A Great Stay in Old Louisville

I had a great time staying at this property, which was well-situated for my needs, well-furnished and clean. I'm an anxious traveller and so particularly appreciated how easy it was to communicate with the hosts, who were very responsive and keen to help. Will certainly stay here again if I need to return to Louisville!

a real gem in the historic district

Super clean and organized accommodation, in a lovely area. The design is amazing, the shower outstanding, beds and pillows are really comfortable. This was the perfect place to enjoy a long weekend in Louisville - the location was a few minutes from so many fun restaurants, and distilleries, and especially the Conrad/Caldwell House Museum (just steps from the front door) stay here for a laid back vibe and experience historic old Louisville in all it's glory.

Lovely apartment in historic Old Louisville

If you love historic districts in cities, this apartment is for you. It is well-appointed and conveniently located to many Louisville attractions. It is especially great if you want to be near the University of Louisville or the downtown distilleries. For us it was a great location to visit relatives off Bardstown Road and in Southern Indiana.
