I am a claustrophobic , and when we booked the room , there was a little description of it on the site( skylight , king bed) . The room was very small and no windows, except small opening on the ceiling , with inside light.. Like sleeping in the closet, my first night was a nightmare , having a panic attack , struggling with breathing.. I wish there would be more information about the rooms.

It's very cool concept - no person service hotel. The building is amazing , very well maintained and kept clean. Bursts of bright colours and decorations.. Comfy beds, nice strong showers.

The pipe in the ceiling of our room rattled and made a lot of noise when someone used the facilities upstairs.

It was gorgeous!

Gem of a hotel in a lovely church building in a quiet leafy area not far from downtown. Easy check in. Bonus steamer in the bathroom for freshening up clothes!

It was a quiet place. Loved the room!!

We loved everything!

We really loved the vibe of the place. I loved how they carried the church theme throughout the hotel and room with cathedral mirrors etc. The lobby was beautiful and comfortable to just hang out in. The bed was comfortable! The towels were super soft. They had a Dyson blow dryer. A great assortment of snacks and coozies with the name of the hotel on it. The grounds were beautiful. The little photo booth they had was such a fun touch! Parking right across the street at no extra charge. Walking distance to a ton of places to grab a drink or eat something. The neighborhood was lovely with tons of old historical type homes. Will definitely stay again the next time we are in Nashville. Loved it way more than staying downtown. It was only a short uber drive to Broadway.

Would have liked to have a window but it didn't bother us that much

Very nice hotel in a very nice area. Everything was great and we have to mention the shower which is extremely good.

I was shocked when the skylight opened to another room and not directly to the outside. I Couldn't find my preferred news channels on Roku.

It was interesting to see how they used the space in this heritage church. Common spaces were great. The ensuite was great, lots of electrical and USB support.

The only thing that could be addressed was we were not able to lower the volume on the television. Also the addition of a door to the toilet. However these were minor.

Everything was absolutely wonderful from the hotel room to the location.

Stayed in January 2025

Some peeling paint inside our room & other minor cosmetic needs to the interiors.

The location was great - walkable to many restaurants & bars. The room was cozy & clean & quiet - a sound machine was provided in the room. We extended our stay & the correspondence was excellent to rearrange checkout.
