Beds were comfortable. Can tell they are working to keep up condition of place. Not having a lobby elevator was difficult but at least our car was parked near the garage elevator. Bar was disappointing.

Old motel that got a facelift

Looks like it was a run down motel that got a nice remodel. It is set up more like a motel and is not in the best part of town. Wouldn’t recommend a woman staying here alone. However, staff were very kind and helpful and it was clean. Pillows weren’t great and bed squeaked every time you moved.
Amberly, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Good location

This property is a bit tired. Good location for hitting the honkytonks on Broadway and near the Ryman. Be aware that its a bit of an uphill slog to walk back to the hotel from Broadway
Judi, 4-night trip

6/10 Good

The staff was very friendly. It was clean however didnt like the fact that you had to pay for valet parking and the elevators were outside.
Kayla, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great location walking distance to downtown, a little noisy in the mornings, very nice valet staff, breakfast was okay, kind of had a scary motel vibe but ended up being pretty good.

I read reviews before booking.. but thought people were exaggerating.. THEY WERE NOT. We will not stay here again. Pay the extra for a better hotel if your staying more than two nights.. we learned our lesson. Side note: Location is good, breakfast is good.
