The room was very clean and in very good condition, with new paint on the walls. The motel is set back a block away from the main road so there is no street noise, and it is a quiet, safe neighborhood. The mattress was adequate. I give it 4 stars instead of 5 because the fan made enough strange erratic noises that I had to turn it off to be able to sleep, and I believe it needs servicing. Fortunately it was not yet hot enough to require a/c throughout the night. Otherwise a great motel.

It is in the rear of a strip mall. Very near Old Hickory Lake. One mile. The property is in transition with exterior renovation in process. At first glance it looks a little seedy but the staff was super nice. The interiors were completely and excellently remodeled. Everything is brand new and excellently remodeled. I enjoyed my stay and so did many fisherman who were staying there. The breakfast is prepackaged items like granola bars but was a nice touch for an early morning snack. I would love to see how the place looks when the exterior is complete

First impressions leave an impression

We were greeted after ringing the Bell by a person wearing a shirt saying I don't give a rats ***. That pretty much summed up our welcome.
