Overall great stay. Accommodated our family nicely. We weren’t aware there was so many stairs as we had elderly staying with us. But that may have been on us not paying as much attention to description. Close to campus and convenient.

Thank you for your review! We’re glad the home accommodated your family well and that you enjoyed the convenient location near campus. Our home is a multi-level property with bedrooms and the kitchen located upstairs, so we understand the stairs may be challenging for elderly guests or those with mobility concerns. We appreciate your feedback and would be happy to welcome you and your family again!

Spotless home and top-tier hospitality!This was hands-down the best rental experience we’ve ever had. The house was very clean, came equipped with everything we needed and more. The fantastic game setup was such a fun bonus for our family. The host's kindness is what truly made our weekend. When she heard we were driving long distance to support our daughter through a tough semester, she went above and beyond to ensure we had a wonderful time. We are so grateful and highly recommend this place!

Enjoyed the stay!

Tamara was very prompt getting back to us, and the house was stocked with small snacks plus other nice surprises/ gestures, just exactly what we needed when first arrived after a long trip. Location by University of Cincinnati made it convenient to explore.

This was an excellent rental that was large enough for my friends and colleagues, all while being in a perfect distance away from the University. The host was gracious and very helpful, and overall really made the stay wonderful. I would recommend this host to anyone visiting Cincinnati, and if we’re ever back we’ll be sure to look here again.

The size and layout of the space was absolutely spectacular for my family, I appreciated the attention to detail in keeping it well stocked, which meant it was less for me to pack or purchase while I was there and allowed more time for me to be able to enjoy time with visiting family. The space had plenty of games to keep our kids happy and occupied, and the extra blankets and space heaters around the space were fantastic. The host was lovely to work with and made us feel very welcome. I would absolutely book this property in the future.

This location was so convenient for our itinerary while visiting Cincy. We visited Newport Aquarium, Cincinnati Zoo, & CMC which were all just a short drive from the property. The house was clean and the amenities provided were beyond our expectations. My 6 year old was obsessed with the arcade game. Tamara provided thorough instructions for check-in/out and there were helpful reminder throughout the house. It was nice to have off-street parking. 10/10. Highly recommended!

Home for the holiday!

First of all, Tamara was great. She was responsive and so accommodating. My three adult children, my daughter's partner, myself and my 7 year old granddaughter gathered to spend some time together during the holiday. With my daughter and granddaughter living in Detroit, we don't have many opportunities to spend nights together. We were able to play karaoke, made brunch, played board games, watched movies and just generally enjoy each other. The space was conducive to our tiny gathering, but also to additional people if we had desired. It was clean and spacious. There was even a short period of time , that my granddaughter could go outside and swing on the swingset, in the middle of December.

Perfect Home Base

We drove from Delaware to stay at Tamara’s urban retreat while moving our 18-year-old into his University of Cincinnati dorm. The house is perfectly located with lots of cool spaces and thoughtful touches that made it the perfect home base for our family during this trip. Tamara stocked the place for us with all travel essentials such as toilet paper, toothbrushes, toothpaste, mouthwash, lotion, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, a fully stocked kitchen including dish soap and paper towels, laundry supplies, and extras like snacks, coffee, creamer cups, and even a bottle of wine. There are throw blankets all around, which my other, who is always freezing, really appreciated. We enjoyed the PacMan machine and other games. TVs in each room. Free parking in the driveway, back of the house, and on the street. Walkable to restaurants, UC. Quick drive downtown and to Newport. Tamara’s communications were excellent. Really so much better than getting multiple hotel rooms and paying daily parking rates per car.
