The location is not very central but it is possible to reach the Knoxville downtown in 10-15 mins by Uber/Lyft. In general, it was good enough to sleep only, but the bathrooms air condition was poor (maybe not working), full of a terrible smell.

“Okay time”
It was okay, the hotel is old and a bit creepy but the room looked clean. The little path that you can walk close to the hotel is nice (recommended by the staff at check in)

“I would never recommend staying here.”
There is a roach infestation at this hotel. There were dozens of live roaches running around the room and bathroom. It's disgusting.
