Nice little hotel
Not glitzy but it was fine. Fair rate & walkable to everything I wanted to see (Nissan Stadium, Bridgestone Arena, Ryman Auditorium, Country Music H.O.F, & Broadway. I'll stay there when they build the new stadium.

Not sure if my 1st review was posted but to sum it up hospitality and customer service was great. The place itself appears dingy and VERY MOTEL like. Pictures shown when I first booked were NOT THE ONES that are now online for reference. So beware of that...Everything appears much bigger in pictures and nicer. The KING size inside entrance rooms are better than the ones on the outside. I did not try free bkfast so am not able to speak about that. Other than that, with the right shoes, you can make a right and walk down three blocks towards Broadway and you will see the beginning of all the fun!

Pros;Good location Cons; housekeeper left our door wide open after cleaning good thing nothing was missing from our room. rooms are not very clean, no fan in the bathroom and makes the room grossly humid especially cause you can open a window, bathroom sliding door is very heavy to close and loud when it does close Elevators are located in the parkade, if you are planning on staying definitely make sure you have the upgraded suites which is what we had upon arrival to our suite the door to one of the non upgraded rooms and am sure glad we had the updated one. I would recommend if you are looking for a less expensive room definitely would suggest a apartment hotel there is one right next door

Great location, clean room, and friendly staff
The location was great, room was clean, staff were friendly and helpful. It was a little small, but was great overall. You cant park your own car and have to pay $30 per night for valet parking.

It’s the people! What an outstanding staff! I started at the Grand Hyatt but had to extend my stay in Nashville due to work meeting and booked a room at Capital. It’s obviously not the Grand Hyatt, as cost would reflect. If you’re in this price point and looking for a nice stay in Nashville I would recommend it just based on the service and staff. The breakfast wasn’t bad either!

Please help by answering my request
As this was a third party reservation, the hotel informed us that Hotels.com would provide a summary of expenses (i.e. parking charges, etc.) We have been back for five days and have not yet received this summary. How can we get a summary?

What we liked was it was Downtown Nashville. What was concerning was it was easy to hear what was going on outside in hallway. Couple had a fight early in the AM and we were woken by it.
