Winter Escape | Condo Near 12 South & Vanderbilt

Summary:

Looking to stay close to downtown but don't want to spend a fortune? Welcome to this Melrose condo. This unit sits on the first floor of a 2-story restored historic hotel. The building is aging as well as the unit but for the location and price, this place will be hard to beat.



• Walkable to restaurants & bars

• Budget-friendly

• Keypad entry

• Free WiFi

• Washer & Dryer IN UNIT (front load, all-in-one)

• Free parking on-site

• Pool on site is open Memorial Day - Labor Day. -- *** Please note that our pool is closed for the season *** --



The Space:

Our condo works perfectly for 2 to 4 people. The studio is suitable for children. The space is a modest 420 sq ft with a king sized bed, sofa bed, table and chairs, TV with cable, and stainless steel appliances (no dishwasher). We also have an all-in-one washer and dryer in the unit.



What we love about the space are the location and pool. The studio is only 3 miles from downtown & the pool is literally outside your doorstep. After exploring the hustle and bustle of Honky Tonk Row, come layout and relax at Studio l! -- *** Please contact us for the pool schedule *** --



Towels & linen are provided. Travel-sized toiletries, a hairdryer, iron, and ironing board are provided. A drip coffee maker and basic kitchenware are also provided. Guests are responsible to provide any additional amenities desired such as additional toilet paper.



The studio complex is old. It was built in the 1950s and its age is starting to show. While we've taken measures to improve our condo, keep this in mind when booking. You won't be arriving at a fancy condo complex; it's a modest 2-story building sitting among trendy new construction. You will be booking this unit for the location and, if in the summer, the pool.



Please note before booking – while we have our quiet hours of 9 pm to 7 am, there is potential for noise as the complex is located in an urban area and you will have tenants above and beside you. We provide a sound machine for the unit but please be aware of this detail to make sure this condo is the right fit for you!



Guest Access:

You'll have access to the entire unit & the pool during open season (roughly Memorial Day thru September). -- *** Please contact us for the pool schedule *** --



There is a parking lot on-site with enough spots for 1 car per unit. Additional parking can be found up the street from the complex.



The Neighborhood:

ON FOOT

There are great local eateries, cafes, and bars nearby worth exploring within a 5-minute walk just North or South of the condo on 8th ave. Please keep in mind that currently there is a new building being constructed next door to this building so there are limited sidewalks to use at this time.



RIDESHARE

There are rideshares all over the city from Uber, Lyft, and even Earth Rides (Tesla cars only). They are easy to call anytime day or night. Pro traveler tip: download all apps to your phone so you can compare prices and get the cheapest option!



TAXIS

See the ride share option above, taxis are available however few and far between and can be quite pricey in Nashville. There are so many taxi companies that we really cannot recommend any one over another, and we encourage you to investigate rates and reviews to find one that suits your needs.



MTA BUSES

The MTA (Metro Transit Authority) Buses run all over Metro Nashville and even some surrounding counties. Very reasonable fares and a wide range of routes make the bus a cheap and easily navigable choice for visitors. The closest route to the studios will be #8.



NASHVILLE B-CYCLE

Nashville’s bicycle sharing program has been a huge success with locals and tourists. Simply walk up to any Nashville B-Cycle station, swipe your credit card and pick out your red bike! The closest B-Cycle station to the will be in 12South.
