Great Smokies Inn Cherokee

Great Smokies Inn Cherokee

10/10 Excellent
"Near entrance to Great Smokey Mountain park and the Blue Ridgr Pkwy. I stayed in a non-smoking pet restricted area. For a person who does not like animals, especially in a room where I am sleeping.This is highly important to me... the area was quiet and within walking distance to multiple restaurants and shops... Clean room no lint in the corners, clean bathroom...older building... Reasonable price...friendly and informative staff."
