Extremely nice and helpful staff. Pretty clean hotel. In room snack bar had expired items, but the hot crackers, as suggested by the staff, were amazing. Bathroom could use a little tlc from maintenance staff (touch up caulking, better floating of drywall, etc). This room was as expensive as a room in the Plaza Hotel, NYC, and nowhere near as nice. The state of TN needs to prevent gouging for football games.

Nice but too expensive.
Nice and quaint property in a good location. However, other options in the area offer similar experience and location at a much better value.
