Fix your beds
We had a great experience but taken shortcuts like not rotating the beds and there’s actually dips in the beds. Does not make sure establishment. I recommended establishment as you know is the most important thing to help and when you have a mattress does not make for a happy customer.

Ok hotel in heart of Knoxville
This hotel is just ok. Walls are paper thin so you hear everything in other rooms and the hallway. Beds- hard. It’s in a nice area though.

We"ve stayed at this hotel for years. I just wish they had a incentive program for returning guest during UT football season. The rate goes up so so high we cant afford it on a retirement budget. We are taking our grandson to a game this weekend and cant afford to stay there. Makes me sad because I love the hotel and the staff is wonderful.
