We had a wonderful Christmas stay at the house. The house was decorated beautifully and there was every amenity we could ask for. The beds were all super comfortable, and there were plenty of towels and kitchen supplies. We walked to the zoo for the Festival of Lights and overall had a wonderful stay. Kris could not have been more welcoming or responsive. 12/10 experience.

Very accommodating for our group with pets. Excellent with quick replying to questions including on Thanksgiving Day! Beds were great. Plenty of blankets for a large group. Heating units in top floor bedrooms definitely helped during the chilly Cincy winter.

We enjoyed our stay here immensely. Kris is a fantastic host, super responsive and helpful. The street can be busy, but not a problem for us and our little (leashed) pup. Very short drive to the cute Clifton area. We'd definitely stay again.

Comfy and Convenient

Lots of room to unwind and refresh. Close to downtown and highways. Well equipped and updated. Appreciated the hospitable gestures of drinks in fridge, etc. and convenience of laundry room. On a kinda busy street, but noise minimal and parking readily available at nearby side street.
