We stayed here one night while travelling through Knoxville. The hotel is very tired and old and not very soundproof so is noisy due to the highway next to it. (Glad o had earplugs) We thought our room seemed relatively clean until we pulled the sheets back and saw that the comforter was visibly dirty. They quickly came and replaced it with a brand new one but it made us wonder what other corners are being cut. Beds were comfortable but we wouldn’t stay again.

Very run down location. There were roaches in my room and the bed was so worn out you could see the metal edging through the sheets. Needless to say the bed was very uncomfortable. I won’t stay here again.

Obviously the pictures they showcase are not anywhere near the room you get. The room smelled like smoke, was not clean, damage to furniture and the room itself (walls, doors) to name a few issues. I felt dirty just being in the room as did my children. Extremely disappointed and misled. Stay away.

My room had a strong smell of cigarette smoke the whole time I was there, and the toilet flush kept coming apart. The staff was fine & the bed was comfortable, but it was very inconvenient for anyone wanting to get into Knoxville every day (Lyft & Uber required 15-20 minute waits), and the only place to eat in walking distance was a Waffle House that was 3/4's of a mile away. I don't think I'll stay there again.

The floors of the rooms do not appear to get swept regularly (including under the bed where I saw trash). Lots of cobwebs near ceilings and floors. Rooms are not very soundproof as I could hear every noise in the hallway and room next door.
