Liked: Staff & service
If all you're looking for a reasonably priced motel near downtown Nashville the Drake may be for you. It has been updated but make no mistake this is a no frills place. The floors have been updated and there are new locks on the doors. The linens/towels are low end. Other updates are lacking, especially ac units and overall fit and finishes. We didnt use it but the pool and adjacent barbecue area looked really nice. The staff is generally friendly and helpful.

Only 2 outlets worked in the entire room. Towels felt like sand paper. Lighting is terrible. No trashcan in bathroom. Charged me a deposit then still paid full price for room.

Door had been kicked in and poorly reattached. Huge gap under door. Lights inop, bulb missing, outlets work out so so could not recharge my phone. Horrible cigarette smell, smallest towels I have ever had, no daily room servicing, shower filthy, toiled loose, dirt and clutter on floor. Survived my 3 night stay with only 2 bed bug bites. Glad I was traveling solo so I didn’t have to worry about the safety and well being of someone else.

Liked the history of the property and convenience to downtown. The night staff at the lobby desk were nice. Just place was very dated and needed work. No light covers over plugs on my side of bed. Found dead roaches behind end tables and under bed. 2 giant ones that were still alive on the bathroom shower curtain.

It's a quirky old motel but you can tell they have been updating the rooms. All the staff was really friendly and helpful and right on the bus line to get downtown so worked really well.

Like taking a classic car for a ride.
Enjoyed our stay. It is old and has more than a few blemishes. You go with that in mind and you can enjoy the history. It was clean and the front desk was super friendly. The beds were a little hard and the sheets had seen better days. I would say there again.

Wasn't a great place to stay imo. The facility was dated, my curtain had a tear/hole, ac unit is loud, room small, bathroom felt very old. Price was cheap, relatively close to downtown though, and it didn't feel like a dangerous neighborhood.
