The staff were all so friendly. The breakfast was better than any hotel breakfast I've ever had. The rooms were vintage but very clean. My one single complaint is that there is no mini fridge in the rooms, but the location, service, and rooms more than make up for it. I'll definitely try getting a room here again next time I come to Gatlinburg.

I have contacted Expedia about the property and waiting for a resolution. Firstly, the balcony view outside my room consists of walls, air conditioning units and a disgusting construction sight. I have emailed many pictures to Expedia for their review and support. Gutsy that this Inn thinks that it can charge their guests over $200 a night for this kind of room which has a horrible balcony view and everything is old and needs major updating. The front desk keeps telling me that they have no other rooms. I’m here with my granddaughter and I’m an older woman who this Inn is taken advantage because I didn’t want to make a big deal in front of my 7 year old granddaughter. I’m requesting a full refund.

Hotel was nice but Gatlinburg just wasn’t our thing. Breakfast was fantastic! Shower was nicely remodeled and is great if you don’t like getting wet. It definitely needs more water pressure. And why was there a bottle opener on the wall in there? Balcony was a plus. Location is awesome for getting to GSMNP.

Its an old building so there are some areas of the room that are warped. My husband prefers hand wash and body wash instead of bar soap. The staff was friendly except for lady at the front desk in the evening. Overall it was a good place to stay, the location is great.
Skypark is literally next door.
