My sister and I had a quick girls trip here for just relaxation by the pool. The pool was wonderful but bring your own drinks. Our cosmo’s were $24 each. Way overpriced but the hotel stay was an excellent price. Quick walk to dozens of restaurants. We really enjoyed our stay.

Stayed in this fun hotel for one night on our way to Charlotte. It’s right downtown and very close to UT Knoxville. Walked across the street to a fun restaurant. Staff was super helpful, hotel was very clean. The rooftop bar is a must as the views are good and it’s a fun place to hang out. I highly recommend staying here.
