Help! Looking for a place to stay in Nashville

8 years ago

We have a trip planned in March for a long weekend in Nashville. There will be six adults so we want three bedrooms. We are probably going to do typical touristy stuff. I have been looking at air b & bs but I am having a hard time telling if the neighborhoods are safe and in a good location. We will have a car. Can anyone give me advise? I am not opposed to hotels but I would rather not pay $400/night if possible. Ugh, Nashville is a tough town to figure out!

Do you mean 400.00 per night for all six of you or per room? Expecting to pay under 400.00 for six adults simply isn't realistic anywhere. If you check trip advisor there are plenty of mid priced reputable chain hotels for well under 400.00 per night in the area.

I would think with 6 adults you're going to be fairly safe wherever, especially if you have parking on premises, which most seem to have. A 3 bedroom Air B&B will have reviews about safety and neighborhoods. I'd think you could find something nice for much less than $400, for sure.

Lots of choices with good reviews! Good prices, too.

Looking for Local fruit tree farm near Nashville, TN
Q

Others here will know better than I about the quality of their trees, but there is a seller named Freedom Tree Farms whose main location is in Pelham TN. They claim to be the largest nursery east of MS River and they supply Lowes, Home Depot, Kroger, and Wal-Mart. You can google them to find their online site, though I know for certain that they have a much, much wider variety than what is listed on their web site. Their trees are all potted and about 5-6 foot tall- you can decide for yourself if that is better or worse than small bare-root trees that many here prefer. But here is the best part for you: They operate a satellite retail business which carries a pretty full selection of fruit trees and berry plants (more than shown on their web site) at the Nashville Farmers market every single weekend. Their trees are $15 and berries are $12 and both are large and healthy looking potted plants. So you now have an opportunity to buy almost any kind of fruit tree or berry right there in Nashville, hope that helps. Daves Garden rates them great, but only has 2 reviews so you have to take it with a grain of salt. I've bought trees from them and been very pleased, but I'm new to fruit trees and lack experience needed to be a good judge. Good luck. Nashville farmers market is near downtown Nashville at 900 Rosa Parks Blvd.

Hi ! I'm in nashville too !! With your budget , I'd stay local and hit up the box stores ( lowes or hd). Esp this week, they are having " Black Friday " sales on landscape stuff. If you just want to try to do a temporary fix until you know if you are moving , I'd suggest some zinnias seeds.They grow nice and will fill up a good space , stay about 2-3 ft tall ( read the packets to make sure it's what height u prefer) and bloom their heads off. And if u are still in the same house next year you can start fresh and plan more. Some perennials I love for sun that are low maintenance and I've seen already in stores - walkers low catmint , salvias , lavenders , echinaceas . Don't forget to get some mulch ! It'll finish the look and help keep weeds down and water from evaporating . Good luck !

How do you get your duvet cover to stay in place?
Q
Comments (21)
I have ties on the corners of my duvet, but no loops on the comforter, so I just bunch up the corner of the comforter a little and tie around the corner. You can do the same just by sewing shoestrings or the like to all four corners. Make sure you choose a tie that you can easily undo and redo many times, that's why I like the idea of using a shoestring. Sewing loops onto the comforter would be more work, but if you're so inclined I say go for it.

Going to London/Paris - need place to stay & things to do
Q

You are in a great location and won't waste time getting to the attractions on your list. The metro is very safe and easy to navigate. 3 days in Paris has some excellent suggestions. You will see a few highlights and can plan another trip to see more in the future. Here's what I would want to see with my children: Eiffel Tower-yes, climb to the top. The view is spectacular Museum D'Orsay (used to be a train station) Notre Dame (stand on the star, which is the city center) Louxembourg Gardens (spectacular place for a picnic lunch). We stayed in that district once (I think it's the 5th.) We enjoyed Sacre Coeur. Loved the Montmartre area. Full of street artists and lovely cafe's. Many people have written about how to hit the highlights of Paris. Do you watch the travel channel? Rick Steve's has an excellent show and also has books. On our first trip I took his Paris book out of the library to help plan our 5 days. https://www.ricksteves.com/watch-read-listen/read/articles/paris-itinerary One bit of advice: when entering a store or restaurant greet the staff with "Bon Jour" and smile. Almost everyone there speaks English, so if you struggle with your French they will most likely speak English. The French get a bad rap as being unfriendly. I did not find that to be true. As long as you show them respect, acknowledge them and ask for help, you will get along just fine. I love to plan vacations and then sit back and enjoy as it plays out. Plan on doing LOTS of walking and eating! Enjoy!

If you're hoping to pay under $400 per night per couple, try 21c Museum Hotel. It is gorgeous, and the food in the restaurant is outstanding.

Spani, post this over in Home Decorating Conversations. There are also many people there who like to travel and can chime in with ideas.

I agree about location. I don't do Air and B but my two DD's do. Most often they are happy, but last year oldest didn't like the neighborhood she was in while going to a wedding in San Antonio Texas.

You want to feel comfortable as you will be coming and going in the evenings as well as the day.

I looked at the Airbnb Nashville map. Generally where all the rentals are clumped together on the map is where most people want to be. At least that's what I've found in a medium sized city like Nashville. Just read the reviews and you should be able to discern what's appropriate for your group. If people state that they walk to a lot of attractions, most likely it's a safe neighborhood. I've been doing Airbnb for over 6 years now, and cannot recall any horror stories of being in the wrong neighborhood, or feeling unsafe but I'm sure it does happen. But I read reviews very thoroughly. You can also ask the host questions.

We go to Nashville often for concerts or other fun. Typically we stay overnight or a couple of nights and just stay in a hotel downtown where we can walk and dine where we want. But I understand your desire to perhaps stay out in a more affordable location.

I am not familiar with all of Nashville’s surrounding areas, but I do know that most of the Southwest area is good, from the Vanderbilt area south, including Belle Meade/Green Hills, Brentwood, Franklin. You will have to drive into downtown Nashville, but it will be a short drive. Prices still may be on the high side. Franklin has a charming little downtown area worth checking out, as well as some great places to eat.

There are some other up and coming neighborhoods in the surrounding areas, but those escape me at the moment. Hopefully someone more familiar will chime. Rob is one who will comment I hope.

Message me with specifics if you want! Yes, I have many ideas of the neighborhoods in Nashville. The most affluent areas are Belle Meade and Green Hills. So the nicest places. Somewhat close to downtown and the interstate.
