Michelle's house is located in a truly central part of Nashville. After a 10 minute walk, you are in the Gulch--an up-and-coming neighborhood adjacent to the downtown area--and in another 10 minutes you can be downtown. It takes 10-15 minutes to walk to Vanderbilt's Peabody campus, and the hip neighborhood of 12 South is just a straight shot down 12th Avenue--about 10 minutes by car or bike (I biked, and it was lovely). The neighborhood is extremely welcoming during the day, but--although I was assured by a couple different people otherwise--I felt a little unsafe walking home by myself at night. I would recommend cabbing home later at night. I felt very safe in the house.

Michelle was very welcoming, offering tips, and even letting me check in early, as my flight arrived at 5am, and all I wanted to do was go back to sleep!

The room is great for one person, or even two, although there is no closet space, so your clothes stay kind of stacked around or in your suitcase. Bed was nice and clean, and there was a comfy chair to read in.

I wasn't aware that there would be someone else renting out Michelle's other bedroom. Perhaps I overlooked that on the Air BnB description, but I was caught a little off guard. It didn't end up being an issue though, as I never even saw the other guest.

Overall a wonderful, and inexpensive place to stay in Nashville. I would definitely return.
