In evacuating from hurricane Irma, our second stop was the Residence Inn Marriott in Nashville SE in Murfreesboro, Tennessee with the first at Towneplace Suites Marriott in Auburn, Alabama! We were not planning on coming here because we were going to visit my Mom in Mississippi but she got sick right before we arrived and then we wound up with nowhere to stay! We settled on Nashville because this looked like the most fun nearby to Auburn and a good distance from the hurricane!

Would you like to take a tour with me of the hotel because I enjoy seeing posts like this my friends make such as @gmichelbkk frequently makes and @sweetsssj is best known for? This is also the hotel where I hosted my second Steem meetup after hosting the first Steem meetup in Florida a month earlier. No one showed up for the second meetup which is okay because I just worked on my Macbook Pro and waited along with moving my bags between rooms!

Here is the second or master bathroom!

What I like most and least about this bathroom is the shower. The design lets all the air just flow out. While this seems like a cute idea to eliminate curtains or doors, it also ruins the best part about the shower with enjoying it being warm and taking a relaxing shower in the hot water. With the open door, all the hot air flows out.

Meanwhile, the drain is awesome making the shower about average!

Awesome Jerry! Thank you for sharing your adventure here on Steemit!

Thank you Joe for continuing to comment on each post!

That's a place I'd like to stay!

Michel I appreciate you motivating me to try posts like this!

Wish I could have left town from Irma, thank GOD we were spared, but we were here in Tampa ready to do what we could to keep people safe.
Its great to get away, hotel room looks really comfortable.
Have a great journey and a safe trip.

Amen thank you for wishing us a safe trip !

That's quite the review for a Residence Inn.

You should become a professional travel blogger. @sweetsssj has got nothing on you!

I appreciate your kind feedback because she has been an inspiration to me to step out of the box of Cryptocurrency posts!

The fountain and pool are gorgeous, as is the lobby - it is quite spacious, isn't it, with all the seating! The high ceilings are a nice touch, as is the light coloring in the lobby area.

As to the suite, it's wonderful; I've stayed at a Residence Inn for a special vacation at DISNEY .. and yours is even nicer. Its kitchen is decent enough, with a range & a place to sit for breakfast.

Sweet that your suite included a shower for yr Daughter! (I bet she had a good time, didn't she? )

*NOTE: The way you included minute details - like when u said "reading lights beside the bed"... was similar to how I write about my travels/lodging

So I appreciated your #writing ..is what I am hinting at.

Do they offer a free Breakfast in the Lobby?
Liked the various coffee urns I saw - means the brew is on, in many #flavors!

P.S. The outdoor grounds are as beautiful as the inside

That's an awesome picture with your two dogs :)

They appreciate you noticing!

There will be more bungholes after me!

Wooow...gorgeous hotel and amazing shots...your doggies are very cute...hug them for me😊💕

I had no idea you were in the hurricane's path.

My condolences.

We came through good it seems thank you for thinking of us now!
