The hotel was in perfect walking distance to downtown. It was very quiet there and the A/C was nice and cold and the room was very clean.

Too close to Gatlinburg tourist strip, but still quiet. Worth the low price. Close to many restaurants on main strip.

6/10 Good

The address on our reservation was not the actual address which was locked and dark, apparently next door was the actual location. It eould have been nice to know that in advance. After we figured out the office next door was where we checked it...it too was locked and empty with a sign that they would be back shortly. Our key was in an envelope and taped to the window with my last name on it. So anyone would have come through and grabbed that key. The room itself was simple and clean. Close to the strip if you want to walk down. I just wish there had been communication about check-in.

For the price that we paid, the hotel was exactly what we expected. It is an older hotel, but it is conveniently located. We were attending an event at the convention center. It was about a 15 minute walk. We had great weather. Therefore, we enjoyed the walk. If your expectations are in line with the price that you pay to stay at this hotel, you won't be disappointed.

8/10 Very good

Not fancy, inexpensive, safe. Close walk

This was a brief get away for 1 night in Gatlinburg. I loved how close it was to the main strip, free parking, and a in room coffee maker. It served it's purpose of having a place to lay our head for 1 night. It's not fancy, and definitely dated, but for $100 it is good! Check in was the fastest I've ever had! Would definitely stay there again

Nice hotel.
