Step Into the Winner’s Circle
From the moment you enter, you’ll be greeted by deep blue and gold tones, rich leather accents, and equestrian artwork that evoke the sophistication of Derby culture. The walls pay tribute to legendary horses, jockeys, and Louisville’s racing legacy, transporting you to the thunderous roar of the grandstands and the excitement of the starting gate.

A queen-size Tempur-Pedic Elite mattress offers luxurious comfort, ensuring you rest like a champion after a day of exploring. A flat-screen TV and elegantly designed sitting area invite you to unwind, perhaps with a mint julep in hand, while reliving historic Derby moments.

The fully equipped kitchen, with a stove, microwave, refrigerator, and Keurig coffee maker, lets you prepare Derby-inspired treats like a Hot Brown or Derby Pie, and the stackable washer and dryer ensure effortless long-term stays.

PETS/SERVICE ANIMALS/EMOTIONAL SUPPORT ANIMALS: Pets and Emotional Support animals are NOT allowed at this unit. We are aware of and fully comply with all local and federal regulations regarding Service Animals.

The online booking platforms require that we obtain written documentation of the lease as it pertains to service animals. This written documentation reads:

"Apartment management will authorize an assistance animal for a disabled person. When allowed by applicable laws, before we authorize an assistance animal, if the disability is not readily apparent, we may require a written statement from a qualified professional verifying the disability-related need for the assistance animal. If we authorize an assistance animal, we may require you to execute a separate animal and /or assistance animal addendum. Animal deposits, additional rents, fees or other charges will not be required for an assistance animal needed due to disability, as authorized under federal, state, or local law." In most cases we will not be able to accept service animals due to the Landlord/Lease exemption. In some cases where a service animal requires a specific function for a guest, the guest must participate in a screening process performed by apartment management. This screening MUST be scheduled with Apartment Management at least 30 days prior to check in. Written approval from Apartment Management must be obtained and given to the host prior to check in. This building may be shared by other tenants, cleaners, or other personnel who face direct health issues stemming from exposure to service animals.
