A house with loads of character in Old Louisville neighborhood. Beds comfortable, kitchen(s) more than “just functional,” lots of good outdoor space. Great communication from the host, easy check out, very clean house. There’s a good coffee shop and pizza very close by. We walked to/from UL stadium for a game, drove to whiskey row in minutes, and day-tripped to Bardstown. This is a house/host you come back to.

This house is amazing. Lots of stairs for our older group. We are from a very small town so staying in the heart of the big city was a journey. We enjoy our stay and would do it again. Thank you for a good nights sleep after a long day of Fabric stores.
