It was very difficult to get my things to the room. I had to park about a block away and take the stairs down to street level (no elevator), walking through pee smellong stairs past a homeless person. Then had to go up more stairs to my room (no elevator). This was very difficult for me with a bad back. The room was 65 degrees, and I received a message from the host not to touch the HVAC in CAPS. That seems like they're yelling at guests to keep the room cold. The room itself was nice, and the price was reasonable.

A super cool loft well laid out and very hip. Bed was wonderful and I would recommend this place for anyone visiting Frankfort. Great location for exploring this beautiful old school charming town. Or if you’re starting your bourbon tour. You guys did a great job on layout and function with a nicely appointed kitchen and of course the most comfy bed. This is a must stay spot for all visitors. See you again soon I hope.

Fabulous boutique hotel. Great location in the upmarket town of Frankfort. Lots of bars, restaurants and coffee shops in directly area. Lobby area is linked to a great bar restaurant downstairs…. Can park outside on quiet side road between 5pm to 10am overnight but other car parking not far. A very special small town with lots of old charm and character the hotel is perfect for people seeking this…

Check in was a bit difficult because there is no staff. and you were supposed to pre check in like an Air B&B. It was a good thing the people at the bar were able to help. The room was wonderful.

Upon arrival our original room hadn't been cleaned. I sent a text to their number and received an immediate response. They were very apologetic and assigned us to another room right away! Customer service is top notch! We absolutely loved the room! The bed is so comfy and linens smelled nice and fresh. The building is very secure. I don't think there's much worry about that though because the neighborhood seemed really clean and friendly. This will be my to go place when we visit Kentucky! Thank you for a pleasant stay!

Property was very nice. Couple of recommendations - add a table lamp into the 2nd bedroom, with no window its very dark to only have an overhead light. - wd 40 the bedroom doors - leave a spare roll of bathroom tissue ours was almost empty when we arrived with no spare - I sent a txt about this and never received a response - provide tissues

The room was decent, could use a good cleaning. What is seriously lacking is insulation!! The rooms are so incredibly loud. I could hear every footstep and word from above, the band playing below in the bar until late, street noise, etc. Definitely not for anyone who needs sleep. I wouldn't stay again.
