Canary Cottage in the Heart of MainStrasse Village
Come enjoy this Urban Oasis. Just 2 minutes from Downtown Cincinnati in the heart of Covington's Mainstrasse Village. Enjoy the original character of the 1800's Victorian with modern amenities. Completely new kitchen with stainless steel appliances and copper countertops. New bathroom with classic finishes. This has front entry and direct access to Main Street/Mainstrasse Village. Within walking distance to local coffee shops, bars, and restaurants.
Love the neighborhood. Several interesting bars, shops and restaruants. Convenient to other Cincinnati attractions. Unit was well equipped, but could use some more furniture and decorations. Good value.
Good value compared to hotels in the area. Went for a Bengals game. It was a bit of a longer walk than we would have liked but that was expected. The main thing I look for in a VRBO is the safety of the area and cleanliness and this property was very good in both of these.
We absolutely LOVED our stay here! The location was perfect! We had a concert at PNC Pavilion on Friday night. We easily took an Uber to and from the concert. We enjoyed exploring all the shops and restaurants the area had! This unit is adorable and very spacious! The bed is huge, and so comfortable! We liked sitting in the front in the chairs people watching, lol. Super clean, has everything you need, can walk everywhere! We WILL book again!
We enjoyed our stay at the Canary Cottage. Aside from some general street noise at night, we loved the lively, artsy vibe from being right on Main Street. Plenty of restaurants and sights to see. The Vrbo had everything we needed for a lovely stay.
This home was just perfect for us. The fireplace and hardwood floors lent charm to this historic building. The neighborhood is walkable to downtown Covington and the area is full of character. We would definitely book again!
Perfect location , close to everything on mainstrasse, very clean, communication and details of wifi and the cide for the door very easy to get will stay there again this makes the 2nd time i have stayed at the property absolutely love it
Spent a long weekend to attend the 3-game Cubs series. Location was perfect - about a mile from the stadium but in a non-urban feel neighborhood. Lots of unique shops and dining options in the immediate area. Noise from the street a little loud at times.
It was nice and home-like. Comfortable and open. We enjoyed our stay. Modernized and cozy. Smelled a little musty but we bought an air freshener we left in the bedroom. I thought the shower head was way too hight for me to adjust but im short so i would have liked to see a removable shower head. Nice shops and taverns/bars right there that you can walk to, friendly nighborhood. Parking gets busy but as expected in an area like that
Location Location Location!! Awesome property directly on main-street. Arrived Saturday, had dinner and after able to park directly in front of unit.

Host communicated well w great arrival info prior to stayâŠdigital lock worked beautifully!On and on could go but better yet, highly recommend for your next stay in Cincinnati areaâŠin town for Riverbend concert over weekend and worked beautifully!!
The apartment is cute, getting in was easy, once in had everything we needed, clean for the most part (No top sheet on the bed, bottom sheet was on inside out, some stuff could have been wiped down better). The neighborhood was fun to explore but the parking was TERRIBLE. We have an f150 and it was sketchy at best getting around and finding parking. After exploring we got back both nights after 8pm and there was no parking anywhere near the apartment. Had to drive around forever and because it's a busy area parking far away seemed like a bad idea. The actual place is great though. Only major thing I would change is an extra chain lock/second lock on the door.
The property and location are very convenient and nice to stay at!
The property is nice, convenient to everything, and a reasonable price. The one bedroom is huge and comfy, bathroom is big, and it's definitely a nice place.
CONS: PROPERTY MANAGER LIVES ON SITE! There was a misunderstanding regarding a disturbance and my reservation was unexpectedly cancelled and I had to scramble to find a place to lay my head. The owner never spoke with me, he texted me the night before and said he got a noise complaint and asked them to keep it down, which we did.
The next day he texted us to vacate the premises at 7:30am and he never contacted me after that or spoke directly with me. I've never been evicted from an Air BNB and I've been using them since 2015 with NO complaints!
The property location is FABULOUS. We were comfortably within walking distance of anything in Covington. There were lots of restaurants and shops nearby. We were within reasonable walking distance of Cincinnati, too.
The unit is clean and updated. The bed was very comfortable and it was nice to relax and watch a movie in bed. The kitchen is well equipped. There is no dishwasher, but thatâs no big deal.
The one thing Iâd highly recommend to the owner is increasing the provided linens. There is no mat or towel for the bathroom floor, so we had to use a washcloth to step on outside the tub (which is obviously not sufficient). There were no kitchen wash rags provided, so we had to use a bathroom washcloth for dishes. There was a scrubby, but you also need rags to properly wash dishes. There were only two very thin kitchen drying towels and no drying mat for the dishes. Iâd recommend either a drying mat or more towels since there is no dishwasher. There were only two shower towels provided. While this is enough to survive, four would be more appropriate.
Overall, we were very happy with our stay and would definitely rent from this owner again.
Parking was difficult, there was construction the whole time we were there, noisy neighbor upstairs all week, there were beer bottles and cans around the front door when we arrived, there was hair in the tub, the bed was extremely uncomfortable. Would not recommend.
I stayed here because I was attending a conference in Cincinnati. I loved the location of this property. It is within walking distance of some very good restaurants/pubs. I enjoyed dinner at a different one each evening. The property was clean, and had everything I needed. If I had to have any cons then it would be the street traffic can be noisy at times through the night. I would definitely stay again if I needed to be in the area again.
