    Horrible experience, worst motel I have ever stayed in the Hilton Chain…read more Checked in OK. First night ok. Next morning used toilet and spilled coffee several places on the bed. Went out and came back later with family. We all came to my room. The room had been supposedly be cleaned. Immediately saw the sheets were not changed even though the bed was made. Went into bathroom and saw toilet had not been cleaned. I called front desk and was told n one there to correct the issues. I was offered the opportunity to come and get new linens and stuff to do changing and cleaning myself. The next morning I called the front desk and ask for late checkout. I at the time was a gold member but Diamond now. As a perk late checkout is allowed. At 11AM a knock on the door and I told I was late checkout. At 11:25AM was told either I vacate the room by 12:00 or I will be charged for another night. Unreal, I filed a complaint with Hilton and so far received no nothing. I advise avoid this place if you expect quality services and respect.

It isn't too far off I-40 and worth the drive because other hotels in the area aren't as nice and are more expensive. I 100% recommend! I'd stay here again in a heartbeat. Breakfast is included as well.

Every 30 seconds a bell rings. If there was a television, maybe you could drown it out. No way you can sleep here. There's a coffee maker in the room but it doesn't work. They say they have been brewing coffee at the " free" breakfast for the last 30 minutes, but still no coffee. I've been awake all night. Also, there's no hot water in the shower. I would have been more comfortable sleeping in the car.

I was ensured that we would have conjoining, nonsmoking rooms. When we got to the hotel around 12:30 am, the front desk worker said that they didn't promise us conjoining rooms. They also charged us for our cat, even though we paid for her fee online. The first thing my wife and I found in our room was a dirty, used face mask sitting right on the desk. After check in, we discovered that the water was not working, and they still allowed us to check in knowing this the case. After this was resolved around 2:30 in the morning, I found numerous hairs in the bathtub, and the towels had countless stains in a range of colors, with the floor towel being the worst of all. Our room was CLEARLY a smoking room, and every aspect of the room was dirty. This hotel was a colossal health hazard in every way. I am someone who rarely reviews any place of business, but if only one traveler reads this and stays away, it would be worth posting. I only wish I took photos to document this terrible experience for you. DO. NOT. STAY. HERE.

    We checked in around 11:15 PM after a long drive from Atlanta on the night of 6/2, expecting a…read morerestful night before continuing our trip to VA early the next morning. We had stayed at this location several times previously as a midpoint between Atlanta and VA. Unfortunately, the hotel lost power around midnight for several hours, leaving guests without air conditioning on a hot summer night and causing significant disruption. Another guest even became trapped in the elevator and required assistance from the Fire Department, adding to the commotion. What made the situation particularly frustrating was that the hotel was aware of the planned outage in advance, yet no proactive notification was provided despite having my contact information through my BW reservation. I only learned about the outage through a casual conversation at a nearby gas station directly prior to check-in. Had I been informed ahead of time, I would have made alternative accommodations. When I raised my concerns the next morning and simply asked about refund options, the front desk associate was dismissive, argumentative, and repeatedly placed responsibility on me for not canceling my reservation. This was especially unreasonable given the non-refundable booking terms and the fact that we arrived late at night with few practical alternatives. Rather than acknowledging the inconvenience, I was told that I should contact the utility company, which was clearly not an appropriate resolution. I appreciate that the manager, perhaps owner, that ultimately came out front, as she was calm, professional, and willing to listen. However, the employee's lack of empathy, accusatory tone, and insistence on shifting responsibility to the guest significantly worsened an already difficult experience. At point telling me to "Leave....Just Leave....Leave!!" after I stated that her tone was overly apathetic . This situation was not simply about the power outage itself, but about the hotel's failure to communicate in advance and the poor customer service that followed.

    This place was an absolute dump. Someone had a dog in this room, and you can see the pee stains on…read morethe carpet, and it smelled. Closet door was broke, Phone didn't work, Ceiling stucco was dropping, toilet seat was loose, no towels in the room when we checked in, Bed was literally 8 inches from the wall A/C unit so you could not get into bed on that side, curtains were stained, and they didn't even clean our room the last day. I had to keep going down to get towels and wash cloths from the desk. They need to just burn this place down and start over because there is too much wrong with it. If you considering staying here please keep looking at other options and not here. Real Slum Lords run this place.

    Oh my goodness what a gem this was for a tired traveler. After traveling several hours on Thursday…read more9/27 I arrived around 10:30 PM to a friendly, efficient desk clerk. Then I go to my room and the online reviews I had read were spot on. It was sparkling clean. The bed was so clean and comfortable it smelled great! Also, it was very quiet. Got a good nights sleep and enjoyed the great water pressure in the shower all for 89.00 for a king sized room. I slept late so I missed breakfast, but read online that it is good as well. How can you beat this value. I would stay there again in a heartbeat.

The workout room is incredibly nice for a motel, with ice cold AC during the summer to help you survive a thorough workout! They also have coin laundry next to the workout facility. It's a very convenient location just off I-40. My room faced the interstate and I wondered if it would be noisy. It was shockingly quiet for being right on the interstate! The downside is that the WiFi doesn't work. I had some very important work to finish for my job and was unfortunately thwarted. Even when I provided my personal information and signed up for their loyalty program, the Internet was still useless. That knocked my rating down from four stars to three.

Checked in, gave me a room key 3rd floor, then told me elevator was broken since April 27 (over 3 months). Told them my wife and I had difficulty walking and couldn't lug luggage up three flights of stairs. Sold out, no other rooms available. Asked to cancel and book me with another HI Express. Told me she was not able to that. Would you call another HI Express? No but you can. Took keys lugged luggage to opposite end and with great difficulty struggled to carry luggage three floors. Arrived at Room 301, used key and door opened into a room with clothes strewn about and someone in the shower. Painfully walked back downstairs, "Oh should be 312". Stumped back upstairs to a very outdated room, little to no furniture. Most horrible experience with a hotel in my 72 years. Wrote review 1 out of 5 to corporate IHE, with no response. Then received email from HI Express Dandridge requesting review. Send them the same 1 star review detailing this horrible experience. Then I was able read other reviews, at least 50 with 1 or 2 star reviews dating back to 3 months expressing the same 3rd. Floor, no elevator, poor shabby interior, lack of customer care or customer service. It was clear corporate HIE and IHG have known about this horrible customer experience for months and did nothing to at least warn the customer. I will be very wary of trusting HIE or HOLIDAY INN Corporate in the future.

    Very disappointing!! They advertise "FREE BREAKFAST", on-site laundry facility, ice machine, non…read moresmoking rooms. The Free Breakfast does not exist. It is posted prominently on the main sign you see from the highway. They also have a hand written sign on the wall in the lobby stating "no breakfast after 9:30am". Truth is, they do not offer breakfast at all, anytime. They do have a laundry facility. Problem is, that every washer and dryer has an "OUT OF ORDER" sign on it. They do have an ice machine. It also has an "OUT OF ORDER" sign on it. When I asked the person at the desk about ice, I was told I could buy ice at the store on the corner. The "non-smoking" room we received smelled like smoke, cigarette burns on the bed spread, burns on the bathroom counter and tub. The room did include an ironing board. But no iron. I called to speak with the manager/owner. My expectation was, we could come to some sort of compromise on the bill. She was quick to provide a verbal apology. Beyond that, all she had was poor excuses as to why all of these issue occurred. And that they where out of her control. She made it very clear, they do not have to follow the same rules for advertising and services that most chains do. She also said there was "nothing she could do". It's always disappointed when the person in charge, uses this phrase. If you are the owner/manager, there is always something you can do. You are choosing not to make it right. I explained she has the ability to make a reasonable adjustment of the charges. She said no. I advised her that all I can do as a consumer, is not return and provide honest feedback online to help others avoid the mistake I made. I see now after reading multiple reviews, they have no interest in providing a quality place to stay, ONLY IN COLLECTING $$ FOR IT.
