Drake Inn

Very good location, no service around, no far from the city, only drive

I asked for 15 minute grace period. On checkout so I can gather my things together and wait on my ride and I was told I had to leave the property as soon as 11 AM came around.

Didn’t get to stay. I got charged for the room and they had already rented my room to another guest. So I had to sleep in my car

Well it wasn't the property that I had a problem yet it was the room that I had checked into my reservations for spent $74 for the room the bathtub looked like that he had never been cleaned and months soap scum was about an inch thick in the bottom of the bathtub I took pictures of it showed the people at the office but yet they didn't try to offer me any money back didn't cut off me a room for another night couldn't take a shower there was no towels in the room there was no ice bucket no cups no ice bag and there was you soap still in the shower area the shower walls look like they did have been somebody threw mud on it that's how dark it was where it hadn't been cleaned in a long time I was very dissatisfied with the Drake hotel and yet they did nothing about the problem

Room was a mess. Mirror on the floor. Insulation on the floor, stains on the walls. Wall dirty..very sad condition

I feel bad posting this but I feel compelled. The staff member that worked there the day I checked in was very kind and helpful. With that being said, the condition of this historic motel is shameful. I think an investor needs to come in and take over and restore it. It was just not well kept. Not taken care of. Room smelled like mold, lamp shade was broken, everything looked worn and old. Considering this motel is from the 1950’s and has had movie stars from the past stay there, music videos filmed there, etc., it should be treated with respect and preserved. It was also in a sketchy side of town. Being from another state, I only had online photos and descriptions to reference, so when I got there I was so disappointed to see it in such poor condition, and I didn’t feel safe there, either. I literally asked for a refund about 10 minutes after arriving. I couldn’t stay there. I left and stayed at another hotel. Again, the gentlemen working there was attentive, apologetic, and kind. I hope they can fix this piece of history in Nashville, Tennessee.

I arrived for check in and noticed it is in a sketchy area. People walking around outside through the motel area back and forth. Also, we got our key cards and went to our room to get in and it would not open. The door started just constantly beeping obnoxiously. I called the front desk and eventually the lady came down there and said she couldn’t get it to work. She told us to just stay in that room EVEN THOUGH there was a blaring beeping noise from the door. We also would not be able to unlock it without her key to it. We said no, that we did not spend money to go through all this hassle. We ended up canceling after all of it was said and done because they wanted us to pay the same price for a lesser room, which makes absolutely no sense. We cancelled and STILL GOT CHARGED FOR A NIGHT WHEN WE DIDN’T STAY. We went to Best Western down the street and had a much better experience and the staff was super nice and helpful there.

The stay was ok, but they need to sweep the floors. You could see the dirt on the floor in my room.

The staff at the front desk was very friendly and helpful, but the room was quite disgusting frankly. There was mold by the shower head, the sheets and towels were all stained, and overall the room was very dingy. If you’re not picky and looking for somewhere cheap to sleep in Nashville, this is your place. If you want clean sheets and a mold-free room, it is not.
