We stayed at Debra's cottage during our visit for CMA Fest. Her place was just what we needed for the two of us. It was a short/inexpensive Lyft ride to downtown where we spent most of our time. The area also felt very safe and we had no issues walking anywhere, even later at night. There are also some restaurant and bars within walking distance (about 0.8 miles away).
The cottage was very clean and had all the amenities we needed including a Keurig, kitchen utensils, iron/ironing board, towels, and a hair dryer. Check-in and check-out were very easy. Communication with Debra was great before, during and after our stay. I definitely recommend Debra's cottage for your short or extended trip to Nashville!
