Very pleasant, very comfortable house in a cool neighborhood. The hosts were very easy to communicate with. Plenty of space for a decent size family or group to hang out. Check out was very simple and easy.
Great location! This is a clean and interesting shotgun-style house in the heart of Germantown. A block away from Hauck's and Hop Atomica brewery, and under a 10 minute walk from tons of good bars and restaurants. Owner was communicative beforehand to let us know all the necessary details. I would absolutely recommend this spot for friends or family looking for a quiet place with good access to the local area.
I loved the feel of the house. You could tell it had been there for a long time but was well taken care of. The beds were super comfortable and i appreciated that there was no TV in any bedroom. The wall of boardgames was a really nice touch.
The hosts were very communicative, the place was clean and comfortable for all three of us. Close to everything. It served as a great HQ for our bourbon trail adventures.
Easy check-in/check-out process, house met all needs. I will definitely book this again the next time I visit.
Short walking distance to several restaurants, bars, and breweries. Quick Uber/Lyft to downtown Louisville.
Perfect for our sisters trip, though we didn't love the in street parking it is what's available in the area. House was clean and great for the two of us.
We had a wonderful time. The location was great and close to a lot of attractions and food options. The home wasn’t as clean as we were hoping for (sheets and dishwasher) but over all we really enjoyed our stay.
This is a spacious property with funky decor in a cool neighborhood. Check in was smooth and there were plenty of supplies all around. I enjoyed my stay here and would recommend it. This is what VRBO properties should be!
This was a great, central location for checking out a few distilleries while in Louisville. Walking distance to several restaurants and less than ten minutes from downtown. The house was perfect for the four of us. We enjoyed our time.
This home is cozy, comfortable. It is convenient to many Louisville attractions and night life! The hometown inspired decor, local artisans' work, is very lovely and funky too! The property manager is very responsive and helpful.
Such a safe, lovely neighborhood. Close to downtown. It was perfect for our needs. The back bedrooms get a bit chilly. Bring your warm pajamas! Great place to stay.
