The first day we were there we notices dog poop in the corner. We never said anything about it, i dont like to complain. (After the maid refreshed our room that day it was gone) So, on the third day we were walking by the office and the girl working the desk comes running out into the street and asks... More

We were a little disappointed in the general condition of the room. It seemed clean, but dated. The tv had horrible reception or signal and was very annoying.

I know that there are some pretty pitiful reviews on here about the Gatlinburg Howard Johnson. However, when considering the price, I was more than happy with our accommodations. We stayed here over New Years and we couldn't have asked for a better hotel that suited our needs. We don't spend a lot of time in the hotel usually --... More

The cleaning service came and took out trash but no clean towels were left. All the employees that we came across were nice.

My family stayed here oct 14 and 15, 2011. A fireplace room at the top of the hill that there web site didn't mention. There were bugs in our room probably because of the two inch gap under our door. The room was just worn out. You would not want to walk barefooted in this room. It was a dump... More

My husband and I stayed here Oct 14~16, 2011. The location is wonderful, within walking distance to all the shops and restaurants. The hotel is nothing fancy, but clean and reasonably priced. However.... ....The WiFi did not pick up in our room -ever. And the free wifi service is one of the reasons we picked this hotel. Also, our room... More
