Pros (+) Going up to gatlinburg for a girls weekend in October was a bit crazy as the whole place was packed. But this hotel more than made up for the craziness. When you first hear motor lodge inn you think "um can this be any more dated?" But the rooms were thoughtfully updated and the rooms balcony hangs over the river so you get into how nice the place is really quickly.
Cons (-) The toilet was really low and we made the trip way too short
Pros (+) Not one of the newest but it was definitely clean and the staff was very friendly. I would stay again. Great location over the river.
Pros (+) Balconies overlooking stream
Cons (-) Parking
Pros (+) Location on river. Private balcony
Cons (-) Pool falling apart. closed hot tub. Place needs a makeover
Pros (+) The view is great and its in good walking distances for down town Gatlinburg.
Cons (-) The place wasn't like its pictures, Room was really outdated, No privacy on the patio. Bathtub seemed to need replaced. I called like 3 months ahead of time to make sure I got a room and I ask for two beds and they gave me a room with one bed. I won't stay there again.
Pros (+) price
Cons (-) pictures are misleading , slump in bed, tube tv, dated rooms
Pros (+) Seeing the river from the balcony
Cons (-) Ajoining rooms and no privacy on balcony because the people on the other side could open the door and see what was going on. I felt unsafe cause there was 3 access doors where someone could break into the room. Pictures on the Internet are nothing like it in person. Needs serious updating, besides the sink area. I felt nasty the whole 8 hours I was there. Parking area is horrible for big size cars...
