"Reasonably priced motel on the north side of downtown. Rates include continental breakfast."
"This beige box has 101 clean, basic motel-style rooms. The cheapest rates in downtown Nashville plus free parking make up for the total lack of charm."
"Once the home of President James K. Polk, this 100-room, five-story hotel maintains the feel of an earlier era with period decor and a great location overlooking the State Capitol."
