Laurel Inn Condominium

The PRICE!! This was a steal compared to a lot of places I checked. We just wanted a 3-night getaway without paying an arm and a leg for a place to sleep and shower and this fit the bill. The place is no Ritz-Carlton, but it’s better than you’d think for the price. It was clean, had a comfortable (albeit firm) bed and nice bathroom and plenty of towels and wash rags were supplied. The living area was also nice, and the kitchen amenities were plentiful, while we didn’t really take advantage of them. The thing I liked maybe most about the whole place is it was so quiet! For the first couple of days, it seemed like we were the only ones there. We finally saw someone at the pool on the last day, but inside the room was quiet as a church mouse. The room’s A/C worked very well. We walked down to town on our last night and while it was a little way off (I’d guess maybe 3/4 mile in total?), it wasn’t bad at all. Oh, and the Log Cabin pancake house is on the next block over! I would book this place again in a heartbeat.

Pillows on the bed were really bad. That’s my only minor complaint. The in-room jacuzzi just took up space. We did run it one night, but it took several hours to fill and was so loud that I was afraid it might disturb neighbors. But that’s no big deal. Other than that, it was a good catch-all for dirty towels and such!

First room i was in i got ate up by bed bugs. And they moved me to another room on the 5th floor which was ok. Not much space in this room because of a huge tub in the bedroom. Which i didn’t care for. So no dresser top or table to put some of my stuff like jewelry my glasses etc.. i Used the living room to unpack. They didn’t offer any kind of refund or partial or anything to accommodate my first miserable itchy night. I got bit on my leg and hand and shoulder. Still itches to this day. I won’t say i won’t rent here again but i can only hope that something like this would be first priority and will be taken care of immediately!!

We loved the location and it was a great experience

It was tough at first because of my not following through. I did not have the information I needed. But it was all taken care of.

The space and how homey and comfortable with the balcony too.

I didn't like the pilot light on the fireplace always being on. We did leave the window and the door cracked overnight due to the scent of gas, just as a precaution. The setting/ on-off of the fireplace wasn't easy for us to navigate. Otherwise we LOVED our stay!

The location is perfect for visiting Gatlinburg (right downtown, super walkable). The check-in process was smooth, the rooms were very clean. Large parking lot which is definitely a plus in this area.

We booked for three people, but I wouldn’t say it was the best idea: the rooms were well-kept, but everything seemed pretty old, so the sleeper couch wasn’t firm enough to comfortably sustain a grown-up. Plus, the layout is such that the bathroom is only accessible through the bedroom, so one of you always has to feel like an inconvenience. Next time, I’d just book two rooms instead of one.

Great value cleanliness and location
