8/10 Very good

This place is in a great location. We stay here every time we visit the Smokey Mountains. The rooms are a good size. The issues we had were with the shower water pressure and the hot water. It is an older place so it’s not for everyone.

The Stay

It was great. We walked to the center of town. Everyone was so nice and helpful. I just have one suggestion if they ever do a remodel the little wall between the toilet and the sink needs to be moved over so there is more room when the toilet is being used.

This place is amazingly clean and is a great place to stay! My wife and I love how good the room smelt when we walked in. This property is 0.7 miles away from Anakeesta (bonus)! All in all would stay again. Staff is super friendly and accommodating!
Brandon and Cindy, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

We booked a 3 night stay on the fact that the reviews praised the hotel as such a great place to stay. I would not have booked for more than one night if I had known that it would be the noisiest room we’ve ever attempted to sleep in. The ac/heating unit rattled all the time. They claimed to be a smoke free hotel but our room reeked of smoke so on those reasons I asked if we could be moved to another room for the next nights and they were very considerate to move us. The next room smelled clean, looked newer and was comfortable but the ac/ heating system still was very noisy. Nice enough for what we paid. Side note: the beds aren’t for short people. I’m 5’3” and had to practically climb to get up into them.
Virginia, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Was a nice clean hotel and good location.
Chadwick, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

There wasn’t anything to dislike. It was comfortable, clean, quiet, and basically right on the main drag (less than 2 minute walk). The outdoor patio off my room and the fireplace were nice surprises. I really enjoyed my 5 night stay and look forward to staying here again. Highly recommend!
