Beautifully decorated and clean hotel.
Pros:

Rooms were exceptionally clean and beautifully decorated. The hotel was in a quiet neighborhood and only 8 minutes away from broadway street. Also had its own Parking so parking wasn’t an issue.

A unique and fun hotel
Pros:

All the facilities were good, the room was well laid out and spacious, and the beds were very comfortable. We liked the location and even without staff on site, it worked seamlessly. It was a great place for our family of four to stay!

Exceptional location, amenities like ice machine are nice
Pros:

Great location for East Nashville concerts! We drive in from Memphis and typically stay here so we can walk over to Basement East for a show.

Cons:

The room we were in needed a little refresh/ update and was smaller room than we stayed in before but was listed as same room type as previous stay.

Pros:

Location amazing, room size was perfect with lots of space and good amenities.

Cons:

Didn’t realize there was no concierge or staff on property when booking — it was a beautiful space but a little dystopian

The Russell was wonderful. The process of getting booked there was stressful.
Pros:

My check in experience was only complicated by booking.com. I think I got 12 emails or texts from them before checking in. I finally just called The Russell so I could stop trying to find the right information in an email somewhere. It was complicated and ...a bit stressful to try to find the right email with the information that I needed at check-in time.

Cons:

See above. Too many emails / texts!!

Great experience, and I would definitely stay there again in the future.
Pros:

The sheets, towels, and robes were spotless. It was the cleanest place Ive ever stayed in. The treats and wine in the room were a nice special touch. Also it was so convenient to have an ice maker and water machine right down the hall.

It was a unique experience.
Pros:

Gorgeous, unique facility.

Cons:

The neighborhood is just ok, like many hotel neighborhoods. It is louder than your typical hotel but they provide a sound machine and ear plugs and that did the job perfectly. There were high stained glass windows in our room which were pretty during the day but still let quite a bit of light from the hallway in even with the curtains closed. The curtains are a tad too short. I hung my jacket in front of the window.

Pros:

Location was great. I liked that pretty much everything was automated so I didn't have to worry about whether someone would be there when I arrived in the evening to check me in or be there early in the morning to let me check out. I didn't meet anyone in person, but the staff did respond pretty quickly via email when I needed help or had questions so that was great.

Cons:

The skylight that I paid extra for was basically just a view of the underside of the roof. You couldn't actually see the sky. :(
