Rated 5.0 out of 5.0 by libgirl075 A break in the car ride
We decided to break up a 15 hour car drive into 2 days and selected this location to spend the night. The staff was extremely friendly and we were able to check in quickly. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. We did not hear any noises from others in the hotel. We woke the next morning, got ready and had breakfast. I think that one of the morning people did not show up and the front desk person was working the breakfast area. You would not have really know except that she was absent from the front desk but she never missed a beat. Breakfast items were hot and ready to go. I would definitely stay here again. No complaints.

Rated 3.0 out of 5.0 by Rose12662 Nice Room/Policy Sucks
The room was comfortable and nice. But beware if you are using the Internet to book your room!!!!!! I had made a reservation for two days to give use enough time to visit Pigeon Forge with the possibility of spending more time. When we arrived my husband was having issues with his arm. He was in a lot of pain and did not have a good night sleep. We wanted to cut our vacation a a little short and return home. We asked for a refund for the second night and they absolutely refused us any refund, we left that morning. So be prepared to pay the full price if you need to leave because of a health issue and it is my understanding for any reason. This is really to bad because I really like staying at the holiday express. There are so many other hotels we can try, I'm sure they are just as nice or nicer.

The remote control for the TV was missing and the front desk could not provide a replace that worked. To top it off we couldn't call the front desk because the phone in the room didn't work either.

Despite some renovation noise in the Morning, and having a room that the windows were covered because of that, the room was nice and staff was great.

Rated 2.0 out of 5.0 by Esmith9506 Rapid Checkout??
The supposed Rapid Check Out that is slid under the door is not a rapid check out, it does not show your balance as being zero. You have to go to the front desk and ask them to reprint you one. So having to stand at the desk and have your receipt reprinted, even though it had only been printed a few hours before that is a waste and not rapid check out.

This has been our second stay at this hotel - our family enjoyed it so much on our summer travel on I-40, we stopped again there traveling for Christmas (it is exactly half way on our journey to see family).
The staff is very friendly and accommodating, and our stays there have been very relaxing.

Rated 4.0 out of 5.0 by Okie66 Nice staff, good room
Great place to stay. Area seemed safe and well lit. Room was in excellent condition as was the rest of the facility. Food was OK as is typical of Holiday Inn Express. TV reception was very poor.

Rated 5.0 out of 5.0 by jamie38 Great service and nice hotel
After a long day on the road, I was greeted by a very nice and pleasant front desk associate. They greeted me by name and had my room ready with very little input from me. They also acknowledged my priority club membership level quickly. They were very helpful in giving me the property information and how I could secure my car in the parking lot as I was carrying equipment. The room was also very comfortable and much better than I expected arriving so late in the evening. The room was clean and was complete with a flat screen tv to watch the remaining few minutes of college football. I checked out prior to breakfast as I had to be at my final destination much earlier than originally expected. The checkout process was completely painless.

I arrived late at night around 2am. The front desk staff had turned the heat on in my room before I had gotten there which was wonderful cause it was very cold that night. After a long trip I was obviously ready to get in bed. I was checked in within a few minutes and off to my room I went. The bed was very comfy. I don't think I have slept that good in a long while. I woke up the next morning and made sure to get to breakfast so I could have a cinnamon roll and coffee if not anything else. It was delicious. The breakfast girl was very kind along with the front desk staff. I was only staying the one night but i felt very welcome and at home. I appreciated the good service and hope to stop back by soon. I was on my way to nashville so i just needed a sleep/relaxing break.

Rated 2.0 out of 5.0 by Ron60 Poor room location and lack of staff concern
I had the unpleasant experience to be placed in Room 114. It sits alone between 2 exit doors and across from the vending machines and the room housing the elevator controls. Noise was constant with comings and goings to the rear of the property. Worst began at 5:30 am when most people, including me, would like to get some much needed sleep. Lucky for me the ice machine was out of service.

Rated 2.0 out of 5.0 by Momof2greatkids Fan motor went out in room, dirty washcloth under bed
The night we arrived my husband thought our kids had left clothes under the bed and went to retrieve them. Instead he ended up touching a dirty washcloth that had been left under the bed. Early the next morning, about an hour and a half before we wanted to wake up, the motor on the fan in our heat and air unit went out and started making a horrible grinding sound that jolted us all awake. None of us could get back to sleep, which was frustrating after getting in late the night before from our trip. We mentioned all this to the front staffer, who just apologized but didn't not offer to make any amends on our bill. After some pressure, she finally did offer to take $15 off our stay. We have stayed in a lot of Holiday Inn Expresses and this one is not up to par. It looks like an old renovated hotel building. The parking is right up to the windows of the room with not even a sidewalk to separate the cars from the windows. The cars are literally outside your window if you are on the first floor. The front staff gave us a handicapped room without telling us that's what it was. In other places we have stayed, the staff has been courteous enough to let us know that. The breakfast was good and up to standard. But everything else was not, and we did not get a good night's sleep at all. The door shook really badly at 5:30 am when all those around us starting leaving their rooms. It seems like the older building might have contributed to that because it made our whole room shake and was much more of a disturbance than it is at the more modern buildings. The parking situation is very odd at this building, with the road curving around the building and nowhere to park on the sides. That was our first clue that this was not a standard Holiday Inn Express building. I would not stay here again if I had other choices.

Rated 1.0 out of 5.0 by coyote Not HI Express quality
Old building needs upgrading. Small-crowded breakfast area. Overall not the quality I expect to find when I book at an HI Express.
Will stay elsewhere next time in that area.
