1. They sold are room. Did not honor reservation. They did let me wait for an hour while they cleaned a room and demanded cash payment. 2. Everything in this hotel is shop worn and worn out. It is am embarrassment to stay at.
Christine, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Reserved room online, pre-paid for entire stay. Called ahead of time bc we were gonna be past the check in time and let them know when we was going to be there. They said it was no problem and said they left a note. Got there to check in, they had no available rooms even though we prepaid. Had to give us a king size one bed room when we reserved 2 queen beds. Staff was very rude about it as well and not at all apologetic. Will not be staying here again.

Booked for graduation weekend. Exactly what we needed. Nicki at the front desk was great and very helpful. Would definitely stay here again.

8/10 Very good

Was ok for pet friendly. Remodeled older motel. Lots of cut corners. This area of Knoxville is very dated and run down.
Michele, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

This property has the basics of a place of where to lay your head for the night. You get what you pay for the price. There is no warm breakfast.
Charissa, 1-night trip

It was very clean and quiet.
Sheila, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

We were shocked to have to place a 100 deposit, it is not on the website. Breakfast only had toast and cereal with a waffle. No fresh fruit, yogurt or variety of items.
Carla, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Knoxville Trip

Should have been more towels and soap for 3 adults over 2 nights. We had to go to the desk to request extra. Additionally, our room keys had to be reprogramed after the first night even though the reservation was for 2 nights.
CURTIS, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

They don’t have a water machine in the hotel, which is unacceptable. Only small bottles of water are available for purchase. This is the first hotel I’ve stayed at that doesn’t offer basic drinking water. In addition, I showed a picture of a cockroach to the front desk receptionist. I usually stay at Red Roof hotels, but after this experience, I will never return to this location.

The check in clerk was great. The room seemed clean; however, could use an update. The black tape on the bathtub is unacceptable.
