SureStay Plus Hotel by Best Western Gatlinburg

SureStay Plus Hotel by Best Western Gatlinburg

8/10 Good
"Stayed late September, 4 nights. Excellent choice if you are looking for an affordable hotel on the south side of Gatlinburg to get you into the Smoky Mountains quickly and with minimal traffic congestion while still being within walking distance (and there is always the free trolley with a stop nearby) of extremely crowded, touristy, downtown Gatlinburg or if you need quick driving access to the bypass to Pigeon Forge. We had a second floor balcony room w/ a pleasing view and sound of the small river next to it. Breakfast was the usual selection of cold and hot offerings, no complaints. Staff friendly, helpful, accommodating, and never slacking, general impression is that of being slightly understaffed as a lot of multi-tasking appeared to be going on. Hotel is in need of some repairs and maintenance, but nothing that creates more than minor inconvenience/ annoyance. A flickering light, a constantly running toilet, a big plug of hair we pulled out of shower drain, and one outside access door with a finicky keyswipe is what we noted; but no odors and never saw a bug other than one persistent fly that came in off the balcony. Pool was closed for the season, and it is tiny if that is an amenity you are looking for. Only negative for us is there are no guest self-service laundry facilities on-site. Overall would recommend and would stay again unless we found another conveniently located, affordable hotel in Gatlinburg WITH laundry facilities."
