Great location! Clean! Wish there would have been a keurig or coffee maker so we could have bought some coffee for our stay. It was nice outside and not a far walk to coffee so it wasn’t too bad in the morning but having the ability to make it instead would go a long way. Seems like an easy add because there is a nice little sink area. Other than that it was great!

Great location!

Couldn’t have been located better! We were able to walk to dinner twice and see one of the most eclectic parts of Louisville by being on Bardstown Rd, all while having a quiet stay. The room had everything we needed and was easy to get in and out of!

Loft above garage

Small loft above a garage. Seemed to be a nice neighborhood until I woke up in the morning and found my car was stolen. Message property manager about information for police but no cameras in the alley you have to park in
