The house was clean and very nice! My friends loved the Brownstone style and the rustic look the brick walls provided. The beds were comfortable. There are 2 bedrooms on the 2nd floor and 2 bedrooms on the 3rd floor. All rooms had comfortable temperatures. We had 8 guests for 2 days and we had enough towels and washcloths. It was only a 5 minute drive to the Louisville Palace where we attended concerts. Very smooth experience.

Concert stay
The house is old but remodeled nicely. We needed 4 bedrooms and something fairly close to Old Forestor Paristowne Hall. The beds are all super comfy. Kitchen is nicely stocked and clean.Only reason we didn't give 5 stars all the way around is the neighborhood is rough In appearance but we had no issues while we were there

Staff and Spouse Event
Our staff all came in from different places to an event. The property was perfect for all of us to spend time together in a common, comfortable setting. The bedrooms were spacious. We love the old town charm of the brick walls and decor. Great place to hang out with friends.
