Why they chose this property
Prior to having a little guy, it was always just Richard and me on our travels. It was tough to find accommodations that fit a small group without unnecessary extra space. That's why the studio was perfect for people like us – just the right size for 1-4 people, equipped with all the essentials & dog-friendly. Situated in the vibrant Melrose / 12 South area, it's surrounded by fantastic dining and drinking spots. Plus, it's conveniently close to Downtown Nashville and carries a cool retro vibe that we adore. Bonus: There's a pool in summer!
