Drake Inn

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

This was the worst experience ever. The place was dirty. The bed had dirty sheets on it. I went to the front desk to ask for new sheets and they told me they didn’t have any more and that I would have to wait until the morning to get new ones. We ended up leaving and driving home 5 hours in the middle of the night. They refuse to refund my money and we didn’t even stay there.

Staff where friendly, but the room was by far the dirtiest I have ever been in. 2" gap under the door that went outside, Heater was broken, shower was full of hair and clearly not cleaned. Literally found a cookie in the bed and a pair of handcuffs in the other bed. Property was undergoing roof repair and sidewalks where tore up. Major improvements needed

the room air conditioner filter was nasty and when it was on the room smelled of tobacco smoke.

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.
