We were in a renovated king room. It was ok, still showed the age of the hotel but was clean enough. The staff we encountered at check in was very kind. The staff after that was rigid an unhelpful. Traffic is very loud along the main street (not the fault of the hotel, but something to note in any case). Go into this with the understanding that you get what you pay for!

Motel from hell

Well it all started with them giving us the wrong room because they gave our room to somebody else even though ours was reserved. They didn't care that they did this and let us sleep on what I believe was a full size mattress when we are supposed to have a game. She is disabled I am permanently disabled as well and as a disabled veteran I don't appreciate the lack of concern. The ID they have on file or had was my department of defense ID. So it's not like they didn't know. Then we got to our lovely room. Which hadn't been dusted or cleaned and God knows how long it barely had a comforter which was not even worth calling a cover it was more like a dust cover with one sheet and two pillows. The rock hard mattress made sleeping even more difficult. Overall this is probably one of the worst hotels I have ever stayed in. And I have traveled quite a bit through the military and delivering furniture at one point 12 years in the Army you stay in a couple hotels if you catch my drift. Frankly dirty would have been an upgrade I'm surprised there weren't roaches crawling up the walls. When I looked up the hotel it made it sound like it was close to downtown so I was assuming apparently incorrectly at the hotel would be decent and in a decent neighborhood however we were in what I would refer to as the ghetto most people would too as well I would assume. I can't give them anything lower than one star unfortunately so I gave them one stars on everything.

False advertised

Let's start with the staff, they were actually nice and courteous. The room reaked of cigarettes. The beds belonged in a dumpster. Door was filthy, electrical panel was loose, black mold in the bathroom. Other guests were loud. AC was filthy. RM 201. I emailed the health dept to file a claim. I would appreciate a refund for being misled into thinking this was a decent place. I'm not sure who thought it was a good idea to rent a room full of health and safety violations.

Disgusting

Walked into the hotel room there was cigarette burns all over the comforters the beds frame was made from 2x4. Floor was coming up and wholes in the flooring. The light switches look like they had not been cleaned in 10 years. Walls looked like a murder scene or dirt and idk what else. Room had a musky, wet smell. Didn’t even walk in to bathroom to check. Outside the hotel you have many people that asked for money and honestly, they look like they were on drugs. This place needs to be shut down! Would have taken pictures to put on here but didn’t want to stay in that room any longer the I did.

Staff and service was wonderful. Older building but charming and close to downtown Nash. The immediate neighborhood isn't too good, but that's not what I was there for -- as I said it's close to everything downtown and THAT is what I was there for. :) I'd stay at the Drake again for sure.

We booked a non smoking room, but when we arrived they told us that they don't have any non smoking rooms left. They wanted to put us in a smoking room,, but we couldn't stand the smell there. Therefore we decided to not stay here and look for another accomodation. The staff was very nice though and apologized for the mix-up.

The place is a literal dump. The staff is nice. Uber doesn’t want to pick you up here. They overcharged me $10. It was supposed to be $106. Then they said there is a $3 charge for paying with a credit card. So it should have been $110.53 after room tax and fee and the charge is for $120 and some change. I was embarrassed to stay at this dump.
