Before my visit to this hotel, I had just come from the Hilton Hotel in downtown Nashville. The Holiday Inn was 10 times cleaner, the staff was much nicer and the beds were more comfortable than the Hilton. I give the Holiday Inn a 20 out of 10! Fantastic Stay!! 👍

My only complaint would be that they have zero USB charging ports in the room. Saw them available in the dining area the next morning but we were leaving so no time to charge electronics. If you are planning a stay here be sure to pack a charging block.
