"The three goo things about the hotel are the location, the soft beds and the staff. It's older and can definitely use a lot of work but that was reflected in the price. It was the cheapest hotel we found available in town. Everything was walkable from the hotel. You step out your door and right into everything you could ever want to do in Gatlinburg. The beds were clean and comfy with warm bedding. The staff was helpful, kind and easy to talk to."
