Very run down, linens were very thin and towels had bleach marks on them and were so thin you could hardly dry off. The bed was comfortable enough. Bathroom had a water leak and the floor was very wet. Understandably is an old building and inn and priced for that but not very clean overall

To be fair it's a 1 star hotel the room was large and clean. It was a Saturday night downtown so noise outside but not bad and served the purpose.

Upgrade needed!!!!!
The first room I was assigned had cold air coming in from under the front door.
I was given another room, the TV was difficult to navigate the local channels.
No housekeeping performed for the duration of stay.
Location was very convenient.

Dirty, dilapidated building with exposed wires, torn up drywall, graffiti and mold on the walls, cockeyed bed bug riddled beds and mattresses. Do not try to stay here.

Already reviewed this but since Wotif keeps bugging to do again I'll reiterate, it was a great comfortable place to stay. Sure the floors and other areas could do with a good deep clean then maybe a coat of paint on the walls, but hey they'd then be able to charge more so was glad they didn't as otherwise with no backpacker hostels in Nashville I wouldn't have had anywhere this good to stay. Also on the airport to central bus route.

Drake Motel granted isn't looking the best these days, and is the type of place where the soles of your feet turn black walking on the room floor, the walls could use a paint, and well the room isn't very clean. But I liked it there. And if they renovated or cleaned up there wouldn't be as many vacancies or as cheap prices.
You've got a country radio station playing 24hrs just through the entrance. It's a couple of minutes walk to many local bus stops including the route from the airport. The massive bed was really comfortable, it had a fridge, and Wi-fi wasn't bad.
