We stayed for a week. The rooms are updated, clean and well maintained. Our balcony faced the river and route 331 which is always very noisy but the AC managed to drown out most of the noise. Breakfast was good and the pool area and hot tub were a great bonus. There is only one old elevator that services all four floors so there is always a wait. We would stay again.

Front desk guy was not friendly (Mario) was annoyed that I tried to check in at 3:30 and told me you know check- in is at 4!!! Then made me come back the parking lot was empty! I think he didn’t wanna be bothered. Then when I came back at 4 there was a long line to check in . One lady was nice and friendly and the other one who checked me in was rude!!! She also worked Monday evening and was rude again! This was on September 16th at 8:45 pm. My husband stayed at the hotel one day when I took my son to Dollywood and when I got back he even said that the staff here is miserable and not friendly at all!!! We do have to say that the cleaning lady was very nice and helpful with clean towels each day as we were there 5 nights. We probably would not stay here again due to the fact that the front office staff was so rude!

While the property isn't the fanciest, the rooms are clean and the location was perfect for us. The river view rooms do face the street so you will hear traffic during the day but it quiets down significantly at night. The Motel is right at the beginning of Gatlingburg shortly after the first traffic light. Even though its at the edge of town, it was a great spot for us to be able to walk the entirety of Gatlinburg center and not have to worry about finding a parking spot. If you walk straight down it takes about 30 minutes to get to Crockett's breakfast at the opposite end of Gatlinburg. Being just north of the center of town its a little less chaotic and yet still allows for easy access to all the shops.
