The hotel and rooms are very dated, and everything looks worn. There were many vehicles in the parking lot that appeared broken down or full of junk, and there were often people hanging around smoking. It’s also much farther from downtown Knoxville than I expected. The surrounding area only has other hotels, motels, and gas stations, so you have to travel to find food, shopping, and attractions.

Rooms are falling apart, chairs held together with duct tape, no longer serve breakfast, very disappointing. The hotel reeked of marijuana every night of our stay, all rooms are non-smoking… sheets and towels all had stains. I wiped up a small spill that my child made, and the washcloth turned black, so the floors were incredibly dirty as well.

Positives: The attendant that checked me in was nice and polite, actually asked if I wanted up stairs on down. I choose down because my wife has trouble going up stairs, maybe I should have chosen the upstairs room? Anyway... The hot water was adequate The floor was not carpeted (vinyl?) The microwave was clean Negatives The room desperately needs to be painted, scuffs and marks on the walls, dirty looking The refrigerator popped and cracked all night, sounded like it wanted to blow up at any moment, maybe it was from the dings on the outside from past abuse? The hideaway sitting sofa bed was stained The suitcase holder looked rusted, old and dirty The shower curtain had ink stains or something on it The counter top in the bathroom was stained in a couple of places Last of all...the bed was hard as a rock, it felt like a box spring with a piece of plywood on top covered by a thin layer of a pillow top mattress...horrible I would not recommend this hotel or any Red Roof Inn unless they do some upgrading. We have stayed in two of them, thought we would try this one because the room looked nice and clean according to the pictures, never again will I stay at a Red Roof Inn
