This is absolutely the nastiest, sleeziest, raunchy, trashy, dirty, scuzzy sewer pit I've ever stayed at! I had never been here before and unfortunately I booked a week before I knew what this place was! I had a bad fall about 2 weeks before staying here and I had broken my left foot and my right knee cap and had surgery on my knee to repaired it. They put me in the back of the property where I had a long walk to my room and multiple steps. The second day I was there I asked them to move me to a room without the steps and they refused to move me and told me that everything was full which was a lie! Not only was there vacant and the parking lot wasn't even half full anywhere but a friend of mine checked in the second day and he was given a room he could walk straight into with no steps! The TV has no remote and you couldn't turn the volume down they actually did have a remote for it programmed but they kept my door from opening so I had to go all the way back to the office to get new keys to get in! When I first walked into the room there were things crunching under my feet and nothing was clean! I wouldn't let a rat live in this place and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone! I will never go here again! Broken down cars everywhere and I couldn't get up the steps because one was pulled all the way up to the steps and it didn't have a tag. The owner said he would do something. The car is still there 2 weeks after I left and there are others! They only care about money!!

Traveled with my fiancé,and 18 year old daughter. We went to see a show in downtown Knoxville a 3 hour drive from where we live. Booked this hotle last minute online,because we didn't want to drive back home so late. When we got there the staff didn't speak English so it was hard to communicate he also tried to charge me a extra 10 dollars cause my reservation had two people instead of 3 which I didn't think that would matter due to it being a double bed hotel room. He gave us a room that was completely disgusting! Burn holes all over the bed cover, floor was nasty,mirror was nasty just the whole thing was horrible, and I've stayed in some 1 star hotels before nothing ever this bad, I would have slept in my car before laying on those beds! Even sleeping in the car wasn't an option because there were definitely some shady people in and out of the other hotel rooms....we drove home that night!

We were very tired from driving for hours. When we arrived there were shady people around the property and thick smell of Marijuana. When I made my reservation I asked for a non-smoking room. The decal on the door indicated no smoking. We walked in and it reeked of cigarette smoke. We had our sweet dog with us. She kept sniffing the air.There was stains on my bedspread with a cigarette hole. Needed to go to the bathroom after a long last stretch to the motel. There wasn't enough toliet paper to wipe and no other roll to be found, so my husband got our kleenex from our car. When we checked out I let the front desk lady know of our disappointment and she didnt care. We were thinking this probably wasn't the first time she heard it. Her Customer Service needs re-training. She acted liked she doesn't like her job. We couldn't wait to leave this place. The place is a dump.

One towel, 2 pillows for two beds, and they should really be called rag stuffed pillow cases. No fridge, no microwave, tv was so snowy you couldn't see faces. Requested help for TV, requested towels, requested pillows, all requests went unanswered. 80 dollars, would have been more comfortable sleeping in my car and saving the money and discomfort. Wish there had been a 0 star option. Stay clear of this hell hole.

The check in clerk couldn’t be heard because there wasn’t a hole in the glass to speak though. The room smelled so foul from the stale cigarette smoke. Roaches were crawling on the back of the door. I have never seen such a disgusting room! I immediately checked out and drove to another hotel.

Floor was very dirty and had a large depressed area where vinyl was cracked with some missing. Shower had no place to put shampoo/shower gel bottles while in shower. Shower floor was slippery and the area around drain wasn’t finished well. Needs at least one grab bar in shower. One mattress was good but the other was way too soft.

Horrible experience

The place was maybe the dirtiest hotel I’ve ever been in. The shower had a couple of used bars of soap in it, in addition to a wrapped one. It smelled like mildew. The toilet had obviously not been cleaned. The room reeked like cigarette smoke, and we didn’t even feel safe there (there were tons of people outside smoking, and it just seemed like a really rough area. For the first time in my life, we ended up leaving and going somewhere else. It was seriously the dirtiest, worst hotel room I have ever seen.

Avoid this dump

Possibly the most uncomfortable bed I’ve ever slept on. Literal holes in the drywall, crumbling apart. Several big cigarette burn holes in all the sheets/blanket. The power outlet next to the window ac unit has clearly caught on fire before. It’s almost totally black. Found trash under the bed

Roaches and not clean. Did not feel safe at all!

The first issue was it wasn't cleaned. I had to call several times for dif issues. No pillow case. Hair in the tub and only noticed that because I saw a washrag on the shower sprayer and asked my brother who has down syndrome and that was with me if he used it. I didn't think so since he was fixing to take a shower and I was getting stuff ready for him but double checked and i looked down and black curly hair all in the tub. I cleaned the sink counter with wipes i keep because with a wipe of a wet cloth stuff came off. All other places were booked for Garth Brooks or I would of changed. I asked about a dif room after seeing tub (tey had warned me the 2nd flr rooms were better but I'm disabled and hard to go up and down steps) and they said just easier to clean tub. The guy just wiped it with towels. There might of been cleaner on it already. If I had an issue they cane right away thou and were very nice. The TV didn't work and the guy came again for that and fixed it. The room also had roaches which I have never in my almost 53 years had a motel that had roaches and I've pd a hell of a lot less then 168 for 2 nights. I will put up with a lot but not bugs!
