Traveling from Ohio, this was a great place for the family to stop and rest for the night. The rooms were clean with no odd smells. The pool was clean and the kids loved it. I slept well and would stay again in the future.

Limited on parking if you have a boat. The management was very accommodating though allowing us to park the truck and the boat right up front. Manager was very helpful and courteous always asking if he could help in anyway. Would definitely stay there again!

No elevator or at least I wasn’t told there was one. I am disabled and fell on the top of the stairs at this hotel. I forgot to specify that I needed a bottom floor room when I made my reservation. That was on me. I will not stay at this hotel again.

Filthy conditions in room, used 4 wipes to clean surfaces- all were grey, hair and dirt in drawers. Dirt and dust on floors and corners. Dingy, dim lighting and furniture. Pillows were yellow with age. Attendant said we were given last room with king size bed even though we booked 18 days prior. Noisy. Didn’t bother with breakfast.Don’t waste your money going here.

Everything was fine until I checked out and I saw the housekeeping lady making the beds with out changing the sheets and blankets, the room looked clean but after seeing that, I don't think it was that clean, I would definitely check other places, instead of this one. (Everything else was fine )

Night desk man who checked us in was very nice. Stayed for one night on our road trip. Room was spacious, had a microwave and a larger than usual refrigerator which was nice. Bathroom and shower/tub were also large. Breakfast was mostly continental but did have fresh waffles and biscuits and gravy. Overall was definitely worth the money and would stay again.

This was a nice, inexpensive place to stay on our way through from Florida to Michigan. However, the rooms are outdated; the microwave was from the 1980s, and it smelled a little musty and needed some improvement and paint. It is a safe location, the man at the front desk was extremely nice and the check in process went great.

It was a good place to stop with my 2 dogs on the way down to Florida. The room was small but clean and the staff were really friendly. I was woken up by loud neighbors coming back to their room and continuing their party till 2:30am but that is not management’s fault. I gave it only 4 stars because of the smell of cigarette smoke. My non-smoking room must have butted up against a smoking room because the odor was very strong and bothersome.

We have been on the road and stayed in a number of hotels and this one had the most comfortable bed and soft, comfortable bedding. A quiet and comfortable place to lay our heads for a night.

The room was very nice overall and the shower was great, the only minor complaint I would mention was that noise could very easily travel into the room from outside from what I believe was the door area. The check in process was very smooth and I appreciated that the staff called to check on when we would be arriving.

Picked this property after reading many recent 10/10 reviews. I am so glad I decided to stay here rather than one of the larger more expensive places. Firstly, it's literally right next to the I40 exit. Second, many fast food places and stores right down the road. Third, staff, parking, price, safety and cleanliness. Got in Sat evening(12/2) and was met by a very happy Howard Patel, GM. He explained everything about the room and said breakfast is served 6-9am. Went to my room and it was clean and large. Get this....fridge and microwave, not what you find in the larger chains anymore. Had a great night's sleep and went to have breakfast and met Howard again at the front desk. This guy's a beast...when does he sleep??LOL I felt safe as a solo female traveler here....definitely recommend and would stay again. BTW, breakfast was pretty decent for a motel with the room being half the price of the big guys.

Waffles, hard-boiled eggs, cereals/oatmeal, bananas, yogurt, and bread/bagels available to eat. Perfect location off I-75 with easy access to the interstate.

I made a reservation for 5 people. 2 queen beds and a roll away bed for an additional $10. When we arrived at the property I was told they didn't have a roll away. I then talked to the owner who then basically told me I was a liar. He didn't have a note on my reservation for a roll away so I didn't request a roll away. He then told me he could give me an extra pillow and blanket and my grandson could sleep on the floor! I am appalled at my family's treatment at the Lenoir City TN Econo Lodge.I then cancelled my reservation in addition to another reservation I had made for next sat. The owner never even apologized for his incompetence.Needless to say I got 2 rooms from a different hotel across the street. Much better customer service.

Although the hotel offers breakfast the owner watches you eat. If you eat too much he asks repeatedly if you really want all that food. So he makes you feel bad for eating. This happened often during out stay working out of town. Also they don't turn on the hot water heater until after 5 to save money.
