10/10 Excellent
"Beautiful, quiet location in Gatlinburg. Friendly staff at check-in. Some wear and tear in the bathroom, but the patio chairs overlooking the stream running behind the hotel made more than up for that. Very memorable stay. Great Jamaican restaurant across the street with fresh bbq jerk chicken. Easy $5 parking right outside the front door. Parking at a hotel/motel in Gatlinburg is hard to come by. Local bus runs right outside the front door to the main strip downtown or you can take a short walk down."
