Unique hotel with cool vibes in a great neighborhood, close to downtown Nashville.
Pros:

This hotel is in a great location. Very walkable neighborhood with great restaurants and coffee places nearby. Also, it was so close to downtown Nashville and so much more affordable.
Comfortable bed.

Cons:

We stayed on the third floor, and while all the steps didn't really bother us (no elevator) because of how the room was situated in the church, our room was kinda dark even though it had a skylight.

Great property with some lovely finishing touches!
Pros:

Free parking was great.

The way the hotel has been converted from a church was super cool, with some really nice details and thought put into it.

The little cabins for storing luggage came in handy, as did the luggage lift!

Really nice touches in the room.

Within 20 minutes walk of the Nissan Stadium which is why we booked it.

Cons:

The only small point was noisy aircon in our room.

We met very nice people in the lobby but hated the room
Pros:

The lobby. Very pretty stained glass windows

Cons:

Our room was so tiny. In the attic with no windows. Just a skylight looking into another attic. No natural light at all

Beim gut schlafen etwas Gutes tun
Pros:

Tolles Design Hotel in einer ehemaligen Kirche, etwas abseits des ganzen Rummels. Die Atmosphäre war absolut entspannt, die Kommunikation super freundlich und die Betten waren bequem. Wir mochten die Gegend sehr gerne. Besonders überzeugt hat uns aber das Konzept, dass mit einem Teil der Einnahmen Obdachlose unterstützt werden.

I would stay there again, but hopefully be able to get a room with a window so I can see outside and be able to pull the
Pros:

It was fairly close to Nissan Stadium and the photo booth.

Cons:

No elevator for people to get to the upper rooms (did have a luggage elevator though). My room only a skylight in the room that you couldn’t cover to block out the morning light when you’re sleeping.
Also, it still looked and felt like you were in a church so it was weird trying to enjoy having a drink, etc.

True one of a kind Nashville getaway
Pros:

Marvelous and thoughtful interior design. Smart and empathetic costumer experience. Excellent location and a true sense of a one of a kind stay.

Cons:

Room was a bit small but cleverly designed to solve for that. Internet connection was a bit sketchy.

Pros:

Very cool architecture, I love the idea of the place! Great location and easy parking. Nice amenities and public areas.

Cons:

My bed didn't seem fully clean. It felt sandy/gritty when I first slid into it. I had to take the duvet off and brush the whole bed down with my hands before getting back in. I don't know, it could have been a weird fluke, but it made me feel a little uncomfy with the cleanliness. I also booked a skylight room and it was suprisingly dark. It made sense with the architecture of the building but was a little different than what I expected for a room labeled "skylight".
