If you are looking for a quick visit to Nashville, need to accommodate a ton of people, and need a base - then this is property for you and I would venture to say it’s already a 5 star property.
The place is tastefully decorated, has an awesome outdoor balcony, easy parking, a park nearby, all the quick food type places, Starbucks, 7-11 within walking distance, tons and tons of endless beds & cots, and the garage is especially cool and fun as a converted game room with a fully loaded tv, pool table, and has great vibe & decor.
The location is excellent as it’s super quick to get to downtown, easy to hop over to Trace Natchez Parkway, & a simple drive to Franklin, TN & the OpryMill Mall, Outlets & Grand Old Opry.
The neighborhood seems like a gentrified mix of older smaller houses & super modern new complexes.
This particular double row of houses are really well lit/ we could park right in front and felt totally safe.
There are cots folded up literally everywhere, even in the kitchen pantry / so you if you are having some big reunion or something- this is your place. Food is easily delivered too.
For a longer stay, online school/work from home, cooking etc - this property can easily become a 5 star property with a few tweaks.
The kitchen was missing some essential items and supplies (cleaning products, broom, dishrack, etc ) so for anyone staying more than a day or two it require more functionality. However by the time I left packages had already started to arrive from Chris.
The place seemed clean when I walked in but with any deeper inspection it was clear the cleaning crew only took care of the first layer and there were several things that absolutely should have been inspected & addressed before new guests arrived. People should treat an Airbnb with respect and a cleaning crew should ensure that things sparkle and not leave dirty cleaning items and hair/wrappers around. I believe and hope that this was a one- off and that this situation will be rectified for all future guests.
If the place is spotless for future guest and the kitchen gets a few more supplies that make it completely functional for people living there/cooking over days - it will also be a perfect property well located and accommodating of lots of people.
One thing to mention beyond the owner’s control is although there are messages everywhere about “no parties” - there were certainly a few other houses that seemed to ignore the noise ordinance. They had me awake until the middle of the night with complete disregard for their neighbors on multiple nights from their balconies and at street level. Please note this is ONLY in the back of the house it was an issue - the front of the house that includes the master bedroom was NOT affected by the loud people on the balconies behind this property. No big deal for a quick visit but again a consideration for a longer term guest looking to work from home and needing sleep. I’m hoping too this was a one-off and perhaps another Airbnb property or something- certainly it’s no fault of Chris, just unfortunate circumstance on my visit.
Again the location can’t be beat to access lots of different places, the vibe is super modern, the A/C, heater is Uber quiet you can’t hear a thing, lots of beds (there are two beds even in the Master) a fun game room, and having the outdoor balcony is such a bonus for morning coffee!
This place can be 5 star soon easily!
