    The pictures on Expedia are very misleading. Our room looked nothing like what we booked, was dirty with tears in the couch. The bed linen had blood and grass in it. The room smelled very musty and it was difficult to breathe. This motel goes by 3 different names…budget inn, royal inn, and USA inn. We did not stay and asked for a refund.

    Really, it's an adequate place to stay if cost is a factor. It was cheaper than the La Quinta next door, but not by much, and I wish I'd gone to the other because I was hosting my nieces. If it was just myself, the cost would have been the main factor and the inconveniences wouldn't have mattered. The place came across as a bit shabby. Clean, but shabby.

    Was very clean for the price. I did not like the fact that we were charged an additional deposit once we got to check in. We checked in around 2 AM and were only in the room for less than 6 hours. Just long enough to sleep.

    Check in was a hassle. The front desk employee was rude. This room was booked and paid, 6 months in advance. Upon arrival, I was told that my credit card was declined. My card is valid and should not have been declined. The only way I could check in was to pay again! The room I booked was a king with microwave and refrigerator. At that time I was told that all they had was a double. After asking why my room was not available, they found one. I get to the room and was appalled at the condition, and there was no refrigerator or microwave. I went back up and was given another room which was actually located in a more convenient spot. But the horrible condition continued. The rom was painted a dark grey and there are no lights except for an LED strip located by the window which does not illuminate even half of the room. The floor was dirty, the "chair" in the room was stained and old. The bedding has burn holes throughout. The curtain did not cover the entire window and had holes in it, and was duct-taped to the wall on the side! The sink was dirty with old toothpaste, trash can looked as if someone threw up in it and it was not cleaned. Shower had left over soap packets from the previous occupant and the shower rod was falling off and the curtain was moldy.

    We didn't like anything about the property, dirty inside and outside. Area outside pool and all around had high grass that needed to be cut badly. Sidewalks were filthy and saw a hypodermic needle lying outside our door. Stay was for 4 nights but we left after only 2. Would never, ever stay there again. Commodes lid fell off, bathtub was filthy. Bed had no bed spread and a top sheet was used for bottom sheet. Could see mattress cover on the sides and it was nasty. Don't think we have ever stayed in a place like that.

    The units have a German cockroach problem and the customer service is terrible at best. The refrigerator has a leak and has stained the floor and cause damage. Exposed outlets everywhere. Police have been here 2-3 banging and kicking at the neighbors doors, and the staff have absolutely no service manners or at least a courtesy to pretend to be professional when we come around. They’ve plastered google to make this place seem presentable and affordable and I spent a chunk of cash to house my fiance and I here for a week. Regret since we walked in the door and we will not be back. Do NOT bring your loved ones here. I would have shared a picture of the infestation of roaches but my finance has already cleaned them up because nobody should have to share their space with bugs, especially ones so vile. I’m not entirely sure how this place hasn’t been shut down yet. Please someone buy this establishment and clean it up because people shouldn’t be walk into this after spending their hard earned money. We will not be back here ever again.

    This certainly is a budget inn. It is across from the airport, so we heard planes taking off from inside the room. The staff is not rude, but not terribly friendly either. The hotel is being renovated, and our room was nice enough, but the furniture is very dated. They don't have refrigerators, and there is no ice machine onsite. If you need a bed for the night on your way through town it gets the job done.

    This hotel was so dirty we didn’t even end up staying here. We drive 45 minutes away and got another hotel room. The staff were obviously overworked and understaffed as the front desk person had to leave the desk unattended and go pick someone up from the airport. The roof in our room and the check in area looked like it was going to cave in at any moment, the sheets, floor, and walls were covered in stains and smears, and the other patrons of the hotel seemed under the influence of serious drugs. It took us about 3 seconds to decide we weren’t staying in this hotel even for one night. Don’t stay here.

    This property is horrible. I was in a bad situation I spent my last of my money on a room there through Expedia. Only to get there and find out there's a deposit so I couldn't get my room, no refund, no where else to go. Thankfully the lady working at the front desk felt sorry for me and changed my room to a double room no deposit if I let another gentleman in the same situation stay with me. I met good people there but the rest of the experience was horrible.

    I showed up late at night, sketchy neighborhood, and a woman behind glass in a stark "lobby" checked me in. I entered the room (outside entrance abutting a car dealership with very bright lights glaring in the room) to find out there were NO lights other than one above the sink, a puddle on the floor, and the curtain was not hung all the way and was not even wide enough to cover the window. There was a stain on the sheet when I pulled the covers back and the fridge/freezer had a puddle in it as well. I returned to the desk to tell them it was not clean or safe and I would not sleep there and found a different hotel. This place should be condemned.

The second room-had a brown stain and dead bugs on the sheet and the bed spread was nasty and there weee bugs running around in the bathroom. They gave me a third room after I threatened to leave. It was nicer. The sheets and spread was clean. No bugs. Still smelled a little musty. But decent.

    This was an inexpensive place to stay for a day-trip to Gatlinburg. It was a little further than I expected but the drive was beautiful with many changing leaves. The room was clean and the check-in and check-out were both easy. The man providing service was very friendly. I would recommend this hotel to anyone who does not need amenities. The room does not have a mini fridge, microwave or coffee pot. Restaurants and fast food are close by however.

    This was the most dirty hotel I've ever stayed in. I'm not confident the room was cleaned. There were stains on the bed, as well as hair and dried up soap in the bathroom. If I hadn't arrived late at night and anywhere else was available, I would have left. The walls were patchy, cheap light LED fixtures, holes in the bed cover, and the curtains were pinned together with paperclips. I DO NOT recommend this hotel.

    I got there too early to check in (that's my fault) but the dude didn't seem to know if I'd still have my room much later in the evening. Luckily, I did. Nobody was super rude, but no one was friendly either. My room had no outlets near the bed, TV didn't work, no WiFi, no cups for water, toilet was weird. Charged a $50 deposit in addition to me having already paid ahead... I did already get that back though. Fine as a last minute cheap option, but definitely not great.

I didn't want to spend a lot of money and it was a bad mistake. The bed was a three inch mattress The couch looked like it came out of the dumpster. The TV was even worse there is one cheap the Lord blanket. The mattress didn't even have a fitted sheet on it. The toilet barely plushed I spent 6 hours. There long enough to sleep with my clothes on on the bed to get up at 6:00 in the morning. Which? Is when I had to. Leave? I booked a 2 night stay and never came back. Do not come to this place this is an extended stay motel for drug addicts somebody had some cats sleeping in their truck outside I was tempted to ask if I could sleep in the truck with the cats as it would have been a better accommodations. I will say the man that ran. The front desk was very nice and as accommodating as he could it's not his fault he just. works there but the place is a total dump

    After 50 years of travel I have finally reached the bottom! This is the worst place I have ever stayed and I’ve stayed in hundreds! Dirty, no hot water at all, unsafe, surly desk clerk, holes in the wall, blood stain in the commode, no fridge, airplane noise, dirty wash cloth left in bath tub, not even a nail to hang clothes,no cup of any description, wires protruding from the wall… just horrible!

    Desperate for a room due to cancelled flight, it provided a roof, bed, and working toilet. Good location 5 minutes from airport. Staff is very pleasant and helpful. Shuttle to airport can be arranged for a small fee. Room leaves much to be desired: the non-smoking room smells like smoke and ashes were found; is missing light fixtures; linens are stained and dirty and the blankets are filled with burn holes; floors, toilet, shower, sink not cleaned. Amenities, including a/c, microwave, mini fridge, and basic cable tv are all operational.

    We waited about 30 minutes before someone came back to check us in, and she was extremely rude when she did. Rooms were filthy, blood on blankets, roaches running on the floor, the list goes on. No other hotels available that late so I ended up sleeping in my car and didn’t receive a refund.

    AC Didn’t work. Had to move to another room. Place is filthy and falling apart. I’ve stayed several times and don’t expect much but it’s gotten worse. Might be time to find a better stopover on my way to the Smokies

    Expensive trashy hotel right under an air port. Cracked window and broken light shade. Ripped couch. No toilet paper in room. No shower amenities. Dirty mini fridge. Rude staff who didnt inform me of anything. Should have known from the 3 no refund signs i saw i n the office. Disappointed to say the least. I would have rather alept in my car.

    The nonsmoking room smelled like smoke. Duvet looked like a rat had chewed on it. Mold in fridge and shower. Hair in shower. Trash in trash can. Only one panel for curtain barely covering window. So little privacy and light streamed in all night. Looked like ceiling might fall.

    My room was to have a microwave and refrigerator. Especially refrigerator because I have medication that needs to be refrigerated. The 1st room they put me in was so filthy there was actually popcorn on the floor from the previous renter. The next room they gave me had no refrigerator no microwave and the room was disgustingly dirty plus the toilett ran the whole entire night. And there was food left in the drawer of the nightstand. The 3rd room they gave me had a refrigerator and a microwave The room was still dirty and there were cobwebs on the floor in the corners of the room. I feared bed bugs. The property was disgusting and i felt unclean

    I cannot stress how bad this hotel is! Do not stay here! I booked the room through hotels.com and walked into the room to find ripped comforter, urine smell, and paint peeling off the wall. I didn't even stay but 2 minutes but they wouldn't refund my money!

    The floors were sticky and unswept. The toilet didn't flush. There was blood and God only knows what else on multiple walls. The sofa was so dirty that a dust cloud flew up around our suitcase when my husband sat it down. We checked in around 1:00 am and the woman at the front desk was rude as heck. We booked a two-day stay but didn't even stay for a whole day.

    I have literally lived in my bus for months on end when I was younger and would prefer that than to stay in this location ever again. If you are looking to smoke some meth, make a porno, traffic some young ladies, dispose of a dead body, or just want to experience purgatory then this is your place. $20 would have maybe been a reasonable price but the $70 I spent made me feel like I was horribly violated with out lubricant.

    I didn't like the place at all! The customer service was very poor... I requested two beds and they put us in a one bed room. The room also had no microwave or refrigerator. I'm never going back there again!

    I liked the price...that is most likely why everything else was terrible...it was so bad there, even the low price we paid was a bit too much. We only got 2 towels, no washcloths, hand towels or foot towels. There was no trash can in the room, only 2 pullows for a king bed, no batteries in the remote control, and the floor was rather dirty
