We chose Nick's place because we needed a place that allowed dogs but we still wanted to be close to Downtown and not loose a quality space. The space has a comfortable home feel and plenty of room to move around. We crate our dogs when we left the house. I felt like they were comfortable and any noise from outside would be a familiar sound. we were able to give them a nice walk in the neighborhood . we went to Downtown Nashville but i think the area near Nick's might have been a better choice. in the morning we ran over to the park with the Parthenon. it is that close. Nick was very responsive to any inquiries. He sent an email on the arrival morning with details about check in etc. He also went out of his way to help us out. we were very comfortable.
