This hotel was really wonderful! It seemed new and I can't say a bad thing about it. We had 3 rooms which were all the same. There were 5 adults and one child in our group and no one had a complaint. They even have large flat screen tv's and iHomes in all of the rooms. The beds were so comfortable. I was surprised at how nice the hotel was when I saw the room rate! I would look to stay here when we head south for vacations.

Literally, the only thing detracting from this otherwise amazing hotel is that it is almost too popular. The place was packed when we stayed with families like us. Everything about the hotel is exactly as expected. But we like hotels that are a little less occupied, so we have the pool a little more to ourselves. The room was noise-proof and has new locking mechanisms (you hold the key in front of the door to open). The place met or exceeded our expectations. We just like fewer people. The place must serve UT crowds because the art in the hotel shows student athletes. It is located close to the interstate in a suburban shopping area.

GOOD value. The room was very affordable (less than $100 for a one-bedroom suite), super-clean with a helpful staff. WIFI is strong and parking is free. Breakfast is typical Country Inn and Suites fare and tasty.

Basically, this country inn is pretty typical of the chain, with nicer staff and great cleanliness, but a bit on the pricey side. Our hotel room was very clean; bathroom good size; TV excellent; beds very comfortable; staff very nice; breakfast typical for country inns though there wasn't enough seating room at 8am and we had to share a table with other guests. We sat with another couple who were very unhappy with their stay, so I have to think that some rooms are better than others. Price is way too high I thought, but I used my Carlson Club points to try it out; previously stayed at La Quinta across the highway for less than half the price -- breakfast there is terrible, and it isn't a spotless nor classy hotel, but for 1/2 the price, I'll probably stay there next time I visit.

This hotel is the best place we've ever stayed for UT Football weekends! Close to great restaurants, reasonably priced shuttle to games, but the best part about this place is the STAFF. They make you feel like part of the family. Alex is tops.
