One of thr cleanest hotels ive ever stayed in. Staff was great. You know when you stay in a hotel in the maids going around you can hear everything but it was so quiet I never could tell when they were cleaning. And the cleaning stuff was so sweet everybody there was so sweet definitely will stay here again. If you're a big smoker you might not want to stay here. No smoking at all in the premises thank God I always smoke 4 cigarettes a day.

We went for a cheap getaway. The hotel was pretty old, stained hall carpets, mound round the bathroom faucet, stains down the lower bathroom walls etc. The front desk staff need training they are so rude. We walked in at 1 to see if we might be able to check in early and were met with a lady saying gruffly “nothings available”. I find this hard to believe that not a single room is free but even so, her tone and literally that’s her welcome! Terrible. We came back after checking in time, new front desk lady, not very smartly dressed and also with an attitude. Just like she didn’t want to be there. Not a great start. The room was clean, balcony overlooks neighboring property which is a building site. Bathroom clean but run down. Pool, tiny and in the main corridor and also by a front door so it is not the warmest and if you’re swimming every passerby is staring at you. Pool links onto second floor with balcony so if you’re ok that floor it may be noisy. Breakfast was honestly so bad we went out the second day. It runs till 9 and they are very aggressive at closing it exactly on time. No yogurt, no peanut butter or cream cheese, no waffles or pancakes, no bacon or boiled eggs. It’s hard horrid little sausage patties and some scrambled egg (very bland), a bit of bread, some tiny muffins and that’s it. It’s poor. Even for a lower class establishment. We were barely in the hotel as we were out so much so it didn’t matter. Will I be back? No.

The room was good, they motel wants to charge for a balcony - the balcony is facing the parking lot. My family booked four rooms for this trip. The last night before leaving the children were playing in the pool. We was told to be quite because there were guest. The manager was notified and nothing was done. I had planned to use this motel yearly. But the incident changed my mind.

Charged me more after I arrived even though I paid and booked through Expedia. I wouldn’t stay again. Place is old and the balcony rooms you pay extra for overlook construction going on outside of the room. If u want a cheap old room for a short stay this place is fine but be prepared for them to charge u more. I’m sure they will add a replay of a garbage story but what they did is wrong and they also wouldn’t give me a receipt at the end of my stay even though they force you to give them your credit card for incidentals and I wanted to make sure there was a zero balance at the end because of their already shady practices at booking. There are so many places to stay in pigeon forge keep looking. Don’t stay here unless you are desperate
