Rick was extremely accommodating and his place was everything I thought it would be. My friends were staying at a trendy hotel not far away from Rick's place and paid upwards of $175 per night. I had them over for drinks one night and they were amazed at how nice my room was and how much less I payed than they did. We all agreed to book an Airbnb reservation together the next time we met up.

Rick's suite was quite a bit bigger than their hotel room, had a great bed + couch setup, a better TV/channel selection, and the wetbar had glassware and other dishes you wouldn't find in a hotel unless you paid for a top floor suite. There was a little ice in the fridge, and a big warm blanket in the closet. All this was nice, but my favorite part about this place were these 3 big single hung windows that looked out into the street and the porch in front of the house. Long red drapes hang in front of them, but pulling them back revealed the morning and afternoon sunlight.

An easy 5-7 minute drive from downtown, Rick's place had plenty of free parking on the street in a quiet Southern-style neighborhood. If you and a partner are traveling to Nashville, this place is an easy choice over a high-priced hotel. My only regret was that I didn't stay a few more days.
