It was a clean, comfortable room in a good walkable location. My only complaint was to check hot water before you shower because sometimes hot sometimes barely warm depending on how many guest were showering at the moment.

The floors were sticky , the bathroom had a brown ring around the sink and the balcony door lock was busted and unusable . They were unable to move us to another room or refund our money. They gave us $20 off the resort fees. The entire facility is dirty and old.

The room was clean, though the floor was warped and looked like it had significant water damage at some point. Staff was friendly, though there was no housekeeping because they had the week between Christmas and New Year's off. Breakfast was very minimal...could use more options. Location was great. Close to town, walkable, but not in the midst of the business of downtown Gatlinburg.

There was no shampoo, when we called the front they said it wouldn’t be available until the following day after our check out. There was limited or no hot water in the mornings. The hot tub was broke. Our first room smelled of smoke so we insisted on getting a different room. King rooms did not have a fireplace like shown in photo either and there was no housekeeping. Only pro is the location.

Menu was fresh; maybe needs a little more variety. Staff was excellent. Room was exceptionally clean. Very pet friendly and great to be right near the outside pet walk. The only down side was the extremely poor planning of the lights in the bedroom. All lights are across the side that the head of the beds are. This makes the side where you are making coffee or trying to use desk virtually useless.

So the staff was great, and the breakfast was pretty good as well. The room was clean for what it was The only thing that I would have a complaint about was on the balcony door there was a big gap on the bottom to allow cold air into the room and or bugs because there were several. And the smell wasn't that great. But generally it was okay.
