This is a nice, quiet place to stay in Nashville with free parking. It is a short drive/uber to most areas of town. We took several ubers to places like the Gulch and downtown and they were all like 6. Ron & Susan were so helpful, and the keypad door lock made check in a breeze!

We had a wonderful and cozy stay. The place was very close to the downtown area; we did Uber into downtown, but all of the drives were very inexpensive, and it is walkable to downtown. The rooms were very comfortable and the living area was very roomy for our group (3 people).

Upon arrival, noticed beds were low to the ground, but very comfortable. The clock on the wall was always 5:00. Took as a sign to have fun. Location was close enough to downtown, just a few minutes drive and about 20 min from General Jackson paddle boat and Opry mall. Was a fun trip and enjoy the Nashville Zoo, Johnny Cash museum, Escape room, General Jackson Boat ride in the evening.
