2:30am on their phone, talking, and yelling loudly both nights, and it echoed keeping us up most of the night. The parking lot was dirty and the parking is ridiculous. I do believe there were people living there, and seemed to be people hanging around that didn’t belong there making me feel unsure and unsafe. We checked out this morning and our sink didn’t drain, the jetted tub gurgled all night, and when we turned our keys in the office was full of many customers that their rooms had sewage back up in their rooms, ruining some of their personal items, and they could no longer stay in their rooms.

Clean, newly renovated rooms, parking was tight. Walking distance to Gatlinburg trail, we saw a bear almost every day for a week, several times in motel property. Dog friendly.
