Rhonda
There was nothing to like but the price! They have bed bugs in rooms 108 and 111 for sure! They snarl about clean towels and toilet paper. Horrible place and does not belong in Nashville. I was shocked that Expedia even would rent from such a place!! I would recommend Hotel Nashville!
Marvin
We pulled in, turned around and left. Place looked rundown and deserted. No cars in the lot...none....in a tourist hotspot .Thats a bad sign.
Got a room at another place.
Did not mention the name to the other establishment..just told them we had a reservation at another place and what our impression was upon seeing it. They said..and I quote\" yeah, Salt Creek is empty for a reason\".
Expedia...you need to disassociate yourselves from Salt Creek Inn.

The outside and the parking lot is going through a renovation so it looks rough but the room was very clean and comfortable.
The location is great so don’t get turned off by the look of the outside.

Jeffrey
I like that the bed was comfortable and it was close to everything. The staff was pleasant when checking in and out. The outside was rough, looks like possibly remodeling, a toilet was outside in front of a room. The inside was outdated, painted chipped off the walls not outlets, the one we could use sparked when you plugged something into it. The TV kept freezing up during the program. It definitely needs to be updated badly. We only stayed one night but the price was okay just to sleep for the night. It was a very quiet place.
Terry
The motel is being remodeled. Our room was freshly painted and smelled good. The far side of the parking lot had some weeds growing through the cracks. If in the area in the future we will stay again.
Douglas
The room was very clean and the staff was outgoing and pleasant!
Timothy
Toilet did not function properly.
Cynthia
Great price Close to everything and quite area. Yes it's not the Hilton but rooms clean nice bed and shower. Room has fridge microwave and lots space.
Autumn
My husband and I stayed the weekend to get out of the hustle and bustle of every day life. Our hotel stay was exactly what we wanted and needed. Very pleasant and peaceful. Just a trot from downtown and located behind us was a dollar store. We will definitely be back in the future.
Lauren
Hotel is very dated which we knew, but it looks like they are going to be renovating soon. It was within walking distance to the concert venue and priced reasonably so we booked it. Room was okay, there was dust on the nightstand upon entering and the carpet is just old and dirty looking. There are no plugs on either side of the bed which is inconvenient. No iron or ironing board so if you need to iron clothes before a concert or whatever, you’re out of luck. Also no blow dryer so make sure to bring your own if you are going to wash your hair. The shower didn’t work properly so water filled the tub as you showered. The bed was comfortable though so that’s a plus. It was okay for the short time we were there, but I wouldn’t stay there for a longer trip.
Andrew
Older hotel but they are renovating. Room was very clean and the price was great. Overall a great stay.
RUTH
Good place to stay within walking distance of show area.
Place seems to be being and really needs some updating.
Beds comfortable.

It is a nice stay for the price however it is dated no coffee maker in room or in lobby. It is clean but it does need a good remodel.
Scott
Older style facility with clean, updated rooms. Friendly, responsive staff.

Room was clean, plenty of parking and friendly staff
Katelynn
Sink did not work, had to brush my teeth in the bath tub. Shower head sprayed water everywhere. Sheets smelled dirty.
Cathy
The property seemed safe, just a bit run down and could use a good scrubbing. The room was immaculate. Bed was comfortable. Could use a chair in there though. I would stay again if I had to be in the area. There were people with pets staying there, so it's obviously pet friendly. It was expensive for what it was. It advertised breakfast, but all they had was a pot of coffee. Thankfully McDonalds was next door.
Grazina
We would probably give it about a two star needs a lot of upgrade. Certainly was not worth $300 plus. The only positive is that's near Nashville town and also there's shopping right in in where the hotel where the hotel is
James
What a dump. Toilet was turned off when we arrived. It has a shower curtain over the window that offers zero privacy. 3 dead pillows on a bed made of wood. Not at all worth the cost. Doend the money and sleep outside on the grass. It is the usual slum lord style bs owned by foreigners. Absolutely disgusting and run down.
Tracey
Not real well maintained or up to date. Handy to grocery, McDonald's and dollar store. Short drive to park, shopping and dining.
Salena
Would not recommend this property to anyone
Howard

Randall
Easy check in and helpful staff.
Jeremy
It was good for the night and an excellent location to the concert venue. I will stay there again, the price for the location was wonderful. It was a one minute walk to the concert hall.
Kathy
The property was nice and clean for being so old. It could be updated and really nice if owner was willing to put some money into the place. We enjoyed it because you have more privacy in a motel like this than a big hotel!
linda
Location was good and the only place that would take dogs
Randall
This place is well worn but our room was nicely renovated.
Closest motel to Brown County Music Center.

Don't let the parking lot dissuade you, the lot is rough, but spacious. The outside of building is worn, inside is tidy. There is no elevator, so take the steps, or first floor room. The rooms are basic hotel retro; clean neat, hot water, good t.v., the king size bed was good too! If you are going to the concert venue, it's next store, 5 minute walk! This is not a mint on the pillow type place, but a great value for a 1-2 nighter. (Mc Donalds across the lot)
Keith
Great place to stay a night, and check out a show at the brown county music center.
jerry
nice staff
Brenda
For a budget, older property, it was very clean. Parking was safe.
Anna Mae
The room could use some fixing. The bathroom had holes where the wash rag hangs in the tub. Toilet paper holder was falling off. Toilet ran constantly. But the bed was comfortable and water was very hot
Charletta
Older hotel but was very clean and comfortable. Staff was very pleasant and knowledgeable. Easy access to everything in town. Would stay here again.
Chris
Room was clean even though very outdated. I would guess 1980’s furniture. No bugs. You have to judge it per what it is. This is a 1.5 star party motor motel. Don’t expect luxury, you’re not going to get it. Not really as bad as all the negative reviews though. Only real complaint is loud neighbors late at night yelling and banging doors. Very little sleep was had due to this but we didn’t complain because that is the type of place we were paying for. We had a good time.
James
Parking lot was not plowed and it was a week today since it last snowed.
Did not stay there got a room elsewhere looked like they were closed and this was at 4:30 in the afternoon.
Didn't check in.
Got a room elsewhere. I am there 3 or 4 times a year and I won't go back to the Salt Creek Inn.

The room was a bit outdated but it was clean, internet worked and toilet did flush which I was worried about after reading bad reviews. Close to the concert venue and close to fast food. Friendly staff.

. Stayed here for convenience for a Brown County Music Concert and price was great. Room was clean and staff was kind. Check in was easy. This will be the spot next time I come in town
Jennifer
Just the basics...there was 2 sheets of toilet paper left on the roll with no extra roll left. Make sure you take wipes. The bed mattress was from a roll away just sitting on top of a box spring. No chairs in room because they were sitting outside...smh...just awful.

Stacy
Room was clean, very little interact with staff. Checked in and did not have any other interaction with staff.
Angela
It was fair,had no soap of any kind in the room. 1 of the rooms had mold in it. Ours was clean. Fridge, microwave, but really would rather see a coffee maker. Perfect location to walk to the music center venue.
James
Mold in the bathroom, no other rooms to stay in. Need a refund. We have pictures
Theresa
Room was decent . No adminities but room was very clean . I may suggest full cutains and maybe somewhere to get coffee . Since no pot's in room. Its a great place if u just stay the night like for a concert . Seems the party crowd hung out there , But hey thats ok !
Matt
Very nice staff
Dorothy
Clean room, office staff was great
Matthew
Was unable to stay because I am in a wheelchair and I was told this was a handicap accessible room. I was lied to I want a refund. I’ll never recommend this place again.
Sean
Room was clean and affordable. Was close to the B.C. State Park and restaurants/shops. Would stay here again.
Lynn
The room was very clean and the staff extremely kind. I do feel that updates could be make to make it more appealing, but it was a great, and relaxing stay— thank you.
Samantha
Pretty run down but ya get what ya get when ya wait til the last minute
Mary
What vineyard? Cows only.
Lona Sue
The beds and bathroom was clean. The carpet was filthy and turned our socks black. There was to place to sit outside you room. We brought our hairdryer and there were insufficient, towels and wash cloths. Had to ask for more. Never cleaned out room in the 4 day , 3 night stay.
Will not stay there again.
Will not stay there again.
Gregory
Clean Room and quiet.
Shaun
I knew what I was getting into with a low rated hotel, but yeah...not great but not the worst. Room had several flaws and the water was shut off the morning after my first night so I couldn't shower or brush my teeth. Wifi didn't work, was never informed of the Wifi password until I walked down and asked. I recommend upgrades in several regards.
Chelsea
Room was okay, not all of the outlets work and would have been nice to have more outlets for charging ports.
Marybeth
For the price I was expecting more up date accommodations.
michael
Water was off in morning
Linda
We enjoyed our stay.
Mary
The fact we were able to book 2 rooms in peak weekendvOctober should tell you all you need to know. We desperately needed rooms at the time. The general condition of the site is run down however the rooms wete clean but very dated. The light in the bathrooms was just a hole in the ceiling. The manager was very accommodating and put our room next to our daughter and her family before they checked in which was nice. Its an ok place if you just need a pkace to crash for a night but I would not recommend spending a weekend there.
John C
Would not let us have a 1st floor room because they didn’t have the staff to clean any of the rooms. They do not have an elevator and my husband cannot walk stairs. The room did not have a remote for the TV and they didn’t have enough pillows. The fire alarm on the ceiling was broken and not secured in place.
Heather
The hotel is run down. People are longterm living in the downstairs rooms.The online pictures are not a true reflection of the property. We found another hotel nearby and stayed there. We returned the key. Never saw anyone there. Expedia is trying to get our money back. No wonder the property has a no refund policy.
Heidi
Affordable, convenient and close to downtown, perfect for a one night stay to visit Nashville
Jennifer
Don’t judge a book by its cover. The Salt Creek in has been around for awhile but our room was recently remodeled and everything was immaculately clean. The beds and bedding were so comfortable. Would definitely stay here again.
Trevor
Was perfect for what we were wanting , non expensive, quiet and felt safe
David
Very quiet place to stay.
David
Faucet handles bad sink and tub. Tub drain after shower took long time to drain. Would have been nice to have at least one chair in room. Unfortunately could not an opening window with screen for fresh air. A/C to have a constant fan mode like many do would have been nice. Convenient location only plus.
Ashley
It was ok, for the price we paid for two rooms, double beds. There was no water in the toilet. Had to flush first before it held water for a short time. The water in the morning for a shower was cold. Overall though it was ok, it was convenient to the area we were visiting in a short time frame. But next time will try a different place.
Julian

Rodney
Outdated and hot water in sink didn’t work. Woke up with lots of little bites.
Ulisa
We booked this stay for after a concert. Hotel was grossly run down parking lot was significantly damaged with large chunks of grass. We checked in at 1030 pm. We were the only car in the entire parking lot for the entire stay. Very sketchy. Would NOT recommend. Plus Expedia lusted the fee for 155 for the room. Later found hotel site lusted for 80.

Traveling for a concert and the location was excellent

It was an old style inn.
Erica
The hotel is old and outdated. It needs a lot of work.
Sarah
The room smelled terrible and there wasn’t any power in the room. When asked to cancel reservation manager said the room was fine and would not refund my money
Taunya
I won't stay there again or recommend it.
Eric
The first room we were given had mouse poop in the cabinet and between the mattress and box springs. The carpet was all wrinkled up, the smoke detector was missing from the ceiling, the toilet had a dirty ring in the bowl, and the furniture was stained and falling apart. We complained and were given a new room, which was slightly better because it didn’t have evidence of mice and it had a smoke detector. There was old junk in a shopping cart in the stairwell and the general appearance of the property was not good. Weeds were growing up everywhere and the grass really needed cut. We only ended up staying because they were the only hotel in town that was pet friendly and had available rooms. If it weren’t for that we would have packed up and left. I like to end on a positive note, so I will say the bed was pretty comfortable.
Marsha
There is nothing unique about this place, it was filthy and the bathroom and the bathroom curtains were moldy. The room itself was filthy and you can tell they are barely trying to clean the room, we will never stay there again!!!
Laura
Though the property was a little dated, the room was clean and the staff very friendly, would recommend for a quick getaway!
Wilma
It was run down. Very small. Every thing was in poor condition

You get what you pay for
The hotel was not at all what we expected. And the description stated within walking distance to some of the places we wanted to go and there was no way to actually walk there, which was the only reason I booked this hotel. We checked out once we saw the actual room and paid for a different hotel that we could actually walk to the places we wanted to go.
Ashley
The room was very dated, no WiFi, no coffee, there was a lamp attached to the ceiling. A patch of mismatched carpet on the door, holes in the door where someone has punched it. Under the sink was falling down. The room smelled so strongly of disinfectant.
We just needed a room to sleep before a race so it severed its purpose but definitely wouldn’t stay again.

Definitely not a fancy motel if that’s what you’re looking for. An older place that could use some updates. The gentleman at the check in desk was friendly and quick. If you are just looking for a place to sleep, it’s good. The beds were comfortable and it had all of the basics. Close to some local businesses.
