It was a quaint little hotel in the heart of Nashville! Loved our stay. We had a great view of the city. The staff was wonderful. The only complaint that I have is that the floors in the room need to be cleaner. My feel were dirty having gone barefoot during our stay, but other than that the room was very clean and the beds were comfortable. :)

The 1st room had a strong perfume smell that a previous guest may have sprayed. They quickly made sure we had a new room. Very pleasant stay and great breakfast in the morning. We had stayed there 30 years ago and have very fond memories of staying there.

Nice place. Wonderful location. Welcoming staff. Very minimal: bed, few chairs & small table. Mattress was broke down. Not the best sleep, but made it work.

Did not care for the unfinished wood floors, i would suggest large area rugs, also the room needed proper dusting. Was not impressed with the dining, i wiuld not order the Manhattan again and the blackberry cobbler is actually how a dump cake is made.

I was accused of smoking in the room which i did not i got a room with a balcony to smoke on which i did they tried to charge me 100$ for smoking in the room. bad business to make false accusations. and if the Artists wants to talk about smells they should talk about how about as soon as you walk in how it smells like sewer!!!! smelled so bad it made me sick i asked the lady at the front desk what the smell was she acted like there was no sewer smell. the room was very clean but for a suite you would think there would be a fridge a microwave a tv thats bigger then 12in. i wont stay or recommend the Artists to anyone after the false accusations and the sewer smell in the lobby.

It’s convenient and overall a pretty clean place. The sheets were a little worn and faded. Room is small for the price- we stayed at a neighboring place earlier this year (it cost about the same) and if the opportunity arose again we’d probably pick the other hotel.
