We was pleased with everything except when the fire alarm went off and my husband went to the front desk to find out what was going on because I had a quadriplegic child in my room and needed to know if it was an accidentally set fire alarm or if we needed to grab him out of the bed and run and that’s what we ended up doing leaving his medical equipment in the room no one telling us what was going on I understand staff needs to figure out what’s going on but there should have been someone at the desk to let guest know what was happening

Dangerous

Not handicap assessable unless on 1st floor elevator has been out for unknown time with old torn signs in them.. most doors do not have the inside lock, blood was found in the wall, microwave had been burnt inside, the mini fridge was NASTY, the hair dryer cord has been cut, pools had way to much chemicals, the light by the pool was broken, if a person walked by it while water got splashed on it… well u tell me what could have happen? Banister was covered in bird crap.. u can tell it had it not been cleaned! Who wants their children to touch that? Their breakfast consisted of unopened pop tarts and coffee, juice machine didn’t work, no milk, lights was never turned on, fireplace was never turned on, front desk man was hunkered down in a chair with a hoodie over his face. Very rude staff except the lady on night shift. No wash cloths in room had to wait till next morning at 9:30 am to get them from housekeeping. Electric sockets broken in the rooms. Rented 2 rooms. One rooms fire detector was not working and laying in cabinet? Really. Comfort 1 star rating bc the air does work and the bed was comfortable. Until I cleaned the linens off for the cleaning ladies and seen the blood on them. Curtains has mold on them. I have more pictures but this site will now allow of them to be posted. DO NOT STAY HERE!
Blood on the mattress pillow top cover. Noticed this after I took the linen off to help housekeeping as we was leaving.
I am assuming urine
Burnt microwave in our room.

Pool was empty when we arrived, evidently had been closed and had to be pressure washed, room was dirty, had to wear shoes in the room to keep our feet from getting dirty, staff was unpleasant, only 2 towels in our room (no wash clothes or hand towels for the four of us), all areas outside the room were dirty and unkept. Pool area was overgrown, indoor pool was filthy. Would have given 0 stars if it were available.

We arrived and got checked in. We were told the only rooms available were on the 3rd floor. We then found out the elevator was out of order. We had to carry suitcases and a baby up three flights of stairs in the middle of July. Once we opened our room, it was dirty. Food on the counters, wet towels in the floor. We then had to carry everything back downstairs just to find out there were rooms available on the first floor. I didn’t appreciate being lied to and then someone questioning whether the room was cleaned or not. Definitely will not stay at this location again.

Awful hotel

The stay was awful. Soon as I walked in, they ran out the door and stayed out there. Then coming to found out the room I reserved wasn’t available. I went to my room to open the door and the smell was bad and the room was disgusting so I asked for another room and they were so rude about it. Then I got the other room and it smelt like mold. There was filth everywhere, I couldn’t even sleep on the bed. I would go into the room and change and leave that was about it. Then when I left I got charged the damage charge. I have been calling them constantly no one answers. I have all the proof I need to get my money back. The room was already damage from the pictures I have shown. I will be calling someone over this, to put a stop to this or I will be taking them to court. That’s no way to run a business. Especially no room service to clean the room when you ask them for one. Then the pool was a green color. And I couldn’t use the toilet since the handle was broken and it kept flushing itself constantly.

Just nasty all the way around. Staff was extremely rude. The only one who was nice was the Latino man who was doing laundry. One front desk lady. Never came to clean the room, change the sheets, provide clean towels, didn’t have Continental breakfast. Elevator didn’t work. The worst hotel I’ve ever stayed at. I highly wxtremely do not recommend this place of business. Howard Johnson on parkway in pigeon forge near the wax museum. If I could give it a negative star I would have given the worse rate possible.

Room smelled like some one smoked weed right before we walked in. Stunk all night long. Asked for a new room due to having kids, they said they were out. Sheets had stains, burn marks, etc. No towels, key cards quit working, elevator out of service. 0/10

The stay was fine , what i expected really, except for the dirty linens . You get what you pay for . I dont care there was holes in the wall or there was random carpet in places from poorly finished updates i guess. The staff wasnt very welcoming... but would be considered running close to being rude if not out right so given that its the south its the mountains and its a hospitality business ... but like i said you get what you pay for and i knew that going in . The stay was fine and i would even consider stay again at the price i paid but would be prepared with my own linens packed ahead of time . Just an honest review .

Walked in lobby, 1 guy sprawled out on a couch asleep. The desk clerk spent most of his time on his phone. Requested bottom floor, was given 3 floor, elevator inoperable so ask for money back and cancelled. Had to pay for one day, never again stay at Howard Johnson's motel.
