Nice home

Good sized rooms and lots of items in the kitchen available for use. It even had dryer sheets and laundry soap. However, there was a full open trash can on the curb that smelled, the WiFi didn't work and then when it did it was extremely slow. There was not adequate silverware with only 3 spoons and forks and some cookware was dirty in the cupboards. It also might be helpful to have a bath mat as the wet floor was quite slippery. The silverware and WiFi issue was reported and not addressed by the owner. It was an okay stay, but the place can be improved with a bit of cleaning and adequate supplies for the amount of guests.

Overall a fantastic stay! Communication with the host was great before and during our trip. The house was very clean and welcoming. Conveniently located on a quiet street at a reasonable distance to travel to and from the event center, things to do, and restaurants etc for a great price. Would definitely recommend and stay again.

Very close to Louisville!

Very quaint house. We just needed some Rooms for sleeping after exploring Louisville. Not within walking distance of anything, but everything was within a 10 minute drive. We were supplied with less than half a roll of toilet paper and zero paper towels but it wasn’t the end of the world. Beds were comfy and the house was clean!

Amazing Vacation

We attended a basketball tournament in Louisville. The house was 15 minutes from the venue. It met the needs of 6 adults. Enjoyed downtown Jeffersonville. I recommend this home for families and group. Looking forward to next year.

Wedding

We booked this house for family members coming in for a wedding in Louisville. It was a convenient location to be near Louisville but more affordable prices. Jeffersonville had all we needed for any shopping. The house could have been a little cleaner for our preference but was still comfortable. Overall it served our purposes

Looks are definitely deceiving.

It’s a very old house that has been remodeled to look good in photographs but it’s not that nice. I wouldn’t recommend staying here. It worked well for an inexpensive stay for work. Would rate it 5 out of 10. Hopefully you don’t mind squirrels in the attic.

perfect for our weekend meet on louisville campus

Our family needed a place to sleep, eat and relax when our 2 kids were not swimming on campus. We were driving in for the weekend and were unfamiliar with the downtown & campus areas of louisville - they seemed hit or miss for noise, location, etc - we looked at listings across the river and we're so glad we did. This house was perfect for our needs - each of our teens had their own room, we had plenty of food options in cute little Jeffersonville, and the drive to campus was short and easy. The house is not on a fancy street but it turned out to be safe, quiet and really well located which is exactly what we wanted. Overall communication/response was quick and helpful. Huge shoutout to Dana who was amazing. Best. host. ever.

One night layover.

It is a fine place to stay in Jeffersonville for a night. It’s an old house that was seemingly self renovated. It showed its age a little. We were there in the coldest possible weather (-6*F) and the lack of insulation in the floor was evident. But that’s an extreme temperature for the area. The neighborhood is not a nice location, but we didn’t feel unsafe either. It’s just and older house in a commercial area. We liked the open space and the water was nice and hot for a shower. For the price, it’s a good place to stay for a few nights. Owner was nice and communicated even when I was being frustrating I’m sure. I had a little confusion with the door code. But he never seemed irritated, though it would have been easy for him to have gotten irritated with me.
