"The property was fine but feels a little worn down. I didn't feel like it was dirty but just could use a little sprucing up. The shades in my room were broken and the sink drain a bit slow."

"Came for UT orientation. Easy access off Hwy 35 and straight shot to campus. Staff were amazing. Breakfast was good. Room was cleaned and property was well maintained. Only down fall the bed was a little too firm for my taste. But that is my opinion. Will stay here again to visit."
