When arrived there was homeless people sleeping on the sidewalks in fount of the hotel. We tried to talk to the lady at the front desk she was very rude. They told us to come back in a hour they were busy. The house keepers were outside arguing with each other. The doors fro the rooms were open and the rooms looked filthy. We left as we were a half a block away there was a group of middle aged people walking down the middle of the road yelling and cussing at all the cars driving by. On the corner there were a group of people fighting. We went back to the hotel again the lady’s at the front desk was unhelpful and stated they were busy. At this point I told the lady’s at the desk we did not feel safe staying here. Her response was you will still have to pay for your stay. I told her I would rather pay for the stay than to stay somewhere people were rude and unhelpful. And that our safety is more important than money. My husband and myself then left and never went back. I do not recommend this place to my worse enemy.

I liked the location and since it was my first time to Nashville, I wanted to stay here because some of the legendary musicians had stayed there. The manager was really nice. I did not like the room, I was expecting it to be a very updated and clean room.
Probably not the best location, but the bus downtown is a few dollars, or Uber for $9. I had a great time downtown and would stay here again.

Fine
It was fine. The room was comfortable. It smelled a little like people had smoked in the room. The toilet seat was slightly in disrepair. But it was fine.
My room was disgusting The pictures and reviews on hotels.com didn't know justice I should have gone to Google to verify other actual people's pictures and reviews I took several pictures of disgusting stuff because it's too much to type. *Just kidding I just tried to add photos in the app will not let me even after I restarted the app but I have the pictures to send to who needs to see them!*
Arrived at 10pm. Front desk says that the booked non-smoking room was not available. Was told that I could go to other properties ay 11pm. Finally, magically a room was available, which clearly was a smoking room, so many bugs that had to wear shoes to walk around the room. Impossible to use a disgusting washroom and on top, party on the next room that didn't stop until 4am.
Regretted every single minute in this place, hated it and would never consider going back.
