⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I had an amazing stay here. I originally planned to stay one month, but I enjoyed it so much that I ended up staying five months. The home is very cozy, clean, and comfortable, and it truly feels like a home away from home. Everything was well maintained and the space was perfect for both relaxing and longer stays. The location is excellent, close to downtown Knoxville, restaurants, shops, parks, and trails, while still being in a quiet and peaceful area. Getting around the city was very easy. The host was absolutely amazing very responsive, friendly, and always helpful whenever I needed anything. Communication was smooth the entire time, and the check-in process was simple and convenient. Overall, this was a wonderful experience and I would highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Knoxville. I would definitely stay here again!

Overall great stay. Home was cozy and well appointed. An item of note Halo is an intermediary, you do not directly interact with the owner or maintenance. This sometimes caused delays or extra back and forth in certain areas (like extending a stay, figuring out electrical problems, etc). One item I would recommend to Halo is checking in on extended stay guests needs throughout there stay, not just at check-in. Lastly, Knoxville does get snow during the winter and other than dropping off some icemelt "for me to put down" there was no shoveling provided. This posed challenging for the driveway (luckily I had 4-Wheel drive) and the walkway. Even in apartment complexes (not an AirBnB) they put down ice melt and shovel. On the positive note it is a quiet neighborhood and great location near the university and a major highway.
