I do love to party but this is a boutique loft with 17 condo owners, most of which are the quiet type.
The neighbors are family and do look out for each other. There is a building noise ordinance of 10 P.M. on weekdays and 11 P.M. on weekends.

We loved out weekend in the loft. Even though it was cold, it was within walking distance of the Seelbach Hotel, where we enjoyed appetizers and drinks. The unit was probably the cleanest we've had with great amenities and comfortable furnishings. The communication and directions provided by Justin were also perfect. When we return to Louisville, we will definitely check the availability for River City Loft first.

Justin was a fantastic host who responded quickly to all our questions and made extending our trip by a few days completely seamless. He provided incredibly detailed check-in instructions that were both accurate and easy to follow, which we really appreciated.The space itself actually exceeded the photos. The high ceilings create an airy feel that makes the unit seem even larger than its actual footprint. We found the bed to be very comfortable, and the kitchen and bathroom were well-stocked with plenty of amenities. Although it was a bit too cold for us to use the outdoor patio during this visit, it is clearly a wonderful asset to the condo.We loved the character of the building, which is a repurposed department store that still lists the original departments by floor in the elevator. The old wood floors are beautiful and add a lot of charm to the experience.The location was ideal for attending events at the Kentucky International Convention Center, as it was only a five-minute walk from the front door on South 4th Street. It is also a convenient ten to twenty-minute walk to everything on Whiskey Row, including the Louisville Slugger Museum. We will definitely check for availability at River City Loft the next time we travel to Louisville.
