At Knights Inn & Suites Emporia, travelers find a budget stop with convenient highway access, but many reviews cite notable cleanliness and maintenance issues and inconsistent amenities, especially regarding the indoor pool and the advertised breakfast.
Rooms are dated, with unreliable Wi‑Fi or TVs and limited outlets noted, though a few guests found the beds comfortable. Staff feedback is mixed—some found the team welcoming and helpful, while others struggled to reach the front desk or faced check‑in issues. Some guests also found the property hard to spot and the parking lot in poor condition. Expect an inexpensive, very basic stay with trade‑offs in upkeep and reliability.

It's cheap in quality. The pool was extremely dirty, staff said it could be used but I know an algae covered floor is not sanitary, the pool is the reason we booked here. The amenities in the room were good but the room is not in the best repair. The beds have platform bases and one of them had tape on the corner. You definitely get the bare minimum of what you expect when you’re paying for a specific guest experience. Not at all what is represented in booking sites. Breakfast consist of Little Debbie snacks, milk if you get there early enough and small yogurt cups; there wasn’t any fruit.

We rented 2 rooms, both non-smoking. One room was reaking of cigarette smoke, lamps were not near any plug ins so no lighting, water marks all over the ceiling, dirty sheets.The other room had a lamp missing a light bulb and the shower did not work at all. Pubic hairs were found on the toilet and in bathtub. Also, the smoke detectors in both rooms were not working. Scary since they obviously don't follow the no smoking rule. The breakfast was just prepackaged cereal and no coffee available. The indoor swimming pool was freezing a filthy. Overall this was one of the most disappointing stays I have ever experienced.

The pool is rarely open as we have been here before. There were only 2 standard pillows for the king size bed and the usb ports were very loose and there were no outlets by the bed on either side.

Mold floating on surface of liquid remaining in coffee pot suggests lack of thoroughness in cleaning standards. Stairwell to 2nd floor unit was littered and did not seem to have been cleaned in quite a while. Pool, however, was beautiful and large, although hot tub appeared to be permanently closed. Breakfast was disappointing and no water or fruit was available. Beds were comfortable and I did get a good night’s sleep.

The motel provides a budget alternative to some of the other higher priced hotels. However, the listing is somewhat misleading. It shows an indoor pool and hot tub open and ready for use. Neither is available. Despite being indoors, the entire area is "closed for the season". I would have liked the opportunity to use both. The listing also describes breakfast, which consists of coffee and cold cereal. Based on my stay at other properties, breakfast generally includes at a minimum, juice and pancakes or waffles. Usually, it also includes eggs and sausage or bacon, as well as biscuits and yogurt or fruit or both. This properties offering would be better described as continental breakfast. The room was acceptable, but somewhat spartan.

The gal working there was amazing. She moved us immediately when we saw our bathroom was flooded. I will admit I was upset I called in advance to see if the pool was open, closed. It was open but COLD no heat.

The property could use some refreshing, but it wasn’t bad. The indoor pool looked a little gross, but it was unavailable anyway. The tub was why I booked the room, and it was different than the listing but a fun surprise!

The whole place is filthy. Our room was not cleaned, the bathroom still had soap from the previous guest. There was hair and filth on the sheets. They did give me new sheets and pillowcases. We cleaned the room ourselves. There was hair and filth on the bathroom fixtures as well. I’m adding pictures here

Couldn’t use the tv. We couldn’t figure out how to work it. Even the younger kids and grandkids didn’t know how it worked. I tried to call up front to ask ,and tried to talk to someone the next morning and didn’t see anyone. As a senior citizen I couldn’t turn on the bathroom shower and my daughter had to figure it out. Not a good place for seniors.

This place is a dump! Do not stay here! Very dated, although it seemed clean. Only SOME of the rooms have a hairdryer. When I asked for one, the guy at the front desk told me he would have to ask the manager, and that would be the next day. I ended up going out and having to buy one. The TV didn't work - the picture was fuzzy. The last straw was that I came back from a 5 hour bike ride, and there was no hot water. Even though I had booked a 4 night stay, I asked to be able to check out early so that I could get ANOTHER hotel that actually had hot water. One of the worst hotel experiences I ever had. I wasted half an afternoon packing all my gear up, and moving to another hotel

What I expected. Rooms need more outlets to charge laptops and cell phones. Even simply replacing the lamps on night stand and desk with ones that have extra outlets or charge plugs would be enough.

House keeping was very nice, but front office was not. The facility is run down and theres garbage everywhere. The room had holes in the wall and around some ceiling lights there was no sheet rock/wall filling around the light. The towels had stains on them, carpets old and dirty. Its a value for sure, but you get what you pay for. Don't even advertise a continental breakfast, just say they have coffee available.

I tried to turn in my room key and no one was at the front counter and the doors were all locked to put in their drop box. I had to slide my room key under the lobby door so they wouldn’t charge me for stealing a key. Also when I tried to call them 5 times thru out the day to tell them this info no one picked up. Bad management!

Dead bugs on the floor under the air conditioner. Security chain was broken. Rooms needs refreshed/updated. Nightstand lamp didn't work. Noisy clientele, very loud parking lot party.

Dining
Breakfast is very limited, inconsistently available, or sometimes not provided despite being advertised. Expect mostly prepackaged items rather than a full hot breakfast.

They said breakfast started at 7. We hung around till 7 to drx and we asked and he said breakfast at 7:.30op our room keys off and there was no one at the front desk therefore no breakfast. We called and he came out and looked like he just got out of bed

It's cheap in quality. The pool was extremely dirty, staff said it could be used but I know an algae covered floor is not sanitary, the pool is the reason we booked here. The amenities in the room were good but the room is not in the best repair. The beds have platform bases and one of them had tape on the corner. You definitely get the bare minimum of what you expect when you’re paying for a specific guest experience. Not at all what is represented in booking sites. Breakfast consist of Little Debbie snacks, milk if you get there early enough and small yogurt cups; there wasn’t any fruit.

I didn’t like how dirty it was, couldn’t connect to the Wi-Fi and the tv didn’t work very good and the free breakfast that I was told that I lead suppose to get never happened. I probably won’t ever try to stay there again

We rented 2 rooms, both non-smoking. One room was reaking of cigarette smoke, lamps were not near any plug ins so no lighting, water marks all over the ceiling, dirty sheets.The other room had a lamp missing a light bulb and the shower did not work at all. Pubic hairs were found on the toilet and in bathtub. Also, the smoke detectors in both rooms were not working. Scary since they obviously don't follow the no smoking rule. The breakfast was just prepackaged cereal and no coffee available. The indoor swimming pool was freezing a filthy. Overall this was one of the most disappointing stays I have ever experienced.

Mold floating on surface of liquid remaining in coffee pot suggests lack of thoroughness in cleaning standards. Stairwell to 2nd floor unit was littered and did not seem to have been cleaned in quite a while. Pool, however, was beautiful and large, although hot tub appeared to be permanently closed. Breakfast was disappointing and no water or fruit was available. Beds were comfortable and I did get a good night’s sleep.

The motel provides a budget alternative to some of the other higher priced hotels. However, the listing is somewhat misleading. It shows an indoor pool and hot tub open and ready for use. Neither is available. Despite being indoors, the entire area is "closed for the season". I would have liked the opportunity to use both. The listing also describes breakfast, which consists of coffee and cold cereal. Based on my stay at other properties, breakfast generally includes at a minimum, juice and pancakes or waffles. Usually, it also includes eggs and sausage or bacon, as well as biscuits and yogurt or fruit or both. This properties offering would be better described as continental breakfast. The room was acceptable, but somewhat spartan.

Decent value for the cost - if you're just looking for a place to sleep, while on the road. Older furnishings and bed, but clean. Free 'breakfast' is a joke. Go somewhere else.

Cleanliness was okay. Was looking forward to Continental breakfast Saturday morning, but come to find out they don't serve it on Saturday and Sunday!

Filthy, crumbling. Furniture looks like it was found on the roadside. No outlets in room. Blood stains on carpet and chair. Oh yeah, the water was out for a few hiurs. Yikes.

Besides room looking a bit on the older side the house keepers had no prob lying and accusing me of smoking when I clearly didn't I simply threw my cigarette butts in the toilet instead of throwing them on the walkway so even after proving them wrong the owner actually told his employee make me a deposit to rent there Stay away
