Beds were comfortable, covers so pretty! Love Germantown, great location, cute living room, fun artwork, nice TVs, large kitchen table to sit at. Parking area in the back. Small bathroom, large but simple kitchen. Some nice details from the original workers cottage.
Clean house in a great location! Had everything we needed for a weekend in Nashville. Walkable to several delicious bars and restaurants and quick ride down to Broadway. Would definitely stay again!
The house is located in a wonderful walkable neighborhood. The house is old but charming and comfortable. The bathroom is really small but there are other mirrors to get ready at. We didn’t cook but the kitchen has lots of utensils and dishes. The washer and dryer are in good condition and worked well. The hosts were responsive and allowed us to check in a little early to meet our flight schedules.
Overall, we had a pleasant stay and the house was comfortable. There are a few areas that could be improved, particularly with cleaning, as some areas were a bit dusty and the shower tub could be better maintained. The kitchen could also benefit from a few additional amenities, such as an electric kettle, to make it more convenient for guests. With a little extra attention to these details, this would be an even nicer place to stay.

We want every guest to know if the cleaning is not up to par, please reach out, and we will make things right for every guest to have an amazing stay. Our kitchens are well-stocked with all the essentials, but they may not have luxuries that every guest uses at home.
Super cozy!! It wasn ’t too far from downtown and there were many places near us to eat. The home itself was very clean and in a very quiet neighborhood.
The property is wonderful, vintage, perfect location and off street parking was fabulous! Communication with the host was perfect and everytime I asked a question or had a comment they always respond within minutes. The house is clean and the beds are super comfortable. There are many places to eat/drink within walking distance. We were out walking the neighborhood every night of our stay. We had a wonderful stay and I would choose this property again if/when we come back again.

So Happy you loved your stay! We will replace the door knobs ASAP!
In Nashville for Southern Festival of Books. Location was perfect. Also loved all the restaurants close by. Cottage was cozy and comfortable. Bathroom could use an upgrade - was not as clean as we would have liked but think this was because everything is so old. Snacks and water were appreciated. We would stay here again, primarily because of the location.

If any guest feels the house was not cleaned to proper standards, please reach out! We are happy to make it right and have every guest have the best stay possible!
Charming vintage cottage in a beautiful, historic neighborhood just minutes for the action of downtown Nashville. The house was nicely decorated, had guest amenities, and was very comfortable. Super fun Southern swing on the porch for winding down in the evenings. The host were very quick and helpful when responding to inquiries.

The property is very run down. The bathroom is small to say the least. Tub faucet is difficult to control water flow in tub.Toilet is small good for little kids. Kitchen stove is from an another century I was afraid to use it.House needs work. On a plus size it was very convenient to Downtown Nashville.

We love to keep the house as original as we can to keep its charm. We investigated the bathroom after this review and have made repairs. We want every guest to know you can reach out to us and we will always do our best to make your stay amazing!
We have been to Nashville a few times now and every time we have stayed in Germantown. We love the neighbourhood, the restaurants and the cute homes. And it’s just a 10 minute scooter ride to downtown! This home was in the perfect location and had everything we needed. With 4 people, the bathroom could have been a little bigger but it gets the job done. We enjoyed our coffee every morning on the porch swing and listened to the birds chirping. Such a peaceful place. Would return to and recommend this cute little home!
