Fantastic stay, couldn't ask for more, Elizabeth, the host showed me around. She is very gracious and goes the extra mile every step of the way. The location is central to everything, easy to get around, even if just walking within Covington, the walk to Cincinnati isn't even all that bad. Very nice home with more than ample space, an old home that has been revitalized, very beautiful, highly recommended!

Visit to our former hometown

We spent 1 month in this darling 3rd floor apartment just a quick walk to downtown Covington and across the river to Cincinnati. The neighborhood was quiet, Elizabeth was an amazing host and there never was an issue with street parking. I would highly recommend this stunning Victorian home for your next vacation. You will never find a better host than Elizabeth.

A cozy, comfortable retreat

The apartment is very comfortable with all the nooks and nuances of an older home. While the stairs might be a challenge for some, the third-floor roost offers quiet, as well as good views of the neighborhood. Downtown is just a few blocks away, and a grocery is within walking distance.

Perfect central location

The property is in the perfect location for doing all the things we needed to do. We were able to walk over to Cincinnati for Reds game. We visited the Air Force Museum, the ark encounter and the creation museum. We took one day to just sort of hang out in the general area. The property is a renovated top floor of a historical home. It is renovated very well with all of the necessary appliances and comfortable spaces. Communication with the property owner was fast and reliable. If we have an opportunity to visit the area again, we would definitely try to stay there again.

Charming historical house

At first I was not sure how our stay was going to go When we arrived the apartment was 88 degrees and a lock box was over the thermostat. So we called and spoke with Elizabeth She got us the key for the thermostat and told us where the fan was located. The apartment is set up so cute from the reading nook to the kitchen. We enjoyed our stay and would like to thank Elizabeth for sharing her lovely home with us

Disappointed

We had very high hopes for our weekend getaway but even though the interior space was comfortable cute and cozy the neighborhood was terrifying and didn’t seem safe at all. We opted to not stay here due to our concerns over safety. The weekend in Cincinnati started off so bad we ended up going home a day early and wasting $400. The VRBO host was understanding and gracious but again the neighborhood was very sketchy to us.

The inside of the house is very nice, lots of charm, immaculate. The house number was not visible, and the parking not available Sunday night through the week nights due to morning street sweeping is inconvenient. Hostess very communicative and you can tell she takes pride in the beauty of her home.

If I could give 5 extra stars to this property I would. Where do I even begin? LOCATION: the property is centrally located to a hub of restaurant, enertainment, and river options. Historic home, with meticulously restored touches. Elizabeth the host was fabulous at providing information and recommendations on places to eat, relax, and sightsee. Beautiful neighborhood, lyft/uber friendly, parking. ACCOMODATION: It was beautiful, even more so in person, and IMMACULATELY clean. I mean, IMMACULATELY clean and tastefully decorated. Bathroom is spacious, and you have a few areas you could sit with guests that are not the bedroom. Cozy, wonderful kitchenette to use. Host was even kind enough to provide a litttle coffee, tea, and other options. Bed was very comfortable, actual bedroom was relaxing. Even had a guide for you to get to know the area. On top of all that there's a private back garden area to sit, enjoy the beautiful garden and even a small koi pond. Its gated so you feel private and secure and the whole garden was just peaceful. HOST: Best host ive ever had the pleasure to book with. She allowed you your private time, but was available, responsive, and most of all welcoming. I had not been to the area ever and she even took the time to show me a few places herself to ensure I got a taste of covington. Sweetest, most warm and accomodating human :) if you are looking for a place to stay in covington I really can't imagine a better accomodation. Wouldnt book anyplace else

Amazing Top Floor Loft

My husband and I loved our stay here. The building is over a hundred years old and has been renovated to keep its charm and updated with modern conveniences. The owner was easy to communicate with and check in and out was very easy. The bed was very comfortable and the shower was great. And the neighborhood was very nice as well. We will definitely stay here again.

Pleasant stay in Covington!

We had a great time at Elizabeth’s apartment. Easy check in and very secure apartment (locked gate and two key pads to separate entrance). No issues finding street parking. Comfy bed, stocked kitchen and bathroom. We were in town for a concert in Cincinnati but we also explored Covington. We felt safe in the neighbourhood and had no issues getting Ubers. We also did a lot of walking. Lots of stairs to get to the third floor but no issues at all for us, just make sure you are aware of this. We were very thankful for A/C as it was very hot when we were there. We would recommend!

Terrific Spot!

Elizibeth's third floor hideaway is perfect. Delightful, nicely appointed, and spotlessly clean. We arrived in the dark, so it was a bit tricky to see the entrance but we found our way just fine. Guests should take account of the stairs--a bit of a challenge schlepping our bags up, but we were well aware because Elizabeth made it very clear in the listing. I strongly recommend this spot. It was perfect for our stay in Covington/Cincinnati! Thank you, Elizabeth.
