I stay at this hotel in Knoxville many times a year for business . It is always very clean and comfortable. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Internet is good and free. This hotel is a great value and anyone will like staying here. It has recently gone thru a total renovation and looks great. It is very close to many resturants and shopping. There is an outdoor shopping mall called Turkey Creek that is less than 5 minutes away. It is located right off the interstate exit. I highly recommend this hotel whatever the occasion.

Central H/A, no window units! Very clean and fresh linens. HIgh speed worked great. Best rate and size in town! Parents and 3 daughters (24, 20, 12 yrs old). Plenty of room!

Our rowing team went to the Jr Nationals in Oak Ridge TN.
ALL the hotels in the area were booked --so Debbie Pyne was a GREAT help in dealing with our team reservations--as we had quite a few changes to deal with. Debbie was VERY helpful-quick with email responses-like giving me directions over the phone to the race site-then immedately emailed me a map quest from the hotel to the Race site. SInce I was just making team arrangements and did not attend the race, Debbie called me the day after check in just to make sure eveything was going smoothly! Of course the team enjoyed their stay at the hotel!
Thanks again for all the help and sourthern hospitality!

During the past 6 months, we have made 4 trips to Knoxville, and we have stayed 4 or 5 nights at a different motel each time as none have impressed us enough to get our repeat business. This one might see us again.

We had a one-bedroom suite. There is a door to close off the bedroom--a feature that is lacking in most of the hotels that have suites. Because we were there for 5 nights, I wanted to be able to eat some meals in the room. There was a small refrigerator with no freezer unit and a microwave in the room. I had asked about kitchenettes when I made the reservation, so I knew there wasn't one. We brought our own dishes and silverware. It wasn't ideal, but we managed OK.

The room was clean except for a cheerio on the floor when we checked in. The suite was small, but attractive. I thought the king sized bed was very comfortable. We were on the back side of the hotel, but I could still hear some traffic noise from interstate 40. Turning on the heating/AC fan took care of blocking out the noise.

My husband enjoyed the breakfast each morning and appreciated the variety. It is more than a continental breakfast. The desk staff was friendly. The only negatives were that the clock radio stopped working the second night, and the haridryer stopped working the 3rd night. I borrowed a portable hair dryer from the desk. A woman's basketball team was there our last night unfortunately, and some of them were in the room next to us. They bounced a ball against our wall until midnight. The next morning someone began vaccuuming on the floor above our bedroom at 6:30 with the loudest industrial vaccuum I've ever heard. No sleeping after that. We didn't call the desk to complain, so I don't know what they would have done about it. I had requested a top floor room when I made the reservation, but they put us on the 2nd floor. When we checked in, I was told there was nothing available on the top floor.

One last thing--we were above the indoor pool (which is very small), and I could smell chlorine sometimes. There is a very small closet sized workout room with 2 treadmills and a bike next to the pool.
