Richard has been an excellent host. His house is clean, has the essentials you'll need for a short stay, and VERY conveniently located--walking distance to Vandy, restaurants, bars; and a short commute from downtown. Having the entire second floor to ourselves, and hence the privacy, was really nice, and we enjoyed having brief interactions with him when we see him around the house as we go in and out. Without any reservations, I recommend staying at his place and will certainly do it again the next time we're in Nashville.
