Amazing amenities, the host thought of everything. Parking was a cinch (especially coming from Los Angeles, I was blown away at the ease of street parking), and the apartment was cute and spacious.

Would recommend this property to any couple traveling to Louisville. It’s the perfect size for a couple, it’s extremely clean and very comfortable. The air conditioner works very well and the amenities are all that you need if/when we come back to Louisville, we would request this apartment again. Thanks to our host. We really enjoyed it!

The host was a very lovely lady and showed us around the apartment with instructions. No kitchen table but two nice stools at the kitchen bar. There is one nice armchair in the kitchen area with a tv above the little fireplace. This is a small area for one person. The bedroom is very large and the kitchen is not too small. The cons were the extremely steep, narrow staircase of 19 steps. The bathroom is very tiny. Only room for one person at a time. The king bed was way, way soft. Possibly was an older all foam mattress that sinks so low it’s difficult to turn over while in bed. If you have back issues this is not the bed for you nor the staircase while carrying up a suitcase! The house is in a great location. Only minutes from Churchill Downs and downtown/riverfront.
