Kate was very welcoming and accommodating of our arrival/departure times. She was also easy to contact prior to arrival and during our stay, which was wonderful. The photos of the apartment are accurate: it is bright and clean, and the building is quiet. The neighborhood is busy, with many bars and restaurants in the surrounding area. (Vanderbilt is just a few blocks away too) You can walk to downtown or other neighborhoods easily. The area around the apt. itself is great for walking around and exploring, and as long as you're out and about and not looking to go to bed early, the noise from the surrounding activities shouldn't be a concern. Overall, we enjoyed our stay with Kate and thought the apt. was ideal for exploring Nashville for a weekend.
