Ethan from front desk is the definition of excellent customer service. Above and beyond! Probably would’ve been a 3 star review if not for front desk, thank you for addressing our issues
The manager was very easy to work with it and was very accommodating when he did not have to be and breakfast was amazing. The rooms were clean and the staff was very friendly and kind would 100% recommend and the pool was well kept and so was the work out room
just wanna say thank you to the guy on 3rd shift for saving us. Every thing about our stay was great. We had booked into a crappy room and couldn't do it so we left and rode around until we came across comfort inn. Breakfast was great beds were great and we didn't hear a thing in our room. Tv was big. Was a life saver fr.
I had an excellent experience staying at the Comfort Inn in Knoxville! From start to finish, everything about this stay was top-notch. • The Staff: Every team member we encountered was cordial, friendly, and genuinely helpful. Their hospitality made a huge difference in our overall experience. • The Room: Our room was impressively clean and very spacious. It was well-equipped with all the necessary furniture and appliances (like a microwave and refrigerator) that made our stay more than comfortable. • Final Verdict: If you're looking for a reliable and welcoming place to stay in Knoxville, I highly recommend this hotel!
Great place. A little hard to find. Turn in at what is currently the Barbeque place. Room was nice and clean, bed comfortable. Pool was warm. Breakfast was nice. Definitely would stay here again.
My husband and I stayed at this hotel unexpectedly during the blizzard A few weeks ago. During this difficult and stressful time, the staff was amazing, especially Chris who handled every situation with a smile and went above and beyond to help us when we had to extend our stay bc of the weather. The rooms were clean, The breakfast was good, There was always somebody available to assist us, There was always fresh coffee and a warm fireplace and they kept the lobby clean even with all the snow and salt being tracked in. It made being stranded in a snowstorm not seem so bad. We will be staying there again! Thank you!
Great location. Very clean and well appointed hotel. Staff was very friendly! Kudos to front desk clerk "Ethan". Directed us to a Mexican food restaurant very close by.. which was excellent! Thanks Ethan!
The only reason I took a star off is because the last 3 times I have been here the handicap pool lift has been broken, which means I can't get in the pool with my son and he loves to swim. Everything else is great and the breakfast is great.
