As soon as we drove in the lot, I had a bad feeling- a lot of trucks and work trucks were parked in the lot, as well as a lot of guys in sweat pants, drinking beers, and laughing with each other. Despite that, having checked the ratings on Tripadvisor, we got a room, and proceeded to check in. As... More

Stayed at the Econo Lodge for 3 nights in Knoxville, and was pleasantly surprised as I have never stayed at one before. I was part of a golfing group, and I went where the group went. When we arrived on Sunday evening, we were very warmly greeted, and were quickly given our room keys. Although the breakfast was not as... More

Comfortable room but the buffet needs some work. There is a liquor store next door, fast food and family restaurants galore including a Waffle House and an Outback Steakhouse literally at the end of the parking lot. Plenty of convenience stores and fuel stations are handy as well. This was a good location and easy to get to. Our room... More

This was our second great stay at this hotel. This hotel is priced right for us and very clean and well kept. We enjoy the free dinner and also the free breakfast. The staff is super nice and always very helpful. This is a good exit with pleny of restaurants and not too much traffic. This hotel is strongly recommended.

I used to stay here all the time when in Knoxville. This motel has gone down hill and during my last stay, ended up with bed bugs. Never again will I stay there.

We take such pride in our hotel and customer service so it truly pains us to read a review like yours. We are very concerned and, since no room number was given we carefully inspected all rooms – happily we found that there are no bed bugs in the hotel and we wonder if possibly the traveler stayed in a...

We have stayed here several times. However, the latest being November 10, 2011, we were "VERY" unsatsified. After turning down the sheets on the bed we found a large brown stain. Upon contacting the front desk, were informed that no one was there to change the sheets and no one was there to bring us clean ones. I offered to... More

I apologize for the misunderstanding that took place with our front desk during your recent stay at our hotel. I wish I had more information to research the problem you experienced, as I do keep a night housekeeper on duty until 10 PM every night. I also maintain a stock of linen items at the front desk in case there... More

The price was ok for a busy weekend booking and the room was dated/shabby but seemed very clean, so I was satisfied. That was until I found a flea on my dog right after we left. I know it's a risk when traveling with pets and staying where pets are allowed, but I was really disappointed especially after spending $130... More

I have stayed at this Econo Lodge several times and the service and rooms are always great. The room is more than worth the price, the staff is friendly, and I always feel safe while staying alone.
