    Matt was amazingly helpful on check in and when picking us up from the airport. So kind and patient with helping us find the right place. For those using the shuttle, when you go down the escalators turn left and keep going until you see a door that says Taxi - go through that door! Do not go through the rideshare doors. It’s much quieter over there anyway! As far as the rooms go, they have plenty of amenities and are clean, just dated.

    Near I40 (15-20 minutes) and super close to TYS airport. My room had cosmetic damage from previous guests but was clean and quiet and bed was comfortable. Staff was middle of the road for attention to my needs which weren't difficult.

    This place is a dump. If you normally stay at Holiday Express this is definitely a downgrade. We’re only here a night so “it’s a bed”. Avoid this place.
