We had a late check-in (1:30 a.m.) and it was quick and efficient once the clerk responded to the bell (was probably napping in the back - I would have been). Two queen beds were exactly what we expected, with basic amenities like coffee and iron/board available (didn't use the coffee machine since they had it down in the lobby). Location was next to the interstate, which was convenient and made the hotel easy to locate, but it had continuous traffic making it a bit noisy, so if you're a light sleeper, we would not recommend this location without earplugs/headphones. Lots of local restaurants/gas stations within walking distance and just on the eastern edge of Knoxville (about five miles east of the Holston River). Inoperable elevator was somewhat inconvenient since we were on the second floor and have issues with our knees, but we managed during our four day stay (I would have expected this to be an emergency repair, but maybe the holiday impeded the maintenance needed). The bathroom had mold on the shower curtain and on the edges of the tub, which is unacceptable to my spouse who is a cleanliness fanatic and surprised that this Marriott property would exhibit such an oversight (we actually purchased Clorox cleaner and sprayed the areas of concern). Reported this to the manager and the curtain was replaced, but the mold was still present when we did our deep cleaning. An older property that was obviously renovated recently but still reflected some of its past history.

Elevator out of service, pool out of service. Room needed maintenance. Bed was uncomfortable. Breakfast was lame and coffee was Luke warm. A lot of truck noise from the Freeway. Overall, a very underwhelming stay.

This Marriott was not what I am accustomed to. The elevator was not working. The room was decent, it took 20 to check out and there were 3 employees at the counter. Two of the individuals didn’t even give eye contact and left the checking out process to a new employee who was having a hard time on the phone. I felt bad for her. I would not recommend this hotel.

Well paying over $200 per night, there was no room service unless you ask for it. The check in staff don’t tell you about this, there is a sheet of paper with the notice on it and you are expected to see it as you check in. It was tucked away at the corner of the counter with artificial flowers in front of it.

The hotel needs some updates and the elevator is STILL broken. I had seen it was broken from reviews a month ago, but assumed it would be fixed. It was not! The hotels in this area are mainly catering to truck drivers and tourists just passing through. It's not ideal for business travel.
