Clean room but no pool or coffee maker in room. If all you need is a place to sleep with cold ac, this was affordable and clean.

Convenient location to the National Park
The staff was efficient and friendly. The room was clean and the area quiet. The hotel is located within a few miles of the National Park's entrance and within a reasonable driving distance of Cades Cove.

Well if water would not have sprayed out of the toilet after every flush it would have been better. Also finding the driveway after dark kinda sucked.

Will come back.
Really happy with this hotel. It was clean, comfortable, and quiet. I withheld one star over all because there was not a lot of hot water. This was late evening tho. It seemed better in the mornings. The Staff and breakfast were really great.

Place was ok, silly staff issues though, couldn’t get change for vending machines and normally you can get an extra hour at checkout not here.
