Our heater didn't work in 25 degree weather. We told the man in the front office and he said "never heard that before" and gave us a small space heater he was using for this office (they dont have heating?) from the 80s and told us to use this to warm our entire room. My husband went back and told him we needed a new room as that heater was a joke. They DID give us a new room. The room still had stuff from the previous user. We found lolipop sticks, hair clips, their food left over in the fridge. I guess you get what you pay for as this was one of the cheapest hotels in Gatlinburg for that time. The rooms were decorated nicely and the bed was comfortable. Close enough to walk downtown. Okay if you're just needing it for one night.
When arrived found the bathroom to be dirty could not even take a shower. The sheets was dirty. Couldn’t even put my cloths in a dresser drawer because they was full of dirt and food. Food was left in the fridge. Was very disappointed!
Appears to be under renovation. No one was at the counter upon arrival. Two phone numbers posted on the door to call for assistance. No one answered the primary number and someone answered the second number as did not offer any assistance. A hotel worker finally saw that they were people waiting outside’s de the office and opened the door. No greeting or sorry for the wait. Basically was handed a key and go find your room. Rooms are antiquated. Bathrooms are from another lifetime. Towels were old and barely big enough for a child let alone an adult. NO HOT Water fr a morning shower three days in a row. No phone in the room and there was a lockbox on the outside of every room door. Not sure what it was for, but startled us one as a hotel worker was accessing the lockbox while we were in the room around 9:00pm. Very alarming. Had we not prepaid through Expedia, we would have departed after the first night. Renovation appears to be superficial. Need to upgrade the switches in the bathroom and ensure hot water.

The gentleman at the desk was kind. There was garage in the parking lot along with a dead bloated bird. The bathroom door latch was broken, locked in the bathroom for a short time. My husband was able to get me out. The bathroom pipe had a least 2” of dust.
The king size bed was really comfortable! Extremely surprised! Within walking distance to all activities.

Great place.
Tee enjoyed our stay. We had two rooms and we were lucky to have them side by side. We could tell they were making upgrades and they rooms were looking good and you could it was coming together.
The rooms were really nice, beds comfy. The outside looks a bit run down, which makes you double guess the quality but we were surprised about how nice the rooms were. Free parking and the staff were nice

We booked the hotel from a weds-Monday. When we pulled up to be honest we thought oh no ,, its run down looking. However, when we opened the door to the room , it was nicely decorated. Beds were comfortable, it was clean . The room over all was decent. The bathroom needs updating, and it would be better with no carpet , and updated flooring . The staff was very nice
Blood on the sheets, walked into hair all over the bathroom floor, used wash rags in the shower. Manager was nice.

Beware! Do not book here!
DO NOT STAY HERE! This place is awful and covered in fleas! My husband and I booked a room here a few days before our road trip. Once we checked in, 10 mins later we were sitting on the bed and noticed a few fleas. Upon removing the top sheet there were numerous fleas jumping everywhere! They got into our belongings and bit up my husband’s ankle. We told the front desk attendant and he said nothing he can do. Multiple other people were complaining and leaving due to fleas and AC units not working. EVEN WORSE, hotels.com is refusing to give us our money back because the owner of the property will not respond. This is a TERRIBLE experience with this motel and hotels.com.

Seen a roach bug as soon as we walked in but thats understandable. My husband woke up to a bed bug on him and seen another one on my daughters bed. We left immediately
The manager of the property was excellent, very friendly and doesn't stop. Very budget friendly. I'll definitely be back.

For the price, it was not a horrible stay. When we arrived, There wasn’t anyone in the office, however the owner/manager came out of their living space shortly after to greet us. The manager was very friendly.
All the rooms are non-smoking however, guests are allowed to smoke right outside there room. And how this lodge is set up, we walked through numerous clouds of smoke to get to our room and the smell follows into the rooms.. Due to there being large gaps in the doors. We would have appreciated a designated smoking area away from the rooms.
Entering our room, it was very clean and tidy. The room itself was older and you can see they are doing their best to update the rooms.
We didn’t have any towels in our room upon arrival, and staff was quick to get us towels. We stayed for 4 days, we did not get room service any of those days.
The hot water was probably the most frustrating thing about our experience. It went from Scolding hot to freezing cold.
Rooms were nice, beds have bed socks on them, TVs were huge, the place was nice and quiet. They had actual coffee mugs which was pretty cool too. Very homey
