Staff and service was wonderful. Older building but charming and close to downtown Nash. The immediate neighborhood isn't too good, but that's not what I was there for -- as I said it's close to everything downtown and THAT is what I was there for. :) I'd stay at the Drake again for sure.

We booked a non smoking room, but when we arrived they told us that they don't have any non smoking rooms left. They wanted to put us in a smoking room,, but we couldn't stand the smell there. Therefore we decided to not stay here and look for another accomodation. The staff was very nice though and apologized for the mix-up.

The place is a literal dump. The staff is nice. Uber doesn’t want to pick you up here. They overcharged me $10. It was supposed to be $106. Then they said there is a $3 charge for paying with a credit card. So it should have been $110.53 after room tax and fee and the charge is for $120 and some change. I was embarrassed to stay at this dump.

I am reluctant to post this, but I will anyway. The staff were amazing in responding to problems we had. Both the TV & hot tub weren’t working, but a maintenance man quickly to address the issues. The toilet in Bathroom barely flushed. & All the electrical outlets were “loose” I wan unable to charge my phone cause the charge was barely able to stay plugged in. Overall, I would not be returning , & staying downtown at more modern, operational rooms.

The staff was amazing, my room very cute and cozy, comfy bed, quiet and peaceful despite being right in Nashville. Conveniently close to everything and a great rate, 10/10!
Broadway with so much to do, (GoodNight Nashville is JellyRoll's bar) is less than a ten minute drive, under 4 miles.

I called after I checked in because the TV wasn't working at all. The front desk said it would be taken care of shortly. That never happened. The frig leaked all night and I stepped into a puddle in my socks. I told them at checkout but it was the same girl from the night before. She said the manager said to call in a few days. This is the worst experience ever!!!

The room that we reserved was for two doubles in a non-smoking room. What they gave us was a smoking room with cigarettes burns in the comforter and a broken moldy bed! It was disgusting! When we asked for a new room, they put us in a 1 king bed room for 3 adults. It was awful. Zero stars.

Desk staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The property is very run down and could use a major overhaul. Would not recommend staying there.
