The listing indicated that the property has an elevator. It does NOT. Not an ideal situation for a senior couple to carry luggage up 2 flights of stairs!The condo was clean and the host was responsive.

Thank you for staying with Beyond Expectations! We’re glad to hear you found the condo clean and appreciated our responsiveness. We sincerely apologize for any confusion about the elevator and have updated the listing to ensure it’s accurate for future guests. We’d love the opportunity to host you again for a more seamless stay.
Was comfortable for our family of 4 and close to town. Saw 3 bears while we were there so that was pretty cool!!!!! Only dowside is you can hear the neighbors and the beds arent the most comfortable but for a short trip close to everytime it was great :)

Thank you for your review, Melissa. It depends how loud the other guests are if you hear them. We cannot please everyone of the mattresses. Some like them firm while other wants them soft. This condo is less than a mile from the strip of Gatlinburg. It is within walking distance or take a trolley.
Newly remodeled condo, it was neat and clean. The beds were comfortable. It sits on the mountain across from the Skybridge. We enjoyed the pool. We had a great stay and enjoyed our time in Gatlinburg
We would definitely go back. The condo was perfect for our family, and the local bears made our experience memorable. We were a bit disappointed that we were not within walking distance of downtown, but the good far outweighed the bad.

It is less than a mile to the strip of Gatlinburg. Some people do not have any problems walking to it.
Older place that is nicely remodeled.
Better pillows would enhance guest experience.
Add a Keurig coffee machine.

Gatlinburg and Great Smoky Mountain National Park
The condo was clean, well appointed, and conveniently located to downtown Gatlinburg and the Park. The free trolley stops just down the road. The two king beds were very comfortable. Also, a really nice view from the patio. Great set up for two couples or a family. Would definitely stay there again.. Very quiet.
Overall, the property met our expectations for our stay. The beds were comfortable, which is always one of our priorities. The location worked great for being a bit outside of town, but very convenient to walk down the hill. Make sure to take advantage of the free trolley as well, which picks up right on the corner of Turkey Nest Rd.
Be aware that there is no elevator, so you will be hauling your luggage up to the 3rd floor unit. We were disappointed that the property did not provide some common amenities we were used to like salt/pepper, coffee filters, and trash bags.

We state in our description and in our check-in information we do not supply those items.
Close enough to Gatlinburg and far enough for some peace
Beautifully redone condo! I loved all of the decorations. The beds were comfortable and the place was clean. It is up three flights, without an elevator for the building, but the view from the deck is worth it. We had some hiccups with the wifi and the key lock system, but the management team was responsive and addressed our issues. It’s a good walk up a hill to come back from town, but walkable. I stayed with a friend, and it was a great price for a place to have our own bedrooms and bathrooms.

Girl’s Gettaway
Very clean, updated. Very comfortable beds, good shower water pressure- basic needs met. Needs more plugs and one more seat or so in living space. Needs a place to set luggage. Outside of condo does not look like pictures. Is not a short walk, especially with the bear siting. Third floor with no elevator- and below neighbors who did not like to hear any walking around. Sounded like floor was being hit with a broom

Thank you for your review Amy. Sorry the neighbors below was being rude. Most of guest did not have this problem and are aware that they is not elevator.
The condo is in a great location and very updated and clean. There were only my husband and I and we ran out of hot water during our shower, it was 19 degrees in gatlinburg so we turned the thermostat up to 70 only to notice it mysteriously went down to 58. We were never able to get the place warm because the thermostat apparently was being adjusted remotely. Checkin was easy only our key pad didn’t work so we had to call(while standing outside in the freezing cold and being concerned for bear to be out) but we got a code for an actual key and were able to get in. I don’t ever post reviews but felt like these were pretty important things I’d like to have known(especially the thermostats, we were very cold the entire time were were in the condo) I hope this helps :)

Thank you for your feedback, Brenda. Sometime the batteries will go dead and we have to give the guest the code to the lockbox to get a key. We were not notified about the heat. It is not regulated. If the guest had notified us, we would have sent maintenance to check it. We provide phone numbers for emergencies. These are small condos and the hot water tanks are not very big, you have to let the tank fill and heat the water in between showers.
This is a beautiful condo and a great location. Very close to the strip and easy to to get in and out from. It has a nice patio which was nice for drinking coffee in the morning. It was very clean and exactly as the described. A couple of things to know when staying here. It is on the third floor and there isn't an elevator so be prepared for a climb. We had to make a couple of loads up those stairs. I would bring paper plates to use because there is only six plates and bowls. You will be washing dishes daily if you stay in cook meals. Also there isn't a big pot, so you don't have anything to boil noodles or cook a big pot of stew, chili or soup. The two bedrooms were very spacious and the beds were very comfortable but the sleeper couch in the living room was not because of the bar in your back all night. There needs to be another sofa or loveseat if you are having six people stay there because there is only seating for four. All in all, we had a great time and the condo is as listed.
Thank you for the 10/10 rating and for staying with Beyond Expectations! We're so glad you had a great experience and hope to welcome you back to Gatlinburg soon.
