Econo Lodge Pigeon Forge Riverside

Clean

No wifi, no exhaust fan in the bathroom, no plugins at nightstand, other receptacles wouldn't hold anything plugged in. Remodeling going on old mattresses and furniture sitting out in the parking lot.

Your front desk attendant was pleasant and suggested a restaurant for our dinner when we asked.

The Wifi was out so we could not review our hiking plans for the following day which were saved on my computer. Ugh! There were two bugs in our bathroom. You should spray for bugs. The bed had microfiber sheets which makes us toss and turn because it makes us hot and then cold. We had to change to our cotton sheets that we bring on vacation. Your mattress is most uncomfortable. It reminds me of the physical education mattresses when we did our gymnastics course in high school. Also the hotel is on the main street through town and our hotel room faced the main street. It was loud and the motorcycles woke us up several times throughout the night. The scrambled eggs at breakfast had a funky taste. Yuck! I suggest a new vendor. Lastly, we were finishing our packing and getting ready. There was a rap on the door and before we could get there your cleaning lady opened the door. Wow--what about privacy? Most hotels give the staff a list of rooms once guests have checked out. She apologized, but this should not have happened!!!!

The river behind the hotel was a lovely surprise!!! Enjoy sitting out there in the evening.

WiFi was awful in the rooms.

The rooms were clean and comfortable, making for a pleasant stay. The property is ideal for traveling families rather than couples seeking a relaxing getaway. We stayed for two nights, which was just right for us. There’s a river nearby and plenty of wildlife to enjoy.

Suited for families and not couples wanting to relax.

We liked the location !

We wish breakfast had a wider selection !
