Pros:
+ Dani's home is a beautiful new construction (built 2020). Everything is fresh and new!
+ It is inspiring to live in a place as beautiful as this. There is art and subtle fragrance everywhere. If Dani wasn't a product manager, she would be an amazing interior designer.
+ There are several thoughtful touches. There was even a guitar and ukelele in the cupboard (it *is* the music city).
+ Dani is very friendly. We had several candid and nice conversations. We even watched The Matrix Resurrections together.
+ The location is very close to Broadway (7 mins by car). Park at Union St and 2nd (under the courthouse). Thank me later.
+ The neighborhood is getting gentrified and there are several very delicious places to eat close by.
+ Cowboy is a beautiful and friendly kitty cat.
Even though I am listing these cons in the interest of transparency, most of them are really nitpicks. The pros far faar faaar outweigh the cons and I hope most of them will be easily remedied:
- This was specially important to me, but there is no dedicated workspace (despite it being listed in the amenities). There is only a dining table in the shared kitchen / living room.
- The closet was mostly full with equipment and paintings. I had to play tetris to fit my things in there.
- The bed slides around on the floor. If you lean up against the headboard, it slides forward.
- The shower is on the slower side.
- Dani hosted a small party on one of the days I was there and there was the smell of weed.
- There is a small window in the room which doesn't have a curtain and lets in a lot of light in the morning. You should get a sleeping mask if that bothers you.
- Dani had to take meetings in the morning and her voice carried into the room quite easily. I would recommend ear plugs if you like sleeping in.
