Great location!
Couldn’t have been located better! We were able to walk to dinner twice and see one of the most eclectic parts of Louisville by being on Bardstown Rd, all while having a quiet stay.
The room had everything we needed and was easy to get in and out of!

Loft above garage
Small loft above a garage. Seemed to be a nice neighborhood until I woke up in the morning and found my car was stolen. Message property manager about information for police but no cameras in the alley you have to park in

Very quaint
Very quiet and clean. Nona be to enjoy beautiful weather as the yard is not shared. Garage door opening under you is really loud so there is no sleeping in cone 8:00 am. Did cross paths with owner and she was very kind . Accommodated my hurricane stay extension and thankful for that
