    Would have liked vending machines, not just the ability to purchase from the front desk.

    The location was excellent for our purposes, right by the convention center, close walking to great eating establishments and a very nice hotel overall.

    nice hotel off main strip but easy walking distance

    Parking in front is hard to find but if you can get a spot in back, it's easy access into lower floor and elevators.

    The fall decorations in the lobby were very welcoming. Loved the breakfast area had it's own floor with lots of space and tables. Nice mix of hot and cold foods. Liked the juice options (orange, apple, mango) and that there was both white and chocolate milk. Appreciate that soap dispensers in the rooms instead of the waste that happens with individual bars. Beds were comfortable and towels were nice quality. I appreciated the lighting along the lower part of the wall near the bathroom so you can see if you have to get up after lights out and not disturb anyone or run into something.

    The only complaint I have, which isn’t a big deal, is that shortly after breakfast they pretty much close off the lower level which is where breakfast and the coffee station is, for cleaning. So if you miss breakfast or want a coffee after 9:30, you have to make it in your room or get a coffee elsewhere. That’s literally my only complaint.

    We absolutely loved our stay here. The hotel was walking distance to the strip downtown and a short drive to pigeon forge. The whole place was super clean. The pool and water slides exceeded my expectations. I thought they were going to be much smaller then they actually were. They were huge!! My 15 year old nephew enjoyed them as much as my 7 year old son. I also liked that there was plenty of seating around the pool area to relax and watch the kids play. We stayed in a king suite and the room was very spacious and the bed was comfortable. There was a late football game on one of the nights we were there and the room was large enough for 6 of us (3 adults, a teenager, and two young kids) to watch the game comfortably with plenty of seating and we even had pizza and wings delivered right to our door. The staff was super friendly and very helpful.

    The only thing I had bad was the pull out sofa that had a huge wire hanging out of it that I hat to stuff so my kids did t get poked with it and as I’m putting on the sheets right in the middle of the mattress as I’m lifting it up was a pile of candy melted to the mattress which was disgusting so yeah I don’t know nothing bout that but please get that maids to handle that it’s room 412

    Everything was great from the location and especially the indoor pool which my kids love and being right across from the favorite breakfast place to eat was a plus
