Host was very responsive to any issues we had. The driveway is extremely steep and on a SLIGHTLY busy road. All the rooms are on the same level and there's even an area to do business/work if needed.
The house was beautiful. The neighborhood was quite. Inwould recommend anyone stay here

We are thrilled you have stayed in one of our Grand Welcome homes and would love to invite you back in the future. Please let us know what we can do to make your stay even better for next time!
Very clean and spacious with a fully equipped kitchen and very comfortable living room, and bedrooms. Thanks for your hospitality and making us so welcome.
We enjoy the home. Spacious enough for everyone to be comfortable. I would say it was a 7.5/10 only because of areas that need attention. Sectional needs a good cleaning and isn’t very comfortable. Bedroom on left has visible stains and mattress not comfortable at all. Otherwise we made the best of our weekend and enjoy our annual festivities. I would recommend for future trips to Cincinnati.
Beautiful home!!! Description is accurate, driveway is very steep. The only downside was alot of cobwebs on front porch , ridnt geel comfortable sitting outside for morning coffee and tvs are very outdated. They are older smart tvs and can only support netflix. Only local channels for majority of my stay luckily we were gone and we brought ps5 tht we used i stead. Nevertheless great property, great communication and would definitely book again
We had an amazing stay to celebrate parent's weekend with our student at UC. It made it very relaxing and a home atmosphere to make dinners and chill away from campus for a bit. So cozy, so clean. We would definitely stay here again.

We appreciate you taking the time to review your stay with us! The Grand Welcome team hopes to host you again in your future vacation endeavors, either here or one of our many locations across the US!
We were in town for the home opening game of UC and to support our son! The house was perfect for our needs. We will be back for most home games and hope the house is available as we will definitely book again!
We try to get as close as possible to the raceway each year, this property has been the closest yet! Loved the home! Just wish the driveway was a bit longer for the trailer to park comfortably! Overall, the house itself is so spacious and cozy!

House gives "tired" vibes; it's clearly not a place that anyone cares about because the same minor issues mentioned in reviews from over a year ago exist. Side note - I use VRBO (emphasis on OWNERS) for a reason but this property is either owned or managed by a large for-profit rental company whose property tax bills get sent to another large company in California and I would not have rented from them if I had known that in advance.Be aware the driveway is no joke and it's on a busy road.Snow storm and unusually low temps made our weekend interesting and we were unable to safely leave for over 24 hours. While I realize many people would not want to clear snow at a VRBO, the lack of even a basic snow shovel and salt or sand meant treacherous conditions over which we had no control. I asked about our snow removal status 3 times in the 24 hours leading up to check out. It was still not clear when we left.
We had a wonderful and restful stay We had a few issues One of the beds was not as comfortable as the other two..The sofa wasn’t very comfortable and the remote wasn’t very responsive to the TV ..I know this doesn’t sound great..But regardless we had a wonderful stay.. It was my first time in an Air B&B ..and We would stay here again ..It was close to all we wanted to do
This house is just how it appears in the listing, with great spaces for hanging out together or for getting a little "me time" if needed. Loved the layout, all the comfy seating, and the privacy (surrounded on 2 sides by trees, neighboring house a distance away). Cleanliness and communication with the property manager/host were superb. The only areas for improvement were some small stains on the bedroom carpet and mattresses that should probably be replaced soon due to wear. But I would definitely stay again! Note: the driveway is very steep (not uncommon in Cincinnati) and light sleepers beware of loud road noise.
There was plenty of room for our group of 6 people. The house was modern and well equipped. There was not whole lot of usable outside space for picnicking.
The front porch was very nice for having coffee in the morning. The neighborhood was reasonably quiet and we had no trouble sleeping.
The home was spacios and clean. All tech is dated versions of high end brands of a few years back meaning outdated, large remotes with too many buttons trying to operate tvs that want to do everything except allow current viewing options.

The property was very nice. The driveway was very steep and difficult to get our handicap friends into. The beds were very comfortable. I was not given instructions on how to adjust or change the thermostat from cooling to heating but finally figured it out.
It’s a beautiful home we just wished the couch more comfortable

During stay property manager could've call or visit. Many things can't be understood by reading only. Master bedroom was okay. Other 2 rooms mattress are compromised. Pillows are there but no choices of hard & soft. Less vessels for Asian cooking. CCCCommon areas sofa
Property was well suited for our six family members. Would stay at this property again. The house is located on a main road so there is some traffic noise until around 10 pm or so. The driveway is steep, was easy to make it work by driving into the driveway and backing onto the concrete pad that is poured off of the main driveway. House is within 10 minutes of Paycor Stadium and Great American Ballpark.

This property is close to many Cincinnati sites we went to zoo and also Oktoberfest. Driveway is steep but with one car we were able to turn around no problem. There are outside sensors and at night something kept tripping them and lights came on and off all night. Not really too bad. Very comfortable would stay again.
