The room was decently clean, the bath tub has a ring around it. The room smelled awful and the smell was on our pilllows so it was hard to sleep.

Crowne Plaza Knoxville Downtown University by IHG
Staff was very courteous. Room walls are extremely thin and was able to hear TVs from next room and voices clearly from hall. Rooms overlooking Main Street were unfortunately subject to multiple fire truck sirens throughout the night very clearly heard. Location is great for downtown however.
