Days Inn by Wyndham Knoxville East

Negatives: Traffic noise. The north side of the building is a few hundred feet from I-40, even closer to the exit ramp. The breakfast was a couple vacuum bottles of coffee and packaged snacks.

Negatives: They need more breakfast choices

Negatives: The breakfast wasn’t great, some of the room upgrades weren’t great

Negatives: Stole my deposit

Negatives: Not clean... roaches

Negatives: The room was dirty—my white socks turned black after just five minutes of walking around. There was a terrible musty smell in the room. The bed sheets had stains of unknown origin, and the refrigerator was filthy. Most importantly, I had to extend my stay for one more day, and as a result, I was charged twice for the $50 deposit, which has not been refunded yet. I know that this motel often forgets to return deposits. Please resolve this issue.

Negatives: Other tenants locking their car multiple times making the horn go off well after dark. Not something under your control. Only other thing was there was some kind of splatter on the wall in 107.

Negatives: Killed 3 cockroaches during a 1 night stay (see photos). Pillows were as flat as possible. We travel with a med that needs to be refrigerated and the mini fridge wasn't getting cold. We asked front desk about it. He came to the room, looked at it and said it's on. My husband said "but isn't not cold." Front desk employee shrugged and said it's fine. For 1 night, with ice in the coolor, the med survived, but it felt rude and dismissive the way the employee handled it. Location is literally right next to highway, which is convenient when you're coming and going, but made it extremely loud at night. No overhead lighting in the room, only lamps and lights mounted to walls, which would have been fine, except 3 bulbs were burned out upon our arrival.

Negatives: Everything was fine

Negatives: Avoid north side of motel; By GoogleEarth, Interstate 40 is 400 feet and exit ramp is 250 feet from the room; Jake brakes, screaming motorcycles, and missing mufflers made for a restless night; having a box fan for white noise helped. Worse, with reservations already made, we stayed again on the return trip. SMH! I did not see the pet fee ($15) and deposit ($50) while booking the room so the charges were surprises and lost us the savings of the low rate. We saw the "Pet Friendly" rating as an invitation to include our dog. We clean up the deposits our dog makes but, by the site's grassy area, I guess few others do, including the motel. Breakfast? Packaged sweet rolls in the lobby so we had sandwiches from the cooler.
