Friendly staff- sloppy rooms
I am not a “hotel snob” but if I’m paying $300/night I expect the curtains to close and to have a basic coffee maker in my room. Got a suite for a one night stopover during a long road trip and the staff was super nice however the curtains did not even close (neither of the two windows in the suite, so the sun awakened us all at 0630. Perhaps worse yet, there was an electric tea kettle and coffee cups with creamer stir sticks and sugar but no coffee itself or hot tea at all. Just sloppy for a $300/night room.

Stay was fine. Hotel is in a great location for UT. Hallways and rooms were pretty clean but could be better. Registration staff was personable. Valet staff very personable. Valet pricing too high. We did not take advantage of food options this time, except lobby coffee, which was perfectly made to order.

Amazing location if you are visiting the University. Lobby is super cute and school spirit is everywhere! Rooms are cute but some of the furniture / bedding could use a refresh. Pillow case had holes in it. Bed platform upholstery was worn / dirty looking. Overall the rooms decor is very cute though. Staff is so friendly!

Had to be at the local hospital early. The hotel was the closest. What a great surprise!! Decent price and very comfortable room. The whole place is packed with awesome Vols decor. Can’t wait to be there during a game weekend.

Customer service was lovely. It was cute and quirky. The room felt damp. There was only instant coffee in the room…weird and the coffee bar was not open. There is coffee within walking distance. I assume this place is crazy during sporting events but was nice stay without!

Beautiful but clogged
The hotel is beautiful. Unfortunately, the sink in our room (704) was fully clogged and would not drain. The front desk stated the maintenance wasn't available to fix the issue so they moved us to a another room (703). Ironically, that bathroom sink was also fully clogged. It's not the biggest deal but also expected a stay with zero issues.. especially for my wifes birthday. Just a reminder to check all drains on a consistent basis.

Not great at all, first room smelled like dog urine and second room had stains on bedding and mold in the shower. Also, VIP status wasn’t recognized, so we did not get the $15 food and beverage credit
