Nice, quick and easy
nice and clean. Simple, Easy. Right off the Main Street and perfect for us as it was a short block from the Conference Center in Gatlinburg. Parking was awesome for our room, breakfast was extremely basic - but hey, we were not expecting extravagant by any means. Just a last minute booking. Perfect for those working on a budget and needing a clean place.
