No exhaust fan in the bathroom, just an empty hole that i plugged with a bath towel to keep out bugs etc. The shower curtain didn't extend far enough down to keep the bathroom floor from flooding.

We didn’t have the breakfast, the room was dirty. The staff was very unfriendly and antisocial, especially at the front desk. The fire extinguishers are not up to code. The cases around them are broke and there’s wasps nest in them. The elevator has no permit or anything from the city where the fire department and it needs to be updated and worked on. I would not suggest this hotel to anyone.

Sooo, for the price…we were satisfied. Here’s the good, the bad, and the ugly!! THE GOOD PERFECT, safe location. Super easy to walk the Gatlinburg strip and just far enough away from all the noise. Breakfast was a bit of a mad house but very tasty. Eggs, sausage (I didn’t care for), waffles, toast, bagels, cereal, fruit, yogurt, milk coffee, tea, juices. Lobby was spacious and clean. Front desk open 24/7 Our room 1098, was extremely spacious and had a jacuzzi in the living room that worked. Shower had great pressure. No bed bugs. The king bed was very comfortable! THE BAD The shower curtain was way too short (both ways). The floors were DIRTY. Like a dirty mop had been rolled across the floor’s. I got Clorox clean up and and scrubbed the bathroom floor and the piece of floor between the bed and the bathroom. The nasty, dark areas never came clean but at least I felt better. You have to request for maid service on a daily basis or you won’t get it. We asked all 3 days and only got 1. THE UGLY Where the tub met the wall was dark and awful looking. The shower curtain was way too short. A line of rust was noticed under the faucet. The tub faucet dripped non stop. Where the shower head comes out of the wall is a hole. No cover present. The bathroom door looked like it had been propped on its side and had water damage at some point. It was scratched up-stained and was dirt like where you’d pull the door to shut it. I also cleaned that inside and out-didn’t do much good.

Clean your own floors.

Check in went smooth but when we got to room there was a filthy wash cloth in shower. Next morning I spilled some coffee, took towel to wipe it up and found floor was filthy also. Reported both to front desk. Cleaning came in again and floor was still dirty.

First room was dirty and had a used rag and used bars of soap in the tub along with hair and crumbs on and around the bed, and unit smelled of urine. The second room ( which we took because we were tired after driving 8 and a half hours) had no soap, conditioner, or body gel, and very little shampoo. Asked the front desk for some, she said that house keeping would be up the next morning to refill the containers.... That never happened..... Drywall mud covering a water damaged wall (seemed to be covering mold or mildew) water damaged ceiling tiles, warped ceiling tiles which opened up to the open area between floors, crumbs around the bed, door chain broken off and missing, water leaking outside the door from above unit. And the pool was green and full of algae. Room 129 was the second room can't remember the number of the first room
