4/10 Poor

Liked: Check-in, location
Disliked: Cleanliness, communication, listing accuracy
Was probably nice, now very worn-down
The good:
• Location – Ideal location, 5-minute Uber to downtown or within the $20 minimum taxi zone for all the action. Also, within the scooter and E-bike areas for cheap and quick transport. Great access to freeways for smooth travel to destinations outside of downtown and has included covered parking but it is not secure or covered by Security cameras
• Layout – The unit is reasonably spacious for a 1 bedroom and was more than ample for 2 people
• Quiet – the unit and area is generally very quiet, a small bit of road noise off of Jefferson Ave Bridge but not bad at all.
• Amenities – The unit has everything you will need for amenities, Dishwasher, Microwave, Laundry, Fitness facilities etc.
The Bad:
• Overall, this unit is very worn out, is has been rented out for a lengthy period of without any updates or repairs.
• Cleanliness: the basics of the unit were clean, blankets, floors, counters etc. were all good but as we stayed, we found issues, the toilet was not cleaned before we arrived, dishes had been put back in the cupboards dirty, the coffee maker still had wet grounds in it.
• The kitchen sink is stained horribly and looks very bad.
• The bathroom sink tap is loose (moves side to side) and will likely start to leak very soon.
• The Tub drain is very slow and is starting to back up
• The shower curtain has mold along the bottom and needs replaced
• TV only has a Roku box, with no VPN so us, international travelers, were not able to use it. Would have like to be able to see the local weather or news
• LASTLY - THE SPIDERS! Nashville and Tennessee have seen a substantial growth in spiders over the past couple decades (I found out here). The Condo owner and Complex are doing basically nothing about this resulting in the complete exterior of the building being covered in spider webs and I do mean the complete building including in the parking garage. They are so bad that it has rendered the small patio basically unusable. I tried to attempt to sweep it off but lost that battle to the webs and had to take a shower they were so bad.
• If Spiders outside were not bad enough, there were multiple spider webs in the corners inside the unit, I only found and killed one spider in our 6 days but that was in our few waking hours inside the unit.
With very little effort this unit could easily be fixed up, we still enjoyed our trip, and the unit is in a great location but as much as I’d like to recommend this unit I cannot, it is just way over-price
