The house was great. They did a wonderful job remodeling the house. Love the old pine floors. In a great location. A short walk down to High Street with plenty of restaurants, shopping, etc, around. Or a short Uber/Lyft ride to any other restaurant or club. Airport is only 10/15 minutes with good traffic.

Perfect for work travel

The property is excellent for corporate travel. Clean, well stocked, and close proximity to the GCCC. Parking is the only caveat, as it can be tricky with multiple vehicles. Owners make it as easy as possible, are communicative, and give lots of direction. All in all, great property.

Perfect Location and a Beautiful Home!

We loved our stay here for the weekend! Such an amazing location! 2 block walk to the Short North area where there are tons of shops and restaurants. Walkable to downtown - 1 mile or a quick, inexpensive Uber ride. The kitchen was so well equipped with everything we needed. Beds were so comfortable. Master bath is spectacular. Great living room area with a large TV. We will stay here again!

We flew in from MT for a week long conference that was at the convention center. The house was perfect location. 1 mile from the venus and close to the airport. We will definately stay here again. The also had cars that we could rent that were less expensive than the one from Budget, and much less paperwork.

We came into town for an overnight to see a concert at the Nationwide Arena. This house was perfect for 3 couples. The walk to the arena was enjoyable as we stopped for snacks and drinks along the way. Was not far at all. We would definitely rent the house again if we were to be in columbus agsin.

Great place but horrible electronic door lock system.

The house and amenities were great. Everything was fine for first three days of a 6 day stay. On fourth the electronic door lock stopped working consistently. We had to the host several times on day 4 and day 5 to have them “remote” us into the unit. They said they’d have maintenance come to rectify problem They never came. At 4 am on 6th day we were returning from hospital at 4 am and was locked again. They had to remote us in once again we moved out and found a different unit for out night in Columbus.

Senior Siblings Together

My 3 siblings and I stayed in this property for 3 nights. It fit our needs perfectly, as we each had a very comfortable bedroom space and the 4 of us could gather in the kitchen, dining area and living room comfortably. We appreciated that so many restaurants and businesses were within walking distances. We enjoyed walking each morning to the beautiful park, just a few blocks away. Everything we wanted to see in Columbus was just a few minutes drive. The property is well appointed. We appreciated the noise machines in the bedrooms, as trucks did drive by in the morning. We enthusiastically recommend this property.

Great space and location

This location is amazing. You can walk a couple of blocks and be at all the restaurants and shops on the High Street. Just perfect. It's easy to pop on the interstate when you want to go somewhere else in town too. The house itself is a great option - we had plenty of space, comfy living room, extremely well-equipped kitchen (maybe the best in any house rental I've done, actually). And my favorite. the patio. I sat out there with my coffee in the mornings before it warmed up and it was delightful. I even liked sitting on the front porch stoop and watching the cars go by on the busy road, though I may just be weird on that one. Cute decor, including interesting artwork that I believe was done by one of the owners, so that made it fun. I didn't have need to communicate with the hosts, but the system worked great and I had what I needed. Their check-out instructions were clear and reasonable (not as onerous as some places I've stayed). Now - the minor things that I think people might need to consider. There is a fair amount of street noise (I love general traffic noise personally, but I know some don't). The ONLY thing that was a problem for me personally might not be an issue for others - the upstairs was too hot for me to sleep there, even turning the A/C to the lowest temp in the range the owners request (68) at night. I decided to sleep in the downstairs bedroom and was fine there. I'm hot-natured, so take that for what it's worth. As long as I could have the downstairs bedroom (or it was a cooler time of year), I would definitely come back and stay there again. That was the only negative for me at all - loved it!

Why they chose this property

We bought this fixer upper in 2011 and completely renovated the house to the studs. This pre-1890s house is completely new on the inside. Sadly, the only original features of the home that remain are the pine wood floors and fireplaces. Most features of the home were gone before they purchased the home. On the positive side, you enjoy a relatively new home on the inside of a historic one!
