We stayed at this hotel the night before flying out of TYS. It was the least expensive option I could find, but it was a good value. The outside looks a bit old and tired, but step inside and everything is just fine. The decor and cleanliness is inviting, and the room was also clean and comfortable. The bed was a bit soft (and I had to sleep avoiding a bit of a "hole" in the mattress) but I actually got a good night's sleep. Hopefully, they will update the mattresses in the near future. The breakfast in the morning was surprisingly varied and perfect for a pre-airport meal. The kitchen/dining area was clean and comfortable. The downside is that we no longer had a rental car and had to walk to dinner. The choices are grim, mainly fast food type places. We ended up at a very friendly Appleby's, which worked out ok. Also it's on a main highway, so driving into and out of the street it is on is a bit harrowing. Finally, the shuttle driver was just great. Very friendly and he can navigate that harrowing highway just fine! The trip to the airport was less than 10 minutes, so very well located.
