Whether you're here for a game or graduation, be sure to book a room on the back side of the hotel, where the stadium's grass and goal posts come into view.

"An "informed" staff and a "relaxed atmosphere" "impress" at this "lovely" on-campus "charmer" that's next to the Vanderbilt football stadium."
Lonely Planet
"Visitors to Vanderbilt University pack into this bustling chain hotel, in a prime location in Nashville's West End."

Be sure to reserve rooms well in advance around Vandy graduation and on football weekends, as this friendly place fills up early.

"If you're an adventure seeker who's not afraid to bed down in a sketchy part of town, go for it. If not, there's no harm in stopping by the lobby for a quick look-see."
