What I didn't like was being woke up on the day we was leaving before 8 am of a child that making noises out side our room which come to find out, it was the child that belong to the housekeeper that was getting ready to start cleaning rooms. That was not right at all.

It served it's purpose, bed was clean, room was clean, staff were friendly and helpful. Our room, at least, needed a massive overhaul. Most of the outlets had nothing behind them. If you plugged in a charger, it would just fall out. The one functional outlet we found was charred. 😬 It was very cold during our stay. The display was broken on our hvac unit so we couldn't tell the temp. We put the heat on the lowest setting, within 3 minutes it was suffocating. If you turned the heat off, within 3 minutes we were shivering. We didn't utilize any facilities or eat there so can't comment on that. I just think it needs a massive update

The staff was friendly and helpful, and the indoor pool and hot tub were great. However, the maid service was inconsistent, with no daily visits, and no bed making or vacuuming on weekends. Additionally, towels had to be collected from the front desk, although the staff was pleasant about it.

This is a cozy little place. The staff are so friendly and welcoming. The amenities are nice. The beds were comfortable and overall it was a great stay for the price we paid. There is a trolley stop at the hotel if you don't want to walk to the strip. You can ride the trolley free all around Gatlinburg and it will bring you back to the hotel. It runs all day, so it is very convenient. The grounds and little creek are so pretty. The room was outdated and could definitely use some updating, but it served its purpose and it was comfortable. The worst part was when people come and go, we were woke up every time someone was in the hallway. It is so loud, there is no sound barrier. After about 3am on Sunday it was over, we were up, there was no sleep. Overall for the price you pay, it is a great little place, just bring earplugs to help sleep through the noise of arrivals and departures.
