First stop on our Tennesse road trip. Perfect to unwind after a day in the car with comfy living area and quality bedding. Walk to shops and restaurants - we loved Myrtle's chicken & waffles! Short distance to the university for a visit with my teen.

Cute place
Stayed for parents weekend - cute place within walking distance of the Square. Advertised coffee would be supplied and even emailed but there was only a coffee maker, creamer and sugar. Also, property manager wouldn’t allow me to mail back parking pass and insisted on charging $50.

We had a fantastic experience and would stay again. A warm and inviting spacious loft in the Old City. Location was perfect for a college visit for our son and football game. Securing the property on line was super easy and convenient. Check-in and Check-out was just as easy. I would give more stars if it were possible.

Great Location in Old City
This was the perfect place for our overnight in the Old City. It is in walking distance to a ton of restaurants and night life. Easy check-in and the property management team responded to all questions/requests within minutes. Parking was close by and finding street parking out front for loading/unloading was easy. It's a loft, but each bedroom was quiet when we shut the doors. Was concerned with building noise, but once inside it was as quiet as can be.
