Stayed at the Thunderbird Motel for 5 days over the Memorial Day Weekend of this year. Front desk staff was very friendly and very accomodating. Upon check-in and gaining access to our room we discovered that our electric key cards wouldn't open the door. Front desk informed me that maintenance and repairs had been performed on the lock mechanism earlier... More

Hotel was clean. The beds were comfortable. Our room was off of the street, so it was quite. Good breakfast in the morning with hard boiled eggs. Located by gas stations and restaurants. The internet worked good as well.

This was an amazing place to stay. I was a little unsure as I had seen the outside a few times before. It is an older property but very well kept up. The rooms were clean and quiet. I felt safe in my room. The staff were friendly and helpful. I am planning on staying here again when I am... More

I am a 12-year-old dog. I'm comfortable sleeping most places, but getting to our 2nd-floor room was nothing short of a nightmare. YOU COULD SEE THROUGH THE STAIRS! The elevator? Equally terrifying. I was humiliated when Brad carried my 70 pounds of awesomeness down the stairs in front of EVERYONE. Aside from that, my people seemed well-rested and happy with... More

This was a Priceline "Express" deal, so before we booked, we had no way to know that this motel was a "motor lodge" the type where the room doors open directly outside. Due to past unpleasant experiences with this type of motel, I was upset when I learned we got this room. It turned out to be great. All other... More

Stopped here for the night and was very satisfied with room for this location. We pass through this area often when traveling and this is a great town for a room and good meal at Crawdaddy's. Our room was clean and the place is in very good condition but it is an older place. Breakfast was good the next morning.... More

I must say that I liked this hotel. My chief complaint is that I booked this hotel through Hotwire for $71 after taxes and fees. I could have booked the same room through the hotel website or through another travel website for $63 after taxes and fees. Does anyone go to Hotwire to book a room for more than the... More

We stayed at the Best Western Thunderbird Cookeville twice last year on our way back and forth to the Brooklyn Cruise Terminal. This place has a huge parking lot with a pool in the middle of it. The pool is lined with a grassy bank, hedges, and flower beds. This was the perfect place for my dog to take a... More
