Stayed in Standard Room Valentines Weekend. Clean room, friendly staff and comfortable bed. They do charge an extra $5 per night for parking. Biggest complaint with the room was a very small bathroom. The toilet was (no joke) 2 inches from the tub which made it very awkward. Probably going to stay elsewhere next time

Overall, we had a very nice stay. The room was clean and comfortable, and the staff was pleasant and accommodating—Maegan and Leanne were especially great. The location was very convenient, just a short 10-minute walk to downtown Gatlinburg, with trolley pickup available right at the motel. A few minor updates could improve the experience. The pictures are more updated than the rooms. While the room was clean, the corners could have used a bit more vacuuming. Breakfast was the same each morning, but it was decent, always hot, and well stocked.

I truly enjoy myself on our vacation during New Year's week. We had a clean room and I especially liked having a fireplace in my room since it was so cold. The staff was amazing no problems very welcoming. I'll definitely be back to stay in the future. Also trolley is right in front of the hotel or it's only a 10 min. walk to main stop.
