Olde Gatlinburg Rentals

Oof...where to start. The Mrs and I spend most of our time out exploring and don't spend much time in the room We had room 5B From the booking we expected a balcony but there was none. If that was the worst part I would be thrilled. Room looked bigger in the photos but more than enough for 2 people. Couch and Recliner were comfortable. Rocking chair not so much. There were bugs (dead) under the top sheet that I removed before my wife saw them. Toilet needed a new "flapper" and the water continues to run. Bathroom fan was incredibly loud and the shower stall was in need to prettying up. The Mattress in the bedroom should have been replaced 10 years ago. When we got in the bed we both fell into the middle of the mattress into the valley created by being so old. Heat and AC worked fine. Fireplace would not light. No biggie as it was warm buy wife wanted to use it once. Kitchenette sink drained slowly There was no turntable plate in the microwave, just a plate that didn't rotate. The location cannot be beat and we DID meet the owner of another room and they showed us their room. Was 10x better as they do spend time there and take pride in their property. If we were ever to stay here again we would rent their room.

We stayed in unit 109. Last minute Labor Day getaway. This one was a once and done for us. Upon arrival, we spotted an old bed frame thrown in a hole beside the entrance. Entry into the room was super easy. We first observed the wet, damp and musty smell as we entered the unit. We looked around and decided to make the most of it. We brought in our luggage and , prepared to settle in for the weekend. We immediately discovered that the vertical blinds were missing slats. Anyone standing beside the pool could easily look into our room. The kitchen sink was gross and the blender and frying pan were deplorable (see pics). There was a thick layer of dust on all surfaces. After inspecting the bathroom, we noticed there were hairs on the walls and ceiling. I will say that hot water was plentiful and the water pressure was top notch. The toilet needs to be upgraded. It is definitely not ADA compliant, definitely low to the floor. I'm not sure if that's the standard but it should be. The toilet was also very wasteful. It used a ton of water for no reason at all. We them proceeded to the bedroom to unpack. That was a definite no. The closet area contained the water heater, some extra pillows and a tray table. There was not any space to store anything in there. We noticed an antique wardrobe and thought maybe we could use that. There we a few hangers, a dorm size ironing board, some paint and very little space. There were some small drawers but the whole thing smelled. We didn't want to store anything inside. We ended up using the dresser on the other side of the room for dirty clothes and never fully unpacked our luggage. The bed, oh my gosh, the bed. It was horrid. The absolute most uncomfortable bed I have ever slept in. We contemplated on dragging the mattress into the living area. The only reason we didn't do that or sleep on the pull out couch is because there was no privacy because of the missing slats. And please consider another source of lighting in the bedroom. The two small dusty lamps did not provide adequate lighting. The smoke detector was lying on the dresser up on arrival. We never tested it but did inspect for a date because it appeared to be outdated. Overall, I do not recommend this particular unit. I can not speak for others but this one is a definite NO!

Not impressed keep shopping there are a lot better
