The room had faint smell of urine. The seating in between the queen beds had stains. The shower floor could have been cleaner. The bed was really comfortable.

Gaylord Opryland Resort & Convention Center
Great atrium garden views from the 3rd floor! We stayed in the Cascades section and slept with our balcony door open to fall asleep to the sound of the water. It was absolutely fantastic! Even though it’s quite busy, the waterfall drowns out the other noise. Can’t wait to come back.
