Residence Inn by Marriott Brentwood Nashville

Residence Inn has partnered up with us* during our 2010 Road Trip Adventure, and we really couldn’t be happier. As I have mentioned in my previous posts, I consider the Residence Inn hotels to be a perfect fit for our family. Not only because of the size of the rooms, but also because of the amenities found throughout. These reviews are to give you feedback of our experiences with them and a small view into what you can expect from a stay at any of the locations we experienced.

Upon our visit to Nashville we stay in the Residence Inn by Marriott Brentwood Nashville. We arrived later in the night, and were exhausted.

Our two-bedroom suite was ideal not only in size, but in location as well. On the first floor and located right across the pool, this would have been an even more perfect spot for us had we been able to stay longer.

The room included two-bedrooms with queen size beds as well as a pull out couch in the living room. There was also the standard full service kitchen. Complimentary breakfast is served every morning as well. In addition, this particular location also hosts nightly dinner events for their guests during the week which allow the guests to get to know the General Managers and staff as well as other guests in the hotel. Sadly we missed the festivities for dinner.

During breakfast I was able to observe the GM interact with his guests (before introducing myself to him), some of which he seemed to know personally. He was courteous and helpful, but most of all let his guests know he was available for whatever they needed. This always makes me feel good about the hotel as it sends a clear message that your comfort is their utmost priority.

The drive to downtown Nashville is about 20 minutes, and I found the prices for staying in the Brentwood area much more affordable then staying in the downtown area. A two-bedroom, 2 bathroom suite around the time of our stay was $179.00 a night with better offers available with more extended stays.

The hotel also offers free internet connection (with cable provided in room), a small fitness center, and small office area with fax service.

Our short stay was comfortable and pleasant, further complimented by the friendliness and approachable nature of the GM there.

Thank you to the Management and Staff at Residence Inn by Marriott Brentwood Nashville for their service and hospitality.

Happy winter and merry everything as we enjoy anot Happy winter and merry everything as we enjoy another snowy day in the Finger Lakes. 

Personally, I am ready to hibernate for a bit and enjoy a book or two by the fire while the sounds of my guys fills our home. 

I am in no rush to start the new year but am also excited to get started. I want a year filled with more time with friends, and pursuing projects that I am really inspired by and to be surrounded by inspiring people. I expect to say no a lot this year, after so many years of saying yes and regretting it. I want days that feel happy and healthy and fulfilling. 

Not too much to ask, right? And I wish you all a happy and healthy year too. May you love and be loved in all the ways you deserve and need. ❤️

Thanks for the follow, the support, the DMs and comments, and kindness expressed and shared.
This time of year is a joyous one but it can also This time of year is a joyous one but it can also be terribly overwhelming and draining. 

As someone managing two small businesses and all that life throws my way, I felt I needed a little escape, and Rochester always delivers!

We booked a hotel room, hit up all of our favorite spots, and a couple of new ones. On the list of musts:

📍Highland Park Diner- a must for a hearty breakfast to start the day. Best on weekdays for no crowds. 
📍Siren and the Sea - new cafe bookstore full of good reads, cozy vibes, and yummy drinks
📍Happy Earth Tea - where I picked up some delicious chai and matcha (also a sweet little yap spot with friends). 
📍Lamberton Conservatory - especially this time of year as it’s decorated for the holidays. Was a lovely spot to sit on a bench and zen out for a bit.
📍Winter Swan Coffee - afternoon cafecito, gift and plant shopping
📍Ugly Duck Coffee - the main reason we were inspired to come to Rochester on this specific day, for their Industry Night, where we nerded out about coffee “and beyond”. Of course we went back the next morning for coffee!
📍Rochester Public Market - for some evening holiday market strolling and hellos to our friends Sylvan Farm and Cidery who were working the market!
📍Lucky’s for dinner - yummy, but man oh man do I miss their onion rings!

Absolutely love this city for it’s ability to make me feel happier and lighter. Happy place 🫶🏾.
I’ve seen some pretty spectacular sunsets in my I’ve seen some pretty spectacular sunsets in my travels. Some of my absolute favorites have been on a beach in Mazatlán, Mexico, behind The Brandenburg Gate in Berlin, Germany, while sitting on a fisherman’s dock in Seoul, South Korea, along the rugged seashore of La Perla, Puerto Rico, and here in the Finger Lakes. Not an exaggeration. The sunsets here are stunning. Breathtaking even.

As a Brooklyn girl, born and raised, I never could As a Brooklyn girl, born and raised, I never could’ve imagined a reason to stray too far from my beloved city…and then, I found the Finger Lakes. Never say never. 🤷🏾‍♀️

Bonus: Brooklyn feels like a world away from all this peace and beauty, but it’s only a 4 hour drive. 🫶🏾

During my recent jaunt to @visittheberkshires I im During my recent jaunt to @visittheberkshires I immersed myself in @massmoca bliss. With 250,000 square feet of gallery space, it’s easy to understand how with three visits thus far,  I still haven’t seen all there is to see. 

Strolling the interconnected buildings and walkways leads you into a new experience, and with each ticket allowing for two consecutive day visits, you are encouraged to take your time. 

Another thing to note is that in between my visits (separated by a month’s time) I got to see new installations that weren’t there before, as many of the exhibits are ever-evolving. 

I have yet to visit during warmer temps, when the outdoor spaces are activated with more art and events, so am definitely excited to return. It would also be cool to catch a live performance there! 

Bonus: the coffee shop adjacent to the museum - @tunnelcitycoffee - serves up some good sips, and I highly recommend reservations to @casitaberkshires, the Mexican restaurant also on campus.

Experiencing true four seasons is one of the things I love about living here because everything changes each time. The energy is more serene and mellow. The world is so chaotic and sad in many ways these days, it’s really healing to be surrounded by the quiet and stillness of nature on a snow day in the Finger Lakes.
