My friend and I stayed in Michelle's Vandy room over labor day weekend. The location of the house is within walking distance to the Gulch area and is about a $6.00 Uber ride from the downtown and SoBro area, so it's a great option if you're looking for a trendy area that is not touristy.

The house was clean and amenities were good for our stay, though it was odd that we had to wash our own sheets after and there seemed to be extra charges or threat of charges for everything from Keurig cups to sensitive plumbing (if we were to mess it up). I found Michelle's rules outside of what is in the listing and her need for communication a bit excessive, especially because we had to ask over 2-3 messages just to get a door code and questions answered about dropping off bags, but she is very nice.

I do appreciate that she allowed us to check in early and leave our luggage at the house after check out at no additional cost since there was no one else checking in during that time (there is normally a fee for this service).

I think it just comes down to personal preference. If you're a low maintenance traveler and like a more hands-on host, I would recommend this place.
