Property is in Quiet Townsend. I love the location. The property is good. It was clean and comfortable. Can tell its an older property with some recent updates it seems. I liked the laminate floors, cleaner than carpet. Ceilings and walls could use a fresh coat of paint but overall happy with stay. Would stay again. Did not take advantage of breakfast, checked out before time for it. Close to the mountains and out of the crowd of Pigeon Forge and Gatlingburg. Close to Cades Cove and the National Park.

Hated to see the pool filled in. Maybe they can fix that area up for social gatherings. Fire pit and a couple of hot tubs would be nice.

Super convenient location for the GSMNP. The hotel could use some upgrades. Lighting was poor in the room, shower provided only lukewarm water, and the internet and tv went out our final night about 7:30 and was still out the next morning.
