Great for families

Rooms were huge but no kitchen for a suite. Second TV was not connected (as seen in picture) but the main one had full options. Great for a stay with four kids. Breakfast was the typical eggs and sausage with bread options, juice, coffee yogurts. Would prefer from gluten free bread, greek yogurt. But for the price none of these are complaints. For the price this place was clean affordable.

We stayed in a King Suite. It is two regular rooms converted into one big suite. Super nice, just like the pictures. Breakfast was good with eggs, sausage, pancakes, etc. Price was super good for what you get.

I called 4 days before check in and requested a joining room with a friend that was staying here also. The lady I spoke with assured me that that would happen. Not only did that not happen we were no even on the same floor as our friend. My husband is handicapped and this made our stay very difficult.

We were overall very satisfied with our stay. When we got to the room, we unpacked and started to settle in when I discovered a active lady bug infestation by the window. We also noticed a curtain bracket on the floor in debris by the window. I went down to the front desk and asked the gentleman on duty to come up so I could show him what I found. He then proceeded to check on the availability of another room and we were able to switch rooms. The rooms are very spacious and have been updated. The staff here is very courteous and accommodating. All the rooms have a balcony that is creekside, so it's a very pleasant atmosphere. It's within easy walking distance of the main attractions in Gatlinburg, very close to Ober Gatlinburg. Breakfast area was well maintained.

Good place to stay!

We were looking for something on the River and we found it in this hotel. Room was clean and looked like it had been recently updated. Balcony view was perfect. Very good pricing for the accommodation.
