If you're looking for an alternative to noisy and crowded hotels, this is a great option. The house is located at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac on a quiet street, and you could hear a pin drop at night. While it's not in the heart of the action, it's close to major highways and a quick drive to downtown, plus there's a lot of retail within walking and/or driving distance (there's a Target very close by). If you've experienced the pandemonium of downtown Nashville, you definitely appreciate coming back to this quiet, rustic retreat.

The room essentially is a studio apartment, with a full kitchen (including dishwasher), a bed, a bathroom and a living area that faces the private backyard. Charli provided all the little touches that you would expect from a well-run B&B -- extra toothbrush, Brita water pitcher, fully stocked coffeemaker, fresh towels, shampoo and soap, a few snacks in the kitchen, etc. She was responsive to questions via text but wasn't intrusive or all up in my business, which was great. The only thing I missed was having a TV, although for some people that's probably not an issue. The wi-fi was good, so I was able to stream some stuff via my laptop.

Overall it was a good experience and I would recommend this place to anyone traveling to Nashville who wants to avoid the craziness of a downtown hotel.
