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. It’s not too far from all the wonderful things that Gaitlnburg has to offer. Thanks again Ethan and Jennifer

The unit it’s self was very nice. Beds were comfortable. The disadvantage was that the basic necessities that was supposed to get us started was really basic like a partial roll of toilet paper in each bathroom and less than a half roll of paper towels in kitchen. The area to park was very small and it was very dingy and dirty looking going around the pool to go in to elevator. Water standing in area at elevator the whole time we were there.

Gatlinburg

I struggled with what to say for this review. The location is fine, check in process good and communication good. However, the apartment was the dirtiest vrbo we have ever stayed. It was not a one time not cleaned well issue. The construction is shoddy in the home. The white cushions in the photos are no longer white. We left our reservation early due to the conditions. The owner was understanding and refunded our remaining nights. Maybe it will be better for the next person? I hope so.

Absolutely horrible experience

I’ll start with the good. The location being at the end of the complex by the steps was very convenient. The condo itself was exactly what we needed for 6 adults traveling in for a weekend wedding. My money was refunded. The bad started at check-in. Check in was suppose to be at 4. When we arrived at 5:30 it had not been cleaned at all from previous visitors. All beds were unmade and there was trash and some personal items left. I immediately notified the owner and contact person. I was told they would contact the cleaners. No problem, I understand things happen. My family and I walked down to the strip and went to dinner. At 6:52 I messaged the contact person back and asked “Will you let us know after they are done?” The reply was “Ok will do”. At 7 my husband said, let’s go check. So we start our walk back. We arrive at 730 and no one had been there at all. At that time I try to call both numbers I had and was unable to reach someone. My husband started messaging the contact person. He was told via text message the cleaners lived 30 mins away and had car trouble. This was @730. So they weren’t there and wouldn’t be there for at minimum 30 more minutes. Then they would need to clean and changed/wash bed linens. I immediately called VRBO to find somewhere to stay. Which was an entirely different issue with even more frustration. When my husband informed them we would not be staying there. He was told they could remove the cleaning fee !! At the end of the story

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 “clean” during our stay.

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.

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! :)

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.

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.
