Comfort Inn Downtown Nashville - Music City Center
Room was really nice. Good smell when we entered. Bed was comfortable. Nice neighborhood, not noisy. It says 14 minutes walk to Broadway street: I’d say more 20-22 minutes. But nice site seeing. Would recommend. Breakfast was awesome: chef doing omelettes!
