Access in and out from room to lobby wasnt ideal. Parking area is a little too dark at night. I didnt feel unsafe, but it definitely could be, due to the lack of public sight. Definitely needs lighting. Everything was clean'ish, but I did notice lots of dusty things (window sills, bathroom shelves, very dirty hallway windows). The property itself is very nice along the river, bed was comfortable. But it does drive me nuts to have 3 small pillows on king size beds, although it seems to be a common theme amongst many places.

Don't waste your money if a friendly staff, low noise (even on the 4th floor), and river view (as advertised in the listing online) is what you are expecting, because you will not find them here! Do yourself a favor and go to Sleepy Bear Inn in Gatlinburg and you will have all of that and more!
The great "river view"
