Excellent, quiet location next to the river downtown. Yes, you might here a train from time to time but nothing annoying. We walked to three events at the Symphony, Ryman and Bridgestone. It was just under a mile but all well lit along city streets and the walkway along the river. Even if you parked downtown you would end up walking 4-5 blocks so we simply chose. to walk from the condo and enjoyed it. The condo was in a quiet area with numerous newer apartment and condo buildings. I would recommend this condo and I would use it again if I return to Nashville.
