This place is awesome. We've stayed here a couple of times and it is always clean, quiet, and SO COMFORTABLE. The beds are awesome. Good water pressure. We're typically in town for events at Basement East so the location is prime. We love The Russell and book for almost every trip to Nashville.

Great room, East Nashville location, comfy bed

Super cool converted church - great East Nashville location. Comfy bed and great hot shower. No checkin desk or staff per se on site but everything super easy and user friendly. Remote check in - key codes emailed for entry. Felt very safe. Very clean. Hope to stay again.

Place was very cool. But bookings a sky light room, you expecte the sky light to look out side like the rest. Not the interior ceiling of the church.

The room was clean it had snacks and water bottles which I appreciate. The neighborhood was low key and had a couple of bars and restaurants around. The rooms also had robes which is a nice touch. Tea and coffee are available downstairs and the hallway had a water station and microwave available. Most things you need for a pleasant stay are available. The only limitations are that parking hours are limited due to residential permits and rooms are not cleaned daily. It was odd not having any staff onsite, but if you are used to staying at air bnbs you probably won't mind. It is an interesting building with nice decor. Guests weren't loud so I didn't experience issues with noise. It would be nice if there were a hot tub, but you can't have everything.

Great Place away from the Zoo

Everything worked--the key code, the dumbwaiter (for the luggage). Room was as advertised with all needed service & equipment. East Nashville neighborhood is much less frenzied than Broadway, which is only a $10 Uber ride.
