Excellent value
Of all the motels at which we've stayed, I think this is the very best value for the money. Quiet, clean, comfortable rooms very reasonably priced - used travel book coupon for excellent rate. Friendly staff. Nice breakfast bar - make-your-own waffles, yogurt, eggs, fruit, etc. even had a box with 6 different teas to chose from. Liked the fact that when we had a little trouble getting our room keycard to work in the morning and asked a maid if she'd open it up for us so we could get the rest of our luggage, she said we'd have to go to the front desk for assistance - thought that was a good security feature. Dumplin Valley Road West is a little tricky to see - it's just past where the off ramp of Exit 407, I40 East, Tennessee, meets Tennessee 66. Dumplin Valley Rd West climbs the hill - its intersection is easy to miss.
