Comfort Inn & Suites Knoxville West
It was dirty, there was a domestic dispute next door middle of the night, traffic was loud outside, and then barely any water pressure and zero hot water the second day of our stay. It was like camping

Hampton Inn & Suites Knoxville Papermill Drive
Room was spotless. Only had keycards to one room when the reservation was for two. Issue corrected promptly but the keys to the first weren't activated so I had to take a trip back to the lobby to get that corrected. Bed was comfortable and the room was a good size.

Extended Stay America Suites Knoxville West Hills
Whole place smells. Door security latch locks after you leave the room and front desk person has tool that she used to unlock so apparently that happens a lot instead of just repairing!!! The heater was not plugged in and there were kinky lil hairs on a washcloth.
