Less than impressive
Property was not inviting and not as described, multi unit dwelling.. Upon entering you're greeted by bugs, rooms are spacious family slept well, bathroom has mold growing, closet has scent of mold, mini blinds on the windows are broken. I have rented homes before when going away and this was my least desirable place to stay. All it supplied what was needed for the days we stayed.

Great location
For a very busy weekend in Knoxville, the location could not be beat. It had the perfect amount of space for 5 friends who didn’t spend much time at the house. We had all the equipment needed to make a simple breakfast one morning. It was very clean. We would definitely stay there again.

Not very happy
Unfortunately we found this house to be less than acceptable. To get through the front door when we arrived were so many bugs and cob webs. The sheets although appeared clean had stains. In the silverware drawer was a dead bug and old cooked piece of spaghetti. The kitchen chairs were all ripped. I won’t go on but these are just a few examples. We paid way too much for the accommodations. The house is 10 minutes from UT which is convenient. Hard to find the driveway in the dark. A reflector on the mailbox would be helpful. 4 of us stayed for 3 days with enough room for each of us.

We had a good stay in Knoxville, the place was close to downtown and in a safe, quiet area. There’s nothing you can walk to but that’s totally fine. It had everything we needed for a couple of nights, except hangers for clothes.

Good value
The property was a good value, the owner took care of our needs. The only thing we had trouble with was getting up the steep incline of the entrance. We had to back up and get a running start with our small SUV that does not have 4-wheel drive. Other than that all was fine.

Overall very pleasant and good deal for the price. Good location to downtown. Very roomy. Very clean. Comfortable beds. Quiet location (even with guests next door). Nice efficient kitchen for meal prep. Internet stalls a bit. Towels need replacing. Sheila (owner) quickly responsive to small problem first night of our stay. Excellent problem solver. Loved Knoxville. Thank you for making the start of our vacation great.

READ BEFORE BOOKING
NO SWIMMING POOL even though she has a pool listed in amenities, public pool which you have to pay for and not hardly open or swimming in the quarry 5miles away, is all thats available. When I asked the owner about this, she literally said so what and wasn't even a little sorry she had deceived us. The area it is in is very poor and high on crime list, the train is across the road and goes by every other hour through the day and twice during the night, and if the train doesn't wake you up the Cockrell will. The outside proch was filthy with spider and webs covering the whole thing, inside wasn't too bad but the pots and pans were disgusting, grease and grime all over them. She advertises great wi-fi but there was no signal or when there was it kept going in and out, so don't plan on watching the fire tv or using a computer, you could manage Netflix or you-tube. The driveway is very steep with loose rocks over cement which makes it very hard to maneuver especially in a car. I spoke with VRBO but they didn't want to do anything, I spent 4hrs on the phone the first day I was there and nothing was sorted, my vacation was ruined as I booked this place on the fact that it had a pool I could use daily while my husband worked, and I had no car. I would have walked around but the prostitutes and homeless were wandering around all over. All in all it was the worst rather expensive for no pool unit I have ever spent, and with the attitude of VRBO (who said that she wasn't false advertising) I will not be booking with them again, and we book a cabin in the mountains every Christmas.

Amenities listed are not transparent in description
The property was very clean. The property manager was very responsive. It is better suited for those looking for a couple nights stay. One big downfall to this place is that the thermostat is set at 72. The owner did provide a fan, however. This VRBO is located in a vary low income part of town with plenty of questionable people that walk near the residence. We had zero issues with them. We stayed for five days and were without some basic necessities like hand soap. My wife worked from this place and the internet continuously cut out due to the internet company working on the line according to the owner. We received our email for checking in after we arrived that informed us that there was only enough toilet paper and paper towels for one night inconveniencing is with an added trip to the store. I would like to see more transparency in the description of the place.
