Such a quaint place. Very peaceful. Our 1st “INN” stay. Jim was great. Greeted us out front and was very helpful in getting us familiar the property. Room was delightful. Very homey feel. Felt very safe and secure also. Breakfast made by Jim the next morning was top notch. All in all we will definitely stay there again when we visit Nashville the next time.
