Great location and value

Perfect location for a long weekend: a few easily walkable blocks to the Ryman, Tootsie's, Layla's, Jack's BBQ, and the central bus terminal (express service to Opryland Hotel/Opry Mills mega-mall and also the airport). Quick cab ride to the clubs on Church St. Comfortable room w/new bathroom; friendly and helpful staff; complimentary continental breakfast was a plus. Can't do better on a budget.

Good value for a downtown hotel

This place is a recently-renovated but older hotel with outside entrances to all the rooms. It is more secure than that sounds, though, since access to the guest floors is still through the main lobby and elevator. However the walls are bit thin, and light sleepers might be bothered by the street noise. Rooms have been recently renovated, and are nearly spotless. My room had a fridge, microwave and coffeemaker, but an old tube TV (not HD and not widescreen). Complimentary expanded continental breakfast is better than most and served until 10 AM even on weekdays. The price I paid was less than hlf of any other downtown hotel, and the location is an easy walk to the convention center (4 blocks) and lower Broadway (6 blocks). Valet parking is mandatory and will cost you an extra 16 bucks and change, but parking anywhere downtown is gonna run 10-12 per day, so it's not all that bad, really. Staff was very pleasant, accommodating and very helpful. Overall, a great value for a downtown hotel, if you don't mind the few negatives I mentioned.

Waaaaaay better than expected

We booked this hotel for the first two nights of a trip to downtown with the rest of the trip being booked at a "nicer" hotel next door. We wish we could have stayed in this one the whole time. Much better value, equal room comfort. Much better parking.

great price super friendly

I would normally stay across the street but this was a last minute trip and it was not available. So I seen this and gave it a try....parking was tricky to find but , our room was very clean, the valet attendant was super friendly along with the front desk clerk. The price and location made it even better.
