We got a feel for life in East Nashville during our four wonderful days staying at "Lily pad." The neighborhood was quiet and welcoming (people passing by actually said "hi" on occasion), full of pretty renovated cottages/bungalows and cool modern construction, enticing corner shops, restaurants and music venues. It was also quick and easy to get downtown and to other neighborhoods with our rental car. The pad itself was cozy and lovely - two comfortable bedrooms (with good mattresses, which my back appreciated!) and a small attractive living room that became a makeshift bedroom at night (with a fold out couch and air mattress). We also figured out how to watch The Super Bowl on the living room TV! The kitchen and little eating nook were well-equipped, with appealing rustic industrial chic decor like the rest of the house (exposed brick, wood, retro metal fixtures/hardware etc.). The bathroom was roomy and attractive - with two doors (one to each bedroom). Six of us sharing one bathroom (which contained the one toilet and shower) was fine for us -- just involved cooperation and communication. In warmer weather, there's more space in the backyard, which has a patio with furniture and fire pit. We also appreciated the goodies Andrea left for us (coffee, chocolate, a few snacks) and the handmade guide to the neighborhood with suggestions of places to go/eat etc as well as other guidebooks and magazines about Nashville. Thanks for a great stay (and perfect place to celebrate my husband's 60th with our "kids.")
