John's place was absolutely perfect. I went in with high expectations since his reviews are so great, and my expectations were quickly surpassed. The apartment itself is extremely well kept, intricate, and cozy. John provides coffee, tea, snacks, and just about anything else you could possibly need when looking for a temporary home away from home. The outdoor balcony provided a little oasis to enjoy your coffee in the AM and beer in the PM!
We LOVED the location as well. John's place is an easy walk to the expansive Shelby Park and Shelby Bottoms Nature Trails - we highly recommend exploring this park. His place is down the street from a coffee/breakfast shop that is delicious and quick with great outdoor eating area. There are a lot of trendy bars and restaurants in East Nashville to explore, either a short walk (less than a mile) or super short car ride away. The drive downtown was only 8 minutes as well - you can really get anywhere you want in under 15 minutes from this location.
We couldn't have asked for a better experience. Thank you SO MUCH, John!
