Gatlinburg Town Square

8/10 Good

"Spacious rooms with comfortable beds and clean linen; balcony was nice with Mountain Views; kitchen was nice to have though utensils (pans) could be better; furniture was in mixed condition ( some were pretty well used ); toiletries provided weren’t great, so make sure to carry your own; Property is conveniently located and at walking distance from the Main Street and has a trolley stop #39, right outside the property. Overall a good comfortable stay!"

Quality Inn Creekside - Downtown Gatlinburg

8/10 Good

"Our room was clean and beds were comfy. The bathroom was clean and functional also. The Staff was friendly and helpful. They were short staffed so things took a little longer. The room we had has been updated. Keep in mind the property is old so there are things that need updating, like baseboards, doors, balcony furniture, etc. Clean room and being able to park my car for the week and walk everywhere on the strip was the Best!!! We will stay there again in the spring."
