Very convenient to down town. I was disappointed in bedroom #3. By the description, I thought it had a futon and queen bed in it. This complicated our sleeping arrangements due to privacy issues. Didn't like using the living room as a bedroom.

Our stay was pleasant and the hosts were good with communication. There was no significant issue with our stay, the place itself is nice. My one piece of feedback would be cleanliness. The floors were visibly dirty with dirt and hair, some of the towels had stains on them, and some of the bed sheets had stains on them. I understand they have a cleaning service that takes care of their cleaning, but I would recommend double checking their work because I did not feel ā€œcleanā€ during our stay.

Review of stay

The faucets were all loose on every sink, the air conditioning unit was extremely loud as it turned on and off throughout the night. One of the kitchen chairs was broken (the back was not supported) and the main room (kitchen living room) was extremely dark (several light bulbs were burned out).The accommodations were OK, but not fantastic.

Great little condo!

We staying for a night while passing through Gatlinburg. Condo was very nice, the only issue we had was actually finding the unit, it is in the multistory building in the back of the property. Everything was clean and well stocked.

June 20 stay

The condo is nice but old and outdated. All of the beds squeak, there are no curtains on the windows and the light outside streamed in all night. Thereā€™s gaps in the floor boards. Some of the chairs are broken. There was trash left on the counter when we got there. It worked for our one night stay but would not stay want to stay for longer.

Wonderful Gatlinburg Condo

This place has a great location, about a 5-8 minute walk to downtown! This property was very nice, and recently updated. Very comfy beds as well. The only downfall was the lack of hot water, after 1 person showering it was pretty cold. Other than that, we had a wonderful stay and would stay here again! :)

I will definitely stay here again in the future

Me and my husband and our 5 children were visiting from FL. After booking Ethan and Jennifer reached out to me and gave me all of the info I would need to self check in once I arrived. I had no issues checking in at all. The room was clean and updated. Everything was fully stocked. They checked on us a few times during our stay and even sent me a link to check out their other rentals. I would definitely stay here again. Itā€™s not too far from all the wonderful things that Gaitlnburg has to offer. Thanks again Ethan and Jennifer

Clean, cute, and convenient

The condo was very clean and convenient to downtown. I loved that all the bedrooms had their own bathrooms. The only problem we came across was none of the tubs had a stopper for giving our toddler a bath. Otherwise it was perfect! We will be returning.

Convenient location quiet area

For the price point the condo was clean and located in a convenient area. And all appliances functioned properly. Amenities were a little sparse with no bathmats, towel rods, hairdryers. One of the shower rods was hung too high so water pooled on the floor. The beds were comfortable in the rooms were adequate size. The condo is at the end of the complex so it was in a very quiet location.
