Karen's home was comfortable and homey. The retro decorating and appliances brought back fond memories of our childhood homes in the 60's. We didn't meet Karen but she was very accessible through email for any questions we had. There is a long iron staircase to get to the apartment that felt a little intimidating at first but the comfort of the apartment more than made up for my nervousness around the stairs. I would recommend Karen's home to anyone wanting a comfortable, quiet place within driving distance of the sights of Nashville.
