You're probably reading this to decide if to stay with James - we did and we would again in a snap! James is casual, warm and 'as advertised'. We felt that his house was our home away from home - even doing a mini tv-marathon one rainy afternoon. The neighborhood gave us a taste of the real Nashville where people live and love.

Some great restaurants to enjoy are a short walk from the house (Mas Tacos & Marche for us!). And, driving into downtown takes all of 10 minutes - I call that a great location. [the YMCA 5 minutes away allowed us to keep our usual fitness and was another view on the people of Nashville]

Check out James' visitor 'coffee cabinet' - it includes white hot chocolate, fair-trade coffee and more things that are a great way to start the day. And, a couple days we made our breakfast at home... great feature when we're away for a week!

Ok, this fan is signing off with these positive things to say about James Manning!
