My husband and I visited Nashville for a Spring getaway. On our way home, we got 40 miles out of Nashville and we both wanted to turn around and go straight back to the Boscobel bungalow. The apartment is light and cheery. The integrity of the original Craftsman style architecture is intact, but it is also decorated with a warm, modern aesthetics and a keen eye for design. Everything is immaculate and clean. The bed is terrifically comfortable. There is plenty of closet space, living space, and room to relax. The location is ideal for our visits to Nashville, because we want to be in an East Nashville neighborhood with very easy access to the park land around Shelby Bottoms (great for walks, runs, and biking), as well as a nice stroll or very short drive to near-by cafes (The Post for a neighborhood staple, or Barista Parlor for the insufferably hip), bars (we like Bar Luca), restaurants (try Lockeland Table) and shopping (check out Design Lab on the weekends). Mitch and Donna provide an abundance of amenities including wifi, t.v.s in both the living room and the bedroom, snacks, chocolate, coffee, a bottle of wine, soft towels, and a very clear guidebook to help you get familiar with the facilities and the neighborhood. There is a coffee maker, microwave and fridge. The parking is hassle-free, right in front of the house. The check-in and check-out procedures are also simple, and worry free.

We loved having an opportunity to meet and chat with our hosts, who live on the premises. We can't wait to go back now that we have a home away from home in East Nashville.

For those of you who are into this sort of thing--there are two homes on Boscobel St. that are featured locations in the TV show, Nashville. Not surprisingly, it's not uncommon to find yourself sitting next to one of the actors, or other local celebrities if you go out for breakfast at the Sky Blue Cafe. Have a great time!
