To experience a city for the first time, it's important to have a comfortable home base. Christy's Cozy East Nashville Apt. B was just that; a perfect place to call home while we explored an inspiring city.

Short Story: A great Airbnb experience.

Long Story: Located in East Nashville, this little duplex unit has absolutely everything you might need. My wife and I, in town to celebrate our 5th anniversary, commented many times on how well outfitted this one bed, one bath, living room + kitchen unit was. Small, yes, but perfectly so. The pictures are true to life, but there are plenty of hidden details that are missed: in unit laundry, cable + movie access, the plates of my wife's childhood (randomly awesome), great tea & coffee, popcorn, a well detailed binder of Nashville & the immediate area, AC; the list goes on. At times it was almost too comfortable to leave.

But it's Nashville, you've got to seek out and adventure. East Nashville is a starting point worth it's tourism weight. During our three days there we biked throughout the East side while exploring coffee shops, vintage haunts, izakaya joints, consistent live music, and expansive parks. We found the neighborhood charming and spent the majority of our time in Nashville there.

When you do want to head across the river, $6-10 and the Lyft app will get you there. Nashville is a geographically small city and is easy to traverse, no matter where you're resting your head.

As for our host, Christy was as charming as Apt B. Easy to converse with, check in was simple and during the preamble of coordination she offered her recommendations on many neighborhood hot spots and biking options. All of which were spot on. Extra bonus points for the celebratory note and flowers we found upon arrival. All the little things add up to the big things, that's the mark of a good host. It's also representative of Christy and her cozy little apt. B.

Unit, Location, City, Host: I give it all 5 stars.
