Check in was problematic. Keys didn’t work but was fixed as quickly as possible. Elevators were slow and always extremely crowded. Stayed at several hotels in Nashville this was my least favorite so far. Rooms were cute but no reservations were available for white limousine even 2 weeks before trip. Should consider giving people who book a room that option after they book. Overall fun experience but maybe over hyped.

Our stay at the Graduate Hotel was perfect. The hotel was new and clean , the room was beautiful. We did not see anyone come and clean our room the all time we were there (3nights) , but we had plenty of fresh towels in the closet. The area around was very nice and walkable to the Broadway. It took us 20 to 30 minutes to go to the Broadway but we mostly used Uber. The university was near by and the grounds were very nice to walk around.

In a great way, not like other hotels. Very unique and the friendliest staff I've encountered in a long while. We had to take our dog at the last minute and they were extremely accommodating. My wife and I are looking for other cities with Graduate hotels to visit.
