This is a great base to have to visit the Nashville area. We did the hop on hop off bus a couple days after arriving because it was rainy. Instead we had a car a drove around and visited on our own. Be sure to go down Broadway to see all the fun craziness on a week-end. Nice to drive-thru but we didn't stay-it was too loud for us and busy. However, we also drove out to Clarksville and Murfreesboro and Franklin which were all within driving distance. For needed groceries, there are a couple of Kroger's nearby. Great place and Robyn responds very quickly to any questions. A great hostess.
