Marcelo's home was a great spot to stay. It is quiet and away from the nightlife, yet close enough to go enjoy it. The neighborhood may seem sketchy, but it is actually a great spot. On the other side of Rosa Parks blvd may be some section 8 housing, but really we had ZERO issues with the location. The road directly in front of the house is an active route it seems, so there were no shenanigans going on. We were within walking distance to a Kroger, Rite Aid and even the Nashville Farmer's Market. Uber to downtown costs roughly $5-7 if it's not a busy day/night. We were there during the SEC tournament, so the night time Uber was $15-20. We stayed for a girls weekend and the house was perfect for five of us. It was clean and well decorated. I was surprised it was equipped with definite necessities. Thank goodness for the coffee pot! Also - a good breakfast spot is only four blocks away, called Big Al's. Def recommend that as well. We hope to stay with Marcelo again!
