Amazing! Unit was EXACTLY as advertised. Pictures matched exactly. Check in was a breeze, unit was comfortable and spacious. Any question you could think of about the unit is helpfully answered by notes left all over the unit describing in great detail how to use things, where to leave things, what to do if something happens, etc. Local emergency numbers are posted, his short-term rental license is posted, and he even has a binder on the living room table full of the house rules and suggestions as to where to go for partying, shopping, shows, eateries....all with printed maps to help you navigate.
Richard himself was a pleasure to talk to and be around. Very easy going and very accommodating. We were traveling with a toddler (14 months old) and he allowed us access to his fridge if we needed, access to his kitchen sink so we could wash bottles, and access to his washer/dryer. Didn't even hesitate to ask us if we needed anything else.
The location is quiet, but close to Belmont University and Vanderbilt University Medical Center. Only a few blocks away are niche shops, a supermarket, and a variety of eateries, including the famous Biscuit Love (be prepared for a 15-20 minute wait). Richard also suggested a trip to Broadway for a cool downtown experience, which we did.
The neighborhood is friendly, quiet, and very safe. Would definitely book again.
