The property was super cool and stayed on theme in every detail. The staff was super friendly and attentive! Our room itself was really really dark and to get any extra lighting you had to turn on the party switch. It would've been great to have an extra lamp or something. The drain in the tub was also not very good so any time you showered you were standing in a good amount of water. I was a little bummed about the no TV in the room, but I understand staying on theme.

The Dive Motel is definitely a very cool designed motel. The staff was great, Will the bartender was a lot of fun. The rooms are pretty awesome from a vintage design perspective. One of my favorite things is the disco ball in every room!! The only issues I had were that some of the blinds slates were broken, so people could have peeked into my room if they wanted to. I jammed socks in the gaps at night. The beds are VERY soft, so if you like a firmer mattress, be ready for some discomfort. Also, several of the lamps and/or light switches didn’t work properly, so I had to unplug them at night and back in later.

The property was nice - cool, clean, organized and had all supplies needed for a stay!
The con is that the area where it is located - there is no much around and there is limited parking space.
I read about noise (as there is a nice bar there!!), but it ended up at 10pm - so no issues at all :)
Wish I had time to enjoy the pool :)

Great but Priorite Guests

The stay was good, we’ve been a few times now and we always have a great time. From the pool to the staff and the bartenders and the vibe it’s always a great time. My only point of dissatisfaction was the parking, the lot is already tiny and I really think some spots should be saved for guests. We had to park a block down at the dry cleaners and they have a huge sign that says customer parking only. The lady at the front desk advised we park at the schoool next door but they had an event going on and so the dry cleaners was our best bet. I feel they need to prioritize guests over people stopping by just for a swim. Might not stay here again just to avoid any inconvenience.

Nashville Gem!!

This is my third stay at the dive motel- every time has been a pleasure. The rooms are funky (retro! And very clean) and it’s really nice to have a little bar on site to grab a drink. Overall the vibes are excellent. The lobby is very helpful and responsive to texts and we had every thing we needed. Shout out to the excellent customer service- We had to make a last minute change and they were incredibly kind and accommodating.
Last thing I wanna mention is that this place is different in the summer months- pool is open to the public during the day. Something I wasn’t aware of during booking, so keep it in mind- summer months are gonna be more of a pool party and fall/winter is definitely more private and lowkey.
In any case, this place is a gem. We’ll definitely be back.

This is a solid little place. 10/10 vibes. The in-room stations are great… never thought I’d hear a track from a James Marcel Stinson side project in a hotel. Docking a point from the room because the mini split only goes down to 68 and I like to keep the temp at “Ice Planet Hoth” levels while I sleep.

The staff is really friendly and helpful. The hotel itself has some issues. When I first checked in, I noticed the room had a bad odor to it. I went to the front desk and asked if they had any other open rooms and was told \"Is it a musty smell? yeah they all have that\"... yuck. True, the second room also smelled. The room(s) I was given were also not the room I intended to book (the pink mural room) and the furniture is all really old/thrift store looking and there is a lot of dirt and debris in the corners. The bathroom is just paint on top of old tiles so it's chipping in a lot of places. There were some spiders. BUT, the biggest issue was the fact that loud music starts at 8 AM and plays at the pool all day long. It's impossible to sleep in or relax in the afternoon. I get it that it's fun at the pool... but what about the guests? Other plus was that parking was free, but I won't be returning.

Like many things, a stay at The Dive Motel has its pros and cons.
The Pros: killer aesthetic, fun vibe, comfy beds, not far from downtown, and tickets upon check in for free canned drinks at their bar, just for staying at the motel.
The Cons: the structure was built in 1956(?) so the pipes are old and there is little to no sound proofing/insulation. We travel with a white noise sound machine and still heard conversations of people walking by our room early in the morning. Also, on-site parking is very limited and if you arrive on the weekend there may not be on-site parking (meaning that you have to park at the neighboring school). While The Dive has security cameras in their small parking lot, the school may or may not be aware that motel guests park on their property on the weekends. Even in The Dive’s small parking lot they have multiple signs stating they are not responsible for break-ins or stolen items. When I asked the girl at check in she told me “break-ins don’t happen *that* often”. More than once constitutes a problem in my eyes but our vehicle was unscathed after a night at The Dive.
The motel is not in the safest part of town, but it wasn’t a bad Uber ride to and from The Dive and Downtown Nashville.
The light switch to control the in-room music also controlled the disco ball, so if you wanted to enjoy their radio, you had to have the disco ball spinning. Not a big con but a minor inconvenience.

Loved our stay!!

So fun! Employees were very helpful. Loved that they kept you informed of everything through text. Rooms were very clean. Mattress was comfortable but the bed was a little saggy in the middle. The only other complaint is that I wish there was a full length mirror on the back of the bathroom door. Loved the bar. Too cold to swim but it looked like fun! The music and the disco ball were fun in the room. Off the beaten path and the area isn’t the greatest, but we never felt unsafe. No tv which was fine with us. Who’s going to watch tv in Nashville anyway?! We loved it and will definitely be back! Would like to try one of the penthouses next time!

Overall it was a great place to stay without kids. The room was clean and fun with the disco ball/party switch. My wife and I are both old enough to remember seeing motels like this as kids and we especially got a good laugh from the bathroom decor. Reminded us both of visiting our grandparents back in the 80's.

Was a little confusing at first as the front desk is inside the restaurant but just took a few minutes to figure all that out.

The weather was cold during our stay so we didn't go anywhere near the pool but imagine relaxing there would have been great on a warmer day.

Our only real criticism, and it's not something the Dive can really do anything about, is the area around it. There is nothing within walking distance so any food required a drive. Not a big deal but just something to think about if you are getting there late and hungry.

The Dive Motel was absolutely fantastic. Stepping back in time with their curated 70s style rooms, complete with disco ball and dive radio. Not having a TV made us spend time in the moment together which is hard to come by these days. The staff was friendly and tentative to our needs. I loved their text system if we needed anything and when they were closing up each night. Comedy night was an absolute hit! It was within 10 mins of broadway, which made it very easy. My husband and I would definitely stay here again.

If you are looking for a seedy, nostalgic, classic motel you see in those 1970's movies, this is your place! It's decked out in wood paneled walls, pink bathroom and furniture from that era - and includes a Disco ball in each room. It was cool that they had swanky music playing in the room when we arrived. Bed was comfortable. That's where the excitement ends! The rooms are quite small compared to the pics on the website. There is VERY LITTLE lighting in the room. After dark you need a flashlight just to look in your suitcase. Cement floors. No place to sit your items. No amenities in the room such as a coffee pot or microwave -- OH -- but they make sure you have a tray full of condoms, lubricant gel and a vibrator for purchase right at your bedside! This is a one nighter motel, at best, only for the experience with the decor.

It was a great atmosphere! We will be back. There was no clothing storage so we had to put our clothes on the ground. Otherwise, great place and not far from downtown.

A fun eclectic boutique hotel. The throwback 70s decor in our room was fantastic. All the staff was friendly and welcoming.

The Dive's 70's disco theme makes for an unforgettable stay. Convenient location a short drive from downtown and many music venues. Room comes fully stocked with a mini bar, snacks and toiletries available for purchase. Will definitely be back in the summer.

We had a great 2 night stay. The rooms are so fun and the staff was great. We were able to enjoy the last pool party of the season. The music was amazing and we met a lot of new people from all over. Will definitely hit the motel up again next time we’re in town.

I loved this hotel and it's quirky style. The rooms looked great and we were made to feel comfortable with comfy bed and great mini bar. Staff were really helpful, particularly the night staff gent who helped me back to my room after a night on the town. Great place, loved it!

I was part of a group of 6 staying for a long weekend. We purposely picked this motel for the aesthic. We arrived Thursday just ahead of Hurricane Helena. Brandy Lynn and the rest of the staff were amazing. They made sure we had everything we needed and were happy to provide recommendations for places to eat. The motel bar had comedians on Thursday and swing dance lessons with a live band on Friday night, which was a fun surprise. The rooms were comfortable and clean. We were aware there were no TVs in the room when we booked and we were good with that. We did not plan on spending much time in our rooms anyway. With the storm rolling through we did spend more time than anticipated at the motel but we made the best of it and played cards in the common areas. I would recommend if you are looking for something other than your normal boring hotels.

The property itself is spectacular, exactly as advertised, and if you get the chance to be there for \"swing night\" it is a 'do not miss' experience. Unfortunately, I was there during a tropical storm, so I did not get to use the pool at all, but it looked like great fun. There is almost nothing immediately near the property (I walked a couple miles in each direction, there are not even sidewalks) so be sure you are comfortable taking transportation to activities.

Very unique and fun stay. Really enjoyed my room and if I was twenty years younger, would have enjoyed the pool as well. Also really liked the bar and the staff were super awesome. If you want something more then just a place to rest your head, this is a great place to stay.

This place was like stepping into the grooviest time capsule ever. Because it is a period piece it will have certain natural limitations… Sound insulation for instance, but it is absolutely worth a visit. Excellent communication from the staff who are lovely people. I will be back.

Really fun spot to stay and hangout! The property has been renovated, so it's 'old'. The pool was great, the rooms are lovely, the beds are very comfortable, and the staff was really accommodating. My group is planning to come back next year.

The Dive has a fun aesthetic; we loved the party switch and 70s vibes. There is a comedy show on Thursday night in the bar; and we were surprised to even get a token for a free drink.
The lights in the room were quite dim, and we had some issues with condensation from the mini fridge leaving some puddles on the floor. The blinds were also broken and we had to put socks in them so people couldn’t see in.
Overall a super fun place to stay, we had a great time and the vibes were exactly as expected!

If you are in the Nashville area and do not stay here at least once you are doing yourself an injustice. I stay all over and this is the quirkiest and cleanest place in the area. I have stayed in luxe trendy hotels downtown. If you are looking at Virgin or the Moxy check these guys out first. Cannot wait to come back. Staff is incredibly friendly. Cannot say enough good things.

You should review the events calendar on the property website before booking your stay. We were not able to use the pool because it was so crowded. That’s our fault for not checking, but also a helpful tip for others.

Cute but definitely VINTAGE. Room smelled like dog and/or frat party. Pool was far too busy from day visitors (non-guests) to use on arrival and closed too early, extremely noisy. One hour pool time reserved for guests 9-10am was taken up by water aerobics class.
