We read that the motel offers newly renovated, our room definitely wasn't, old dirty carpet, old mattress/bed and bathroom. We asked for a non-smoking room, the sign on the door did so indicate, however the room smelled like people smoked a lot in it. We wouldn't recommend thus hostel.

My husband & I were in town for a concert & basically needed a place to sleep. I realize we were very lucky to book a room on the inside by the pool & close to the office. He booked the room online & I read the reviews afterward. I have a nice car & I was so worried it... More

DO NOT STAY HERE!!!! Our room was dirty and had BED BUGS and when I asked the manager for a refund he refused saying he couldn't see any bedbugs in the room, even though I was covered in bites! Terrible service.

I had hoped this place was a walk in the past like it advertises itself to be. WRONG!!Our room was FILTHY and the constant flow of drug dealers and hookers makes for a great COPS Show. BUT this place is NOT for families and is FAR from safe. When we left to find another hotel, we spole with a Nashville... More

This motel is awesome. For $65, you can upgrade to the jacuzzi suite, which is disappointingly clean and devoid of anything gross or seedy. It's in its own little building with a dedicated parking spot. It's very spacious and has a quaint little bed. We had hoped that all the reviews would come through and this place would be scary...

I stayed at this hotel because Sheryl crow and other stars supposedly stayed here. One thing I can be sure of is they didn't stay in a room like ours. The staff was friendly but the room stunk and looked old like it hadn't been cleaned in ages. I slept on top of the bed in my clothes and didn't... More

I really want wanted to like the Drake. REALLY wanted to. It's got rock 'n' roll history, ambiance, they even have an awesome car service for those of us who don't want to drink and drive, or depend on cabs all night. I can deal with the folks who live on-site, as long as they don't bother me (and they... More

We are an AUSTRALIAN family who spent 6 weeks holidaying in the US, this wasn't our first time in America and we thought we'd seen everything, stayed in the worst hotels and had weird and wacky experiences...but there just isn't the words to describe the Drake.
