Beautiful space and perfect for a family of four and grandparents! We enjoyed walking to the Well for breakfast each morning. The host was very accommodating and quickly responds to questions! The pool was perfect for the slow mornings. We were within walking distance to many fun spots! I would stay here again!

Perfect in Every Way!
This condo was absolutely perfect for our family of four! We love the fact that each bedroom had its own private bathroom, and thoroughly enjoyed all the amenities the property offered. We also loved being only a short Uber ride from all that Downtown Nashville had to offer, while finding peace & quiet at night! Our host was also amazing at keeping in touch & answering questions for us before, during, & after our stay! Highly recommend The Optimist at H&O Nashville!

Great location in an out of the way boutique historical hotel. So much better than the chains on this road trip of ours.
