Walk to the Parkway! [2 Bed/2 Bath & Pool]

Room was clean and provided a place for rest as needed for enjoying downtown Gatlinburg.

Good location

We very much appreciated the owner allowing us to check in earlier than normal due to one in our party being sick and with the Christmas parade happening the day we arrived. Knowing the traffic would be heavy, it helped to get settled, go for an early dinner and then find a good spot to enjoy the parade. The condo is an older one but decorated nicely was clean and tidy. The beds were not quite as comfortable as we would have hoped but, all in all we were completely pleased.

I booked this condo for 2 nights based on reviews and photos. Our experience was different: although the photos look like the condo is newer, in reality it is an older condo with new furnishings. It has drop ceilings in bathrooms (including a tile that had some sort of dried brown leakage in Master bath). The location of the condo is right off the strip which IS great. The pool is as others have said, nothing you want to use. That aside, we had a problem with bugs (dead and alive) inside the condo. Dead roach in master bedroom, some sort of black worm in master bath and another dead bug in 2nd bedroom. We left after the first night, very early the next morning (before normal checkout time) as we did not feel comfortable with the bug situation so much so that we didn’t shower or use anything in the kitchen. I mailed the Owner as soon as we checked out and explained our ordeal and asked for a refund for the 2nd night. She said she was surprised to hear of the bug problem because they have a pest control company. I didn’t know what to say to that as I had told her exactly what happened. She offered to have the condo looked at/cleaned up. Bottom line…she said that bugs were not a refundable reason! We checked into a Hilton Garden Inn with no bugs. I have used VRBO multiple times and this is the first bad review I’ve ever given. Again, each experience is unique but this was our experience.
