    We had a fantastic experience staying at this beautiful historic home in downtown Louisville. The house itself is impeccably clean, tastefully furnished, and full of character—exactly what you'd hope for in a historic property. It was also incredibly comfortable and spacious, easily accommodating our team of seven, with everyone enjoying their own separate space to relax and recharge.The host was outstanding—extremely responsive and kind throughout our stay. We had a small hiccup with parking (which was due to an external factor and not the host’s fault), but it was addressed quickly and professionally. We truly appreciated the level of care and communication.The location couldn’t be better—close to all that downtown Louisville has to offer, while the house still provided a quiet and peaceful retreat at the end of each day. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a unique and comfortable stay in the city!

    We had a group of 12 of us stay and everyone couldn’t stop commenting at how large and convenient the space was. Very close to all of the major attractions and would definitely stay here again.
    8.0 / 10.0
    We stayed with 10 for a work trip. The location is right in the heart of downtown, which is great; however, that also comes with a significant number of homeless individuals very close to the property (including sleeping on our front step). The manager was very responsive and tried his best to help. Just know that you will be interacting with squatters right outside your door.
