Overall good stay. Friendly staff. Well lit. Shower could use a bit more water pressure, but definitely usable. Layout was a bit confusing at first since its two buildings. Would definitely stay there again though.

We love staying here because it is right on the Gatlinburg strip so we can walk everywhere. It is also a very low price for the location. It is not fancy but it has all the basic amenities and is always clean when we stay. If you are wanting a simple affordable room this place is the way to go!

The property is a great location , we can walk to everything. The room was decently clean . The AC was broken and would shut off after 5 minutes, there was no fan in the bathroom and the room stayed humid and stuffy . We were there for 4 nights and never received any kind room service , not once did anyone come in and make the bed or leave clean towels .

This is a great place to stay... ...if you want a dirty bed and bed bugs. The rooms are poorly lit and there's a reason. Do yourself a favor and look around with your cell flashlight. The first room I was in, one of the beds had been PEED IN and not cleaned. The whole room smelled. The sheets appeared clean, but not the blankets. I assume they changed the sheets and put the dirty blankets back on the bed. My second room had several dead bugs, and after pulling back 2 mattress pads (when there's usually only 1), there were dead bugs under the pads. I was told I would likely not receive a refund because I booked through Expedia, but that a manager would call me. I never heard back.

Parking was on street rather than a private lot. The arrangement of the room amenities made getting ready difficult. No place for luggage. No place to unpack. Sink drain pipe ran uphill prior to the trap. Breakfast offerings were poor. The coffee was good.

The balcony was a real disappointment
The room was okay. Cleanliness was okay. The patio / balcony was not at all what was presented in the ad pictures. Apartment door opened up to a slab of concrete in a run down back part of property with a broken fence open to the lot next door.
