Access to the back porch is from the kitchen, where you will find 4 chairs and an outdoor table. The string lights can be plugged in outside next to the door to light up this space.

The upstairs is where you will find both bedrooms.

The master bedroom has a queen bed (sleeps 2), and a master bathroom with 2 sinks, a shower, and jacuzzi tub. Fire up those jets! :)

The 1 car garage is currently in its original state from over 140 years ago. It opens and closes like barn doors and fits 1 sedan or SUV.

*If you drive a large truck it would be a tight fit pulling in from the alley, so we recommend using street parking.

Great location! The neighborhood is quiet. The house has charming character and was the perfect size for 5 people. The host let me park my vehicle in the garage early before check in which was much appreciated. My small suv fit perfectly. The upkeep could be improved a bit. Little things like the tub drain overflow hanging out, towel rack hanging out of the wall a bit. Overall, it met our needs for the one night stay.

I’d like to begin my review stating I am a very frequent VRBO renter. I have NEVER EVER been this disappointed. This property barely had any towels. The towel I used was full holes. There were mismatched bedsheets. No paper towels in the kitchen upon check in, and two half rolls of bathroom tissue in the upstairs bathroom only. Bathroom fixture pieces all over the place and hanging off the tub. Oh and don’t even bring more than one vehicle or a decent sized vehicle. You have to search around the crowded neighborhood for street parking in a sketchy neighborhood. Save your money and find another rental. For this price, I would NEVER recommend this place to anyone! Not up to VRBO standards AT ALL!!!!!!!!

Our stay lasted about an hour, as our host agreed it’s not a house for everyone. However, no refund. No refund even though the house and furniture reeked of pet urine. No refund even though the sheets were not recently cleaned, smelled of body odor, and there was dirt and hair on them. The yard, completely overgrown and full of trash. The back deck covered in leaves and trash, table with dirty ashtray. Not a cleaning product or broom to be found to help clean what obviously has not been cleaned before arriving. A sole K cup pod, lights that didn’t work, bathroom completely dark. The parking garage takes multi point turns to finally get in, our Subaru Outback barely making it in. Did I mention no refund? We had to make alternate arrangements, a lot of stress after a full day of travel. How anyone can call this acceptable for guests, especially in German Village, is beyond me and an insult to any renter.
Unkept yard
Overflowing trash, though neighbors had there trash collection as we were arriving
Unkept, no latches work well anywhere

Personal opinion based on recent experience. The owner's lack of communication and responsiveness when we tried to reach out before our stay made the process unnecessarily stressful. We had to call the owner a couple of times to get the door code. We received bad instructions on how to locate the property. The owner failed to inform us that the GPS doesn't help much. The house was extremely bare. One set of towels for two bathrooms; the TV remote was broken; and there was always a light on upstairs. The heat doesn't work very well, especially upstairs, and there are very few pieces of kitchenware.

Well to say this was a stressful experience is not a lie! We did not receive our property access info until 1 hour before check in. We contacted the host and he informed us there was some tecnical difficulties with vrbo and they lost our reservation. The place was not cleaned but he rushed to make it right the best he could. We had to wait until 5:30 while they cleaned but the host explained what happened and offered to cancel with a full refund. When we explained we had no where else to go, he gave us a good discount for our trouble. We all tried to make the best of a bad situation. The place is comfortable for a nights stay and within walking distance of several restaurants. Parking is a bit tricky so be prepared! I didnt get the impression this was a normal occurance so I wouldnt let this experience detour you from booking. Just make sure you confirm everything with the host!

Beds were clean and comfortable and the neighborhood was quiet. Our car fit into the small garage and we were thankful for it. The hosts were helpful, kind, and quick to respond to communication. Home would be perfect for a small family traveling in a small vehicle, maybe with a small pet (yard is fenced).

Very beautiful home with some very beautiful original features. Well cared for. My children and I had a wonderful time. We were able to visit all the places I loved when I was growing up in Columbus. The owners did a wonderful job of having everything ready. We didn’t need to ask for anything. Would love to be able to stay here again.

Overall, the stay was satisfactory for a one-night stay. The location is in an alley, and parking is inconvenient, as we had to park three blocks away since the garage they included is only for small cars. They said it has A/C, and while it was cool on the first floor, it was quite warm upstairs where the bedroom was, but they provided a fan, so that was helpful. Upon entering the house, it had a strong cleaning smell that caused some discomfort for us with sensitive smell. The closet in the upstairs bedroom had a deadbolt that only a key could open, and the light was still on inside, so it bothered us just a bit. Other than that, it is a neat neighborhood for shopping.

Great location, charm of a historic house, great for family and dog to hang out, responsive host, a few understandable quirks of an older home like sticky doors and upstairs rooms struggled to be cool on hot days, but nothing that got in the way of a fun family stay. Listing just as described.
