Mint House Nashville Marathon Village by Kasa

Mint House Nashville Marathon Village by Kasa

8/10 Good
"10/10 experience! Really enjoyed the apartment-styled stay and amenities. Rooms are pretty clean, and I absolutely adore the minimalist decor. The online check-in went smoothly. You just fill out a form by Kasa. The link and confirmation code will be sent via email (or in my case, through Expedia). However, the hotel is located in an actively gentrifying area near a lesser-developed neighborhood up north. While the area’s walkable, it does feel a little sketchy, especially at night (use uber/lyft). And it’s also surrounded by railroads. So prepare to wait if there’s a train coming by. Doesn’t happen frequently but it did delay my trip to downtown once."
