Stayed here for Railbird!

Amazing and really pretty location. Downtown and Railbird were both walkable and fun.Hosts have made an incredible use of space. The shower is a bit odd, but if that is my biggest complaint, well I knew that going in. Would totally stay here again. LOVED it!

Perfect, fun and funky

Thoroughly enjoyed this artsy little apartment where we could enjoy walking in downtown Lexington. So many nice touches - real plants, art, coffee and snack bars. Hosts were very responsive for another excellent vrbo stay! Bonus that it was available for a one night stay on our extended road trip.

Nice location

The apartment was clean and furnished nicely. We only stayed one night and were able to walk to a few bars/restaurants. Things to note: the staircase to the apartment is steep and narrow, and the beds have extra firm mattresses.

Great location

A friend and I were in Lexington for a concert at Rupp arena, and it was in walking distance. Nice location close to a bunch of restaurants and bars. Very clean. And I agree with other reviews in that the shower is not made for tall people. It definitely has character.

Cute apt downtown

We loved the apt. The only downside was the bathroom. The shower is more of a tub so none of our group showered. The sink is small and dated. The rest of the apt is delightful and eclectic! Our group especially appreciated the cleanliness of the unit. It met all of our needs as we only stayed the one night.

Great place with historical character

This was a perfect place to stay! We were passing through Lexington to split a long drive home from vacation. We only stayed one night, but my family agreed this would be a great apartment to stay for a longer visit to Lexington. Location was wonderful and I appreciated the historical designation for the neighborhood. Street parking worked out great! Beds were comfy and the laundry detergent they use makes the towels and sheets smell amazing. It’s a renovated attic space so there are lots of angled walls and nooks and crannies giving it some character. Great artwork on the walls and hung low (due to the wall angles) which added to the fun. Owners very responsive and friendly.

About the host

Hosted by Haviland and John

Host profile image
We're both Kentucky natives. Haviland is from Cynthiana, and John is from Lebanon. We rented an apartment in the house for several years and bought it in the summer of 2016 because we found it charming and also knew it would be challenging. It was in a state of disrepair when we bought it, and almost every area in the house had critical issues to address. We spent 18-months doing an intense DIY renovation to make it as inviting and comfortable as we can for our guests. We're still making minor adjustments and improvements almost daily, and it's become more of a passion now than work.

Why they chose this property

This particular apartment is within a historic house in a residential neighborhood near Downtown Lexington. It is in walking distance to bars and restaurants, and the owners live next door at 321 and are almost always available if-needed.

What makes this property unique

This home has many unique features, from the gingerbread moulding on the porch, to the hardwood floors inside. We purchased it from a friend who purchased it from a friend. We are constantly working to make it even better. Our favorite space is probably the backyard which is shared with all 3-apartments in the house.
