Clean and clean smelling room. Shower good and hot with good pressure. Only bad thing was wifi was terrible. Slow as hell. Very nice staff in office and the cleaning guy was super.
It was great for a low price hotel in Gatlinburg. It was close enough to walk downtown which was nice. Everything in the room was great. We really enjoyed our stay!

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The TV was on when we entered; the sheets have bloods and dirty ; the phone line was not working ; the front desk has no coffee and no breakfast
always a good experience here. family owned and operated. no frills, clean, and comfortable super close to the national park entrance. I always enjoy staying here.
Well, for the money I paid I’m requiring a refund. It was nasty horrible part of the leak in the ceiling in the bathroom. They knew all this and it was very unhealthy for my grandchildren. I had no money to go anywhere else and that was a lot of money to pay and I expect compensation ASAP from Hotels.com I have been bragging on y’all because if we’ve had problems in your past, always made sure it was fixed and returned to me so I’m not very happy camper and I do not wanna give you. This was disgustingly, horrible, and unsafe animals that were frequently coming around.

We have been staying here for 37 years. Great location with everything in walking distance.
Great staff!
There was nothing I liked. Shower didn't work, unsafe area, room was not cleaned well, room had a terrible smell. Front desk guy looked like he had just worked outside all day. Granted the price was cheap, should have been cheaper. Would NOT RECOMMEND
I can’t complain really given what I paid for but just be prepared and don’t go in expecting holiday inn accommodations this is an old and dated property. Would I book again at the price point absolutely because I am cheap!

Liked: Staff & service, room comfort
Great folks who run the hotel and provide services. Room was nice but not the cleanest. Over all it’s a great little hotel snuggled in the heart of town. I will definitely stay in Mountain House again.
