Much like some of the others who reviewed before me, I wound up staying at this place out of necessity while on a crosscountry road trip with family. Everything else was booked up and this place was just off the freeway. It was dated, filthy and reminded me of a bad parody of a '70s motel way past its prime... more

My husband and I stayed at this dump on a football weekend when UT Knoxville was playing Alabama. It was a last minute trip and we needed a place to stay Saturday night. This was the only place I could find available. Now I see why it was available on such short notice. The room had a horrible smell and... more

After traveling over 500 miles we stopped at this motel at about 10:30 at night. Easiest one to get to from where we exited. BIG MISTAKE !!! We were meeting same family that lived in Knoxville and we were running late getting into town. We just checked in and meet them to eat without checking out the rooms. OH MY... more

Creepy, haunted, filthy DUMP....I've never ever seen anything like it!....filthy, lost in time since about the 70s I'd say, and not been cleaned in all that time either....bird crap all over the atrium/pool area, and it is spooky in there...i felt like lots of bad things have happened there before...definitely not safe for children or single women....since the waterfall makes... more

We checked in and payed for two nights. We walked into our room and saw mold in the tub and ceiling, dirty towels, an unmade bed, and the room had a horrible smell. There was trash all over the hallways and a huge pile of bird feces outside our room. We went back to the counter a few minutes later,... more

I came down from Michigan to attend my grandmother's funeral. I arrived on Saturday, September 23rd. I made the mistake of not viewing the room first only to discover a filthy room, no hot water, and a hole in the bathroom floor with black rings. I took a look under the hole to discover black mold. I went to the... more

This hotel should be shut down by the health department. I actually plan on contacting the health department on Monday, and sending them the pictures I took. Upon leaving the hotel, the manager at the desk was very rude to me when I told him I found the room to be completely disgusting saying "Well, our rooms are only as... more

Looked on line and seen great pictures of the hotel and booked months in advance. We drove 6 hours to get there and the place was just gross.. We had small children with us and there was no way that I would let my kids even sit on a bed in there.. Toilett seat was busted.. Should be torn down..... more

This was absolutely the most disgusting hotel/motel I have ever stayed in! Nasty dirty and gross. The whole complex smelled like sewage! There was black mold in the toilet, hair in the tub, the room smelled like an ash tray and it was a "non smoking" room. The TV was from the stone age and the remote didn't even go... more

Unfortunately we did not read the reviews until we had the displeasure of staying here. A good indication that this was not going to be a good experience was the rusted broken down box truck parked out in the parking lot. The truck and one other car were the only ones in the parking lot. Upon entering the room, the... more
