We stayed in this house for six days and chose this location due to our daughter attending the Meridian School for Surgical Assist and we did not want her to have a long commute in Nashville traffic. Unfortunately on her first day home from school she was rear ended at a stop light by a hit and run driver. The neighborhood of the school, the house and the accident is a very sketchy part of town. We were on a tour bus in Nashville touring the city when our daughter hysterically called us. We had to have the driver pull over and let us out and literally walk two miles back to where our car was parked. We arrived at the scene and waited three hours for police to arrive. While there we witnessed another accident. My husband and daughter saw a cop arrive at the accident (that he didn’t even get the call on just drove up on it) so they ran across the busy intersection to go find the cop to let him know we had been waiting there for three hours and we were getting very uncomfortable waiting there due to sketchy area and homeless people roaming around. Eventually then we get two fire trucks and an ambulance with full sirens pull in to the gas station to tell us they had a report of a hit and run with injuries! I said to the fireman “no we would have all been dead as we have been waiting here for nearly three hours”. He told us we needed to get out of that area and to just call the police and file report over the phone and to not go down two more lights as there are stabbings etc daily. We did not want to not have personal contact with police as we needed this for insurance so that we would be able to get the claim filed properly. Luckily we ended up getting to file a report with the cop we located on our own across the street in the Walgreens parking lot.
Even though the house was nice and we had no problems at the house, we would not choose to stay there again.
The house was modern and nicely decorated. The beds were comfortable. It was nice that there were several things provided in the kitchen if you plan to prepare meals. It is not what I would call fully stocked but it is definitely functional.
The house was not filthy by any means but it was not at a standard of clean that I feel it should have been. I know that we are extremists on cleanliness and one persons idea of clean and another’s can be two different things. I just feel that for the price of nearly $270 a day it has lots of room for improvement so that you can truly feel you are getting your moneys worth.
I spoke to the neighbor next door and that is what gave me a little peace of mind.
She admitted the area down the street was very sketchy but that they had lived there two years and had not had any issues. She also said one day she saw a man pull in and take the lawn furniture off the front porch and drive off. I said well I guess that’s why there are no chairs here to sit outside on the porch.
The walls inside need painted everywhere as there are marks on those and the trim.
The floors were dirty as we had taken our shoes off and the bottom of our socks were black. Glass shards and debris on the concrete drive that needed blown off.
Beds were very comfortable. It was nice that there were three full bathrooms. The room with the two beds does not have a TV.
Things provided that were nice touches were the Kuerig, toilet paper, paper towels, dish soap, hand soap, shampoo and conditioner, laundry soap, washer and dryer, fans, kitchen necessities, dishwasher detergent, garbage bags, ice for coolers, nice fridge, microwave, and stove.
The communication was good with Mary prior to the trip. After the trip I sent her a message to let her know that we were checking out. I let her know that I had started the dishwasher and also towels in the dryer and another load started so that she would be aware that this was done so that the laundry did not sit in the washer. I have not gotten a response back from her on this that I sent to her yesterday when we left at 8am.
I would recommend that this house is nice but just needs more attention to detail to make it a five star review rather than the three star review that we gave it.
