Nothing!
It was old, tattered, dirty, and smelled.

The hotel was very seedy and smelly.

Right on the river. Great views.
Room smelled. Housekeeper smoked in rooms.

Out of the terrible Gatlinburg traffic, which was a positive and within walking distance of everything. Right on the river, which was wonderful. I elected not to have the housekeeper clean my room because I saw her smoking in another room. The room was comfortable, but smelled funny. ...read more

Staff was friendly, pool area was nice and
comfortable bed.
Horrible smell from fireplace, very small bathroom, poor lighting.

We arrived to this hotel with great expectations. But it had a horrible old fireplace smell that permeated the whole room. It never went away throughout the whole trip. I was glad to leave because of this. It also had a balcony overlooking the river, but it was very small. ...read more

All the rooms have a great view of the river from balcony.
The bed was too soft and the shower.

Quit little motel on the river with a great balcony view of the river. A great relaxing place for coffee in the morning and a glass of wine late at night. The motel is within walking distance to downtown and is a quick exit to neighboring town and other attractions. If you are looking for price this is the place. ...read more

Very clean and the staff was nice.
Nothing.

The room was clean. The staff was nice and there is continental breakfast in the morning. It's not right in town so there is not a lot of noise. I loved it. I will stay again my next visit.

Balcony, fireplace and locations to attractions.
A
stale smell, probably from the fireplace.

I would encourage anyone visiting the attractions in Gatlinburg to consider staying in this hotel with excellent hospitality and flexibility. We had to change our plans suddenly, and accommodations were make immediately to meet our needs. Very comfortable, affordable, clean and extra conveniences in the room. ...read more

I liked this hotel. It was very clean. The fireplace, private balconies and entrance was really nice. I would stay there again. It was not in the busy section of town which was also nice.
