Okay for the price

Hotel was fine, room could have used updating, carpet was ripped, dirty socks were left in the closet. Getting in the hotel was a pain if coming back from Gatlinburg. Beds weren't super comfortable. Pool area burned your eyes with the smell of chlorine.

The address on display in Expedidia is confusing; I found the hotel because I knew the area. The only bad thing I have to say is about the electrical receptacles, they seem as if they are all melted in some areas and that makes what you try to plug in loose and a little dangerous.

First room had ants, they offered to spray or move us, we moved to another room from River view to off the pool. No ants visible, but pool was noisy, kids having fun, it is what it is. Rest of stay was good, friendly staff. Still ended up with something biting my legs, not sure if from 1st room or 2nd. Beds were comfy, pillows, okay, not firm enough for me. Did not partake in breakfast. Coffee in room is meh....parking lot definately fills up if you're out too late. Good location close to lots of stuff.

I would have gave this all great reviews till the last day. We found the room had bed bugs. I have to wait till a 3rd party comes to check the room to confirm they have bed bugs before they will do anything. Even though we showed them a bed bug in a bottle. We will not be staying here again.
