La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Knoxville Airport

10/10 Excellent

"Rooms are nice. Breakfast was good and several choices. We were most impressed by Dan at the front desk. When we arrived the elevator wasn’t working. We had requested a roll in shower room with a king bed. The only room available was on the second floor and we would need to use the stairs. I am disabled and use a cane and the stairs are not an option. Dan searched and found us a room on the first floor with two beds and a roll in shower!! This worked wonderfully and we are so appreciative!! His help alone was worth 5 stars!!"
