First arrived at a room that smelled like cigarette smoke and asked an associate there to verify whether it did, and her response was that it "kinda" smelled like it, which was way off from a "yes" or "absolutely." It was bad enough to ask for a different room since everything in there smelled. After being assigned a different room, I told the manager that one of the entrance doors wasn't closing properly, and her response was that people sometimes leave things in the door on purpose to enter and exit the building. The main reason it wasn't closing properly was that the people who installed that door didn't do it right, but she didn't want to hear that from me, so I just walked away, saying whatever. Later on, I realized I had misplaced some keys of mine and went down to her to ask her if anyone in that first room had turned anything in, and she said no. The fact that she never tried to go to that room and ask if my keys were in there would've been nice. At least an effort or concern would've been nice. The next morning, once I turned in my key card, she asked me what the keys looked like, then got up out of her chair and went to ask another associate if he had seen anything. Zero effort, no concerns, Nasty attitude, and Unprofessional.

Room review

Chech in was easy and quick, parking was busy but i think there was a Tennessee football game so i totally understand. Unfortunately when i got into the room that's where it went wrong. Unfortunately there were dirty dishes in the sink, the toilet was dirty and cleaned properly, they left an open pack of razors on the sink, the shower had the last guests shampoo and bar of soap in there. Lastly there was an open can of pear juice on the kitchen counter and when i went to throw it out it was stuck to the counter top.
How the kitchen was left upon my arrival.

When I went to shower, the tub faucet shot off the pipe when I pulled up in the diverter for the shower. I tried to screw the faucet back on the pipe but realized the pipe had no threads to screw into. I had to was those points of contact ising the washrag to get areas wet. I had to wash my hair in the very small kitchen sink. No manager on site to talk to, just the front desk clerk (who was very nice).

Absolutely DISGUSTING No pool access, the entire hotel smelled like urine and feces. They refused to service my room, stating they only service rooms once a week, I reserved for only two days. Staff was very rude and inconsiderate and none of the housekeeping staff could speak English.
