Felix was a great host! He was very attentive and quick to respond to communication. The home was in a great location. We were able to walk around the Louisville campus. Quick and easy drive to the Expo Center for a basketball tournament. I definitely recommend the Old Louisville Tavern for excellent non-chain food.

We had a wonderful 6 night stay and would absolutely recommend this property! This location was excellent, perfect for our trip to the Expo Center, with easy access to Churchill Downs, Cardinal, Stadium, and other nearby attractions. The host was fantastic. Even though we never needed anything during our stay, he checked in regularly to make sure everything was going well and was very responsive and welcoming. Parking is located behind the house. We drove a full-size pick up, and while it was alittle tight, it was definitely manageable. The neighbors were friendly, and we felt safe throughout our stay. House is as described. Beds were super comfy! Air conditioning worked great during the hot week! Overall, this was a great place to stay with an attentive host, a convenient location, and everything we needed. Would definitely recommend and we’ll stay again when we are in town.

Felix was very helpful when I needed to reach out to find the house (I typed the wrong address into GPS, not his fault in the slightest). The house was very comfortable and clean. My draw back was the lack of TV's in the bedrooms, I'm someone who is used to sleeping with the TV on. He does live upstairs, so occasionally you'll hear some noise above, but it was never to loud to be distracting and it wasn't late at night either. I'd stay here again if I'm in the area.

Perfect for our group of 3!

Came to Louisville with a couple friends to do some distillery tours and see the Slugger Museum and this place was PERFECT! Great location not far from Main Street and the house had 3 beds (2 in one room and one in the master). Communication with the host was great and I look forward to coming back!
