If you're looking for a unique place to stay in Louisville, KY, then look no further than this bed and breakfast. Rich and Brian are two of the most fantastic hosts, as well as being genuinely kind humans, and their goal is to make your stay as comfortable and as enjoyable as possible, while making a genuine effort to get to know and connect with their guests. The inn is gorgeous, having been recently remodeled and updated while still maintaining touches of history and preserving the uniqueness that the building deserves. The rooms themselves are immaculately clean and beautiful, with a plethora of little personal touches and amenities. This is a TRUE Bed and Breakfast, with breakfast offered every morning. Guests get to choose from a menu of several delectable dishes, and are also offered freshly baked bread and jam made in-house with their morning meal. The owners even ask ahead of time if your party has any food sensitives, allergies, or dietary needs, and this is truly so thoughtful. This inn is a hidden gem in an industry full of monotony and cookie cutter hospitality, and was such a breath of fresh air to visit while on our trip in Louisville. We plan on visiting Louisville annually, and will never stay anywhere else when we're in town!
