We really enjoyed our stay in the apartment over Labor Day weekend.
The space is tastefully decorated, all essentials are provided to cook basic meals if you prefer not to try the great restaurants Nashville has to offer. The bed is heavenly and I wish I could have taken it home! We very much appreciated Starbucks Keurig cups and various snacks. During our last night someone in the neighborhood (not in the apartments) had a party and it was a little noisy. The white noise machine works very well if you need it. There is construction in the area which didn't bother us, but could be an issue on a weekday. The host also reminded us to lock our car which should be common sense. We felt safe being out at night and took advantage of the nice common outside area to people watch and enjoy the morning. Other guests spent their evening outside and there are even cornhole boards set up.
The Well Koinonia is a wonderful coffeehouse very close by and their Sweet Potato Brunch Bowl as well as their Banana Walnut Muffin is delicious. In the other direction there is a little hole-in-the-wall coffee place called Osa that has the best almond croissant we had in the United States. They roast their own coffee on-site and specialize in light and medium roasts.
The Gulch and all the cool places by Vanderbilt University are in walking distance if you don't mind a few blocks. For downtown it may be stretch and better to Uber, Lyft or get scooters.
We hope to stay with Christy again for our next visit in Nashville. It's so much cooler and beats the outrageous hotel prices!
