I think it is a wonderful older home in a great location in Covington with easy access to everything including baseball games. It is an older home so when the neighbors move you hear it and when cars go by on the street you hear that too but overall it wasn’t that noisy. I would definitely stay here again the price was reasonable

Excellent location for quick access to food, coffee, and the highway. On street parking was never an issue, found a spot near the house at all times. No issues with door code or wifi access. Comfortable bed and excellent A/C system. Microwave was not working properly, minor issue. Bathroom door needs a little work for functionality purposes. Is a great stay for 1/2 people who will not spend much time in apartment. 9/10 overall

Charming cottage!

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.

Charming home

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!

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.

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.

Would Definitely Stay Again

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.

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!

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.

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

The bathroom toilet had feces in it when we arrived, all over the toilet and I had to clean it myself. I tried to contact the number on file and messaged the host. No return phone call or message. I called vrbo customer service the next morning and they contacted the host, he got on the phone with me then. I suggested I be compensated for cleaning the disgusting bathroom. The host did refund our money for one night, and I do appreciate that. The location was awesome, we had a nice stay otherwise.
