This hotel was wonderful! We felt comfortable because it was clean, the maids did a wonderful job! The area is sort of a college town, bars, and such. It has a good vibe but our view was of the alleyway and saw a few weird things outside. But the inside was great and so were the employees, speedy check in included!

Outstanding

I seldom write reviews. But this hotel far exceeded my expectations. Spacious, well-appointed room, seemingly brand new & perfectly clean. Helpful, friendly staff. Great complimentary breakfast. Perfect location for downtown theaters and restaurants — both easily walkable. We will definitely use this hotel again the next time we’re in Knoxville.

Property was beautiful, staff was very nice. My only complaint would be that this hotel came up as a good family friendly hotel. I disagree. Our family of 4 was put in the room closest to a meeting room, so we constantly felt like we had to be extra quiet and battled catering lines to get out of our room. Also, the pool is not for kids at all. It’s through the rooftop bar which made it feel very awkward. Kids couldn’t really play in it because it was so small and felt so out of place.

Overall the property was beautiful. I was a bit disappointed in the breakfast staff. At 9:30am, we arrived for breakfast which had just closed, the staff was making to-go plates for themselves of all the warmed food and told us the grill was closed and to come back tomorrow. They did not offer us (paying customers) a yo-go container. I was completely shocked and disappointed with the “sweet” words of rejection and lack of empathy. I did personally mention the experience to the manager who agreed that the staff should have offered a to go container. I understand the remaining food is a blessing for the staff, BUT it is not specifically made for them rather for the guests. Loved the rest of my visit other than this particular event the morning of checkout.
