Idiots designed the room.
Stayed in a “accessible room” and it was the worst we had ever had. Besides having mold in the shower and toothpaste on the wall (Yes, we have pictures), the room was a joke. No door to the bathroom (because handicapped people don’t need privacy?) the kitchen supplies and microwave were in the upper cabinets so no one in a wheelchair could reach it. The thermostat was also above the height for someone in a wheelchair. The hotel was nice, but they definitely need to hire an accessibly consultant because they have no clue.

I will stay here every time I come to Oak Ridge. The staff was AMAZING and so helpful. Great breakfast, great rooms. I have stayed at many hotels and this has topped even the fancier hotels I’ve stayed in! 1000/10 would recommend staying here!

5 stars ⭐️ Great stay thanks to staff who do a great job! Our air conditioning was not working, they tried to fix it, but it still wasn’t working. They moved us to another room. Ladies were very nice and made sure we were happy with the change. Breakfast was the best, excellent set up & tasted great, kudos to the staff again! 😁.

We stayed in room 514. When we walked in it had such an awful smell we were all taken back. It smelled awful - like a big animal had been kept in there and not let out for weeks. We went down and asked for any other room. They had none. They gave us a spray bottle of Febreze and offered to come up in the morning to fix it. We went to Walmart and spent over $100 to try to make it better. Nobody slept all night. The next morning a different hotel member said they had numerous complaints and had replaced the carpet and drapes. It clearly was not enough. They should never have rented out this room. They should have done anything to try to fix this. There is no way anyone could stay in this room. There was trash in the hallways that was left the entire time we were there along with dirty towels outside a room. This hotel was dirty. They had the nerve to charge us a $75 dollar pet fee - for what? There is nothing our 8 pound dog could have done to this room to make it any worse. We found another room for Saturday night. Even though the room was not inhabitable and they could do nothing to fix it they would not refund our money for the second night. This was the worst hotel I have ever stayed in by far.

I called the property prior to booking and inquired on the pool and was advised it was open and functioning. Upon arriving only to learn that it was not open and closed for maintenance. I had to disappoint a birthday boy whom thought it was having a small family pool party indoors for his birthday.

Room was smaller than I expected, room was to cluttered with furniture, had to watch where I walked to make sure I didn't trip. I expected a king bed with a hide a bed couch, that would comfortably fit 4 guest. Room had two double beds, couch was just a couch. Just not what I expected but might work out for other traveling guest. I currently have a charge of 10.00 on my credit card that I wasn't told would be there. Hopefully it will be refunded to me

Overall our stay was wonderful! Everything was very clean, the bathroom was a bit dated - but nothing terrible. Great walkable area with lots of shopping and dining. Internet was a little slow - my fiancé had to work remotely on a laptop one day during our stay and he got kicked off repeatedly throughout the day. Overall we would stay here again!

Breakfast restaurant waitress asking for a tip?(It may not be)with an unfriendly expression and serving some dishes you don't like? I felt uncomfortable because I felt like I was making a request that wasn't there.

Staying in the smokies?
We booked a non smoking room after a 16 hour car ride. We showed up and the room smelled so strongly of smoke I could barely walk in it. There were smoke stains on the walls and it probably had not been cleaned since the last person was in here.

This is at least the 4th time we have stayed here. One bedroom suite is fabulous each and every time. We bring our dog and never have any issues. The one bedroom suite gives everyone a little more room to stretch out. Love this property. It is close to family...the reason that I visit Oak Ridge and I think the price we pay is excellent for what we are getting. I find it safe to walk the dogs by yourself outside. Everyone is always friendly and nice. I will stay here again

The suite that our family of 4 was put in smelled of vomit that had been covered in cleaning products. If you are getting a suite here thinking you will do any cooking, you will be disappointed. The kitchen supplies were sparse.

The hotel was lovely and the room was large and spacious. The staff was very attentive, especially the breakfast attendants. Our main complaint was that there was an odd smell in our room. The hotel allows pets, and it smelled like pet smell trying to be covered up by air freshener. Also, there was a spot in our restroom where there was a leak at some point and there was mold there now.

We have stayed at this hotel multiple times. This past weekend has been the worst experience that I've ever had here. Our room stunk like smoke, the toilet was crooked in the bathroom, there was stuff splattered on the walls in the bathroom, and the shower has a giant crack in it. The parking was horrible. We had to park in the nail salon parking lot next door.

We have stayed here multiple times and absolutely love it. All staff are friendly, the free breakfast has many options, they have to go bags with snacks for guests who come to ride, the rooms are always clean. We will definitely be staying here again when we come to ride Windrock.

Smells like smoke
Hotel smelled like people were smoking in there rooms. On a few occasions you could smell the odor of marijuana. Understand with Covid that rooms are not cleaned daily and my guess is that some of the patrons that stay there for a week at a time take advantage and smoke anyway

Highly Recommend this hotel.
I requested a king size bed and hotels.com put me in a handicapped room that I did not want. Thankfully Staybridge Hotel staff in Oak Ridge, TN put me in a fantastic room. I usually stay at Holiday Inn Express and I really liked this location just as well! Excellent staff and comfortable clean rooms. They put me on the first floor because I had my puppies with me. I definitely would stay here when I visit family again!
