My 15 year old son is nearly 6 foot tall so he wasn’t enthused about using it much. It was better than average but make sure to get there way before they close it at 10 am to get a better selection and so you don’t feel rushed as they close it precisely at 10 am! The pool looks pretty but is only outdoors and at the deepest part is 4 foot so it is mainly for young children. I paid extra on the nightly bill for breakfast so it wasn’t free but way less than $15 per person. The staff at breakfast were much nicer (especially the lady who kept the dishes and tables cleared who was wonderful!). The main desk staff was not friendly at all but did supply whatever I came down to ask for (towels, soap, toilet paper, and tissues). I would suggest just buying disinfecting wipes at the Walgreens across the street and doing it yourself! I still was getting fresh towels and more toilet paper that night as usual and wiping things down myself. Nothing was wiped down with disinfecting wipes or vacuumed, and no new towels were left except a washcloth with a very long embedded hair (and yes, we did tip). Basically they only made the bed (no new sheets) and took out the trash. You must request housekeeping 24 hours in advance if you want service which we broke down and did one day. We did have a balcony which overlooked the river a little but also the road in the back of the property as well as trees that blocked the view of the river somewhat. The rooms are quite small with no desk or small table of any type and just one chair so downtime meant having to use the beds as the main furniture. One of the things that I was looking for were comfortable beds and a quiet room and those expectations were met. We stayed here as a family (2 adults and 2 teens) for 6 nights during a recent trip to Pigeon Forge.
