Rough around the edges

Honestly, a little rough for a Fairfield Inn. Grounds covered with weeds, no AC in the hallways, smell of chlorine in the lobby.

The Fairfield Inn & Suites, Knoxville East was very good. The staff was really helpful and kind. Although there was some work being done on the hotel, the staff was very aware of the people staying and very safe. The rooms were very clean and neat. The room was comfortable and the beds good.

Night in Knoxville

Was our bad timing to arrive as the lobby was being re-tiled, the elevator out of service, and the fitness center closed (for the re-tiling). We stayed on the first floor and our visit was fine; nice breakfast. When we reported a bulb out, front desk provided a new one. Nice comfortable bed

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
We were on 3rd floor because I asked for the quietest room possible. The toilet ran all night. We kept the bathroom door closed to lessen the sound. There were a few holes in the drywall and the corner had missing drywall. The beds & bathroom were clean and we were exhausted at nearly midnight when we checked in. We were too tired to ask for a different room. Breakfast was extremely basic, but included so you can’t beat it. sausage links were the only meat and too over cooked to eat. They did have a couple cold cereal options and a make your own waffle station. The staff member at the desk when we checked it was very welcoming and extremely nice.
