Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Practically all the hotels in this area are 2 star facilities. Relax Inn was clean, no issues with the beds, slept well. The bathroom was clean and had ample towels. I didn't use the mini fridge or microwave and coffee pot. It was an easy check in & out. No major issues.

Comfortable bed and good shower. Some updates in room. Musty and stinky odor in room made it very difficult to sleep. Pricey and no breakfast. Would not stay here again.

Very convenient location for walking to restaurants and shops. Staff couldn’t have been nicer or more helpful. Our AC wasn’t working properly right when we first unloaded the car and we were immediately upgraded to another room. The manager had the unit fixed before we had finished moving but he said to stay in the other room for the inconvenience. The pool area was pretty! Bed was comfortable, area very quiet at night. We would stay again.

This motel is excellent! One of the best motels we’ve ever stayed in. We booked it for our visit to the Great Smokey Mountain Railroad, which was only about a 5 minute walk so super convenient! About 5 minutes to all the stuff in the downtown area as well! The staff here were very friendly and attentive, when we came back to the motel from our railroad trip they had straightened everything up and gave us more towels. The property and the room were also super clean. No complaints!

We would go back and stay again

Amazing this is one of the best places we have ever stayed. The owners were so nice. Anything we needed they was so helpful. We had our truck and a trailer that we needed to park so we could ride our trike on the mountain roads. They were so nice to let us have a place to park our truck and trailer. It was a very clean room. We would go back and stay there again.

This is a small little motel that has been redone inside and it is super cute with very nice beds. You can tell it is older but they do a great job with it and the couple who runs it are so nice! We had a great stay. We have been twice now. Plus it’s walking distance to most anything in the town.

Small room but comfortable.
