I loved the room at Scarette- Bennett. Simple, extremely clean, quite and close to my nephew's home. Not too far from Music Row spots and walkable to restaurants. Access to electric scooter easy and all over. Used Lyft for going to and from Broadway.

Holiday Inn Express Nashville Airport, an IHG Hotel

**We have recently renovated as of July 2011, come experience our new carpet, mattresses, and TVs. Ask about our Park and Fly package!** The Holiday Inn Express Nashville Airport is located near the Nashville International Airport (BNA) and eight miles from downtown Nashville with easy access to major highways. Hotel is newly renovated with a beautiful fireplace in the lobby area. The Holiday Inn Express breakfast bar is the best way to start your day in the morning.

Do not stay here, choose another hotel.

Reviewed By Kris H

In their description of this hotel, it says the rooms have been remodeled, not the case! This hotel is old and dirty. The mattress was not new and was so bad. I killed bugs in the bathroom, only to find more the next day. Carpet filthy! We were told 7 or more cars were broken into in their parking lot the night we were there. Entire car windows removed, so much for any security in their lots. The desk staff and cafe staff were rude. Tables were not wiped off in the breakfast area. Spend your dollars somewhere else. This is the worst HIE we have ever experienced. Sad.

This location is a complete dump, I wouldn’t let my dog stay in their rooms. We found food wrappers on the floor, stained towels, comforters, water stained ceiling and flies. The socket looked like a fire hazard and it smelled like cigarettes in a nonsmoking room. The worst!

STAY FAR AWAY FROM THIS PLACE

Reviewed By Gfunk79

We arrived at the site and realized it’s in the ghetto. It’s a total crack motel. The owner approached us while we were debating if we’d even get out of the car. He was less than friendly and was VERY distracted during our conversation, keeping an eye on all the activities of the crazy crackheads on the property. After expressing our concerns to the owner he said “you can chose to do business with us or not”. We didn’t end up even leaving the car and split. He STILL charged my card $106. I emailed and asked for a refund, it’s been a week and no response. I also appealed it through booking.com and they said it’s between me & the owner. As of today, more than a week later, nothing. I am effing pissed. Don’t waste your money or time on this s*** hole. Go to the holiday inn a few miles away.

Reviewed By Mike M

We had used our Wyndham Rewards to book 3 nights here and when we pulled up we new we were in trouble. It appeared drugs were being sold in the parking lot. It is a very seedy part of town. I went in and got a key just to see if the room even came close to the internets pictures and of course the answer is no. They smelled like incense had been burned in them to cover up other odors. I took the key back and we left and went to a Marriott and it was so much better. Fortunately, Wyndham reinstated my points used since I immediately called them and let them know what was going on.

I would NOT recommend this property. The room was terribly dirty, the linens were stained, burned, and thin. The room was in disrepair and smelled foul. Lock was broken and it was a motel vs. a hotel. Felt unsafe and incredibly uncomfortable.

This 3-story motel is seconds off of the interstate. There is a major renovation taking place at the site. It did not affect us whatsoever. We stayed in a newly remodeled room. It was very quiet and comfortable. Plenty of room to move around inside. Electric outlets were numerous. Room was clean. Air/heat worked perfectly. Pool is big and was busy with families swimming. Breakfast was available. Staff was visible, helpful, and friendly. We would definitely use this motel on a future visit.

Fine & Pleasant--Know the Pros & Cons!

Reviewed By nyersteve

If you are looking or expecting The HILTON or The WALDOROFF....DON'T stay at the Drake Hotel. If you're looking for a an older hotel where celebrities have stayed and films and music videos have been filmed.....then THE DRAKE HOTEL is for you! This pleasantly kitschy hotel was probably a hit in its hay day......Dolly Parton stayed there and other up incoming country western stars. Try to get or asked for one of the mural rooms......the room I had was The Elvis Presley Room......two murals of The King on each side of bed! The room was clean and cleaned daily. The front desk staff were accommodating and FRIENDLY....one friendlier than the next! BUT BEWARE......the area and neighborhood THE DRAKE is located in is NOT one of Nashville's finest.......if you're driving you'll be fine. You are warned not to walk around at night AT ALL! The Lane Auto Museum is within walking distance as is one of Nashville's finest steak houses ......during the day you're fine to walk around but NOT AT NIGHT! The location is conveniently very close to DOWNTOWN Nashville maybe 2 or 3 miles.........but DO NOT WALK THOSE 2 or 3 miles AT ALL DAY OR NIGHT! There is a city bus stop close to the hotel about a block away...walk no further!! All in all.....if you are on a budget THE DRAKE HOTEL is the place for you......if you are extremely fussy and expecting a 5 star hotel.....do yourself and the hotel a favor stay (and pay for) The Hilton or The Omni! My stay was fine and very pleasant. I would recommend THE DRAKE HOTEL just know the pros & cons!
