I decided to stay an extra day and asked the person on duty about vacancy and she told me there were no rooms available, so I go up to my room and check online and was able to book a room online. Why did she lie to me about not having vacancy? And then they called my room early the next morning and got me up wanting to know if I had another reservation for that day and appeared to be upset that I had gone around them in booking another reservation without their knowledge!

The water was brown when we got there and took longer than 35 min. to heat up. It took over 35 minutes to run it through. The tub didn't drain well at all. These issues shouldn't be solved on arrival of guest. They should be customer ready.

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.
