Simply Amazing

The property was every bit as awesome as the description!! It’s not very big, but it doesn’t claim to be. However, Frances has filled that space with everything we needed and a beautiful touch of coziness and style. My wife and I have to come to Columbus once a year and we are so glad that we found such an amazing place close to where we need to be during the day. Thank you!!

Perfect space for what we needed!

My teen daughter and I were in town for a volleyball tournament at the Columbus convention center and this spot was perfect! Walking distance to the center and near several great restaurants. Although it’s small, it had everything we needed. Comfortable bed, living area, perfectly sized table to eat at, small kitchen space and getting ready area. Check in was super easy and the directions were very clear and easy to follow. The host was extremely attentive and responsive before and during our stay. Highly recommend!

Location location location

We travel down from Cleveland for a wedding. It was at the Ellis, which is a five minute walk from the carriage house. We came in the night before to enjoy the short north. Just a five minute walk in the other direction. We never moved our car the whole weekend.The carriage house is nicely appointed with a comfortable bed and sitting area. It felt very secure, and was easy to find.

Exceptional communication and service

What a special treat in finding this carriage house. The location and property are perfect. We came in to town to watch some football, but because of the location, we were able to enjoy all of short north and the arena district. So much better than a hotel. Everything you need is included, and if you need something else, the owners will immediately take care of it. We can’t wait to come back. Thank you!

Very well decorated & clean. Quiet, quaint neighborhood. Lots of stairs, which I didn’t mind. Only the last night did I have any noise from garage below, but thankfully the banging & door opening & closing ended by 11pm. I was able to walk or take a scooter to the convention center with several great restaurants along the way. Great, reasonably priced stay!

Great place to stay!

The property was very nice and quiet. It is behind a house that I believe can also be rented out, but it was not rented when I was there so that was nice. It is above a garage so it got a little warm, but nothing unbearable. It’s a really nice location, a cute neighborhood and convenient parking! I would stay here again.

Doing a lot of traveling, 2-3 weekends most most, this was the most thoughtfully laid out and stocked small space I’ve stayed in. Loved all the kitchen gadgets and supply of coffee, creamer, and clean towels. Only wish the listing indicated that it was a second floor unit so I could’ve packed differently.
