Great location!

The apartment is a great easy stay! Very clean and updated. The only thing I would say is the bed has a sunken in spot and makes it hard for two people to sleep in the bed. Just needs replacing. I will stay here again next year!!

Excellent property. Just a couple of minor items. Porch light inop, pocket door needs latch to close, and shower handle needs to be tightened.
Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2024
Response from VrboOwner on Dec 2, 2024
Thank you for your stay! Items that you mentioned? First, the porch light is of COURSE WORKING, the switch is in the kitchen area and NOT next to the door. Had you found it, you’d known. A handle loose in the bathroom? I guess if your a home inspector maybe, but any handles have been tightened by maintenance. A pocket door latch is a personal preference of yours, not one person has mentioned this or ANY of the items ever. Thank you!

Grandson's marriage

This was a sweet space. Two bedrooms but one had a futon. I used it as a dressing room. A nice kitchen and living room with 2 recliners and sofa. We were in the city limits of Shelbyville. Downtown was very quaint. We were not far from the wedding venue. Overall great stay. Oksana anwered all our questions and was always helpful. Thank you for making this visit so pleasant.

Everything was perfect except I had rented the two-bedroom because I had my grown daughter with me. She had to sleep on the couch because the futon wasn’t really suitable. I recommend placing a regular bed in the 2nd bedroom.

Cute little apartment, but could be made much better.

When we arrived, the property appeared clean and well-maintained; however, there was a terrible, permeating odor that was probably from strong smelling food that had been prepared in the small space. It was even in the bedding. No amount of air freshener could dissipate the odor. Also, the owners need to invest in a better mattress and pillows for the bed. It was very uncomfortable.

Response from VrboOwner on Sep 30, 2024
Amy, Thank you for your feedback. we'd already purchased another mattress for the unit, but thank you for pointing that out. We mentioned on our call to you that we were out of state and we were informed about a bad tenant that left just hours before you arrived. So if there was a smell, we'd been more than happy to address the situation if maybe you'd let us known about it.........Instead of finding out after the fact? Thanks
