Nashville advice?

[walton66]

Okay my Spring trip is finalized but I need some advice. I'll do a slab blast to get from the Florida Keys to Dallas for Mother's Day and hang out with old friends there for a few days followed by a several days meandering the twisties in Northern Arkansas. It's been a long while since I've been up there and am looking forward to riding the area again. Then I'll ride across TN to NC, spending several days there before heading down through GA to home.

 

Now the advice; I've got to get across TN to get to NC. I could blast across to Knoxville but since I've never been to Nashville, I thought I could instead spend the night there. I'm not a big city rated individual so where should I stay, where should I avoid.

 

Thanks,
