This loft was in a really great location, and had everything you could need for a comfortable stay. Very practical, but keep in mind there isn't much privacy if you have both rooms occupied, and the noise carries through the walls, so just something to be aware of. Overall, a very comfortable and nice stay.

Liked: Cleanliness
The property was nice, but we wouldn't stay there again. Location is convenient but not as centrally located as the description would suggest. The entrance is very strange as you have to travel down 2 long hallways. There is a lot of deferred maintenance that distracts from the stay, including a broken mirror door in one bedroom. Our major complaints include the excessive noise from the adjoining property due to the apparent lack of insulation between the properties, the open ceiling above the bedroom which exposed us to excessive noise from the air handler, small size of the second bedroom, and the lack of any place to put luggage except the floor in that same bedroom. Beds were comfortable but very low to the ground.

The loft is a cool space and had all the amenities and comforts listed. Beds were super comfortable with clean fresh cozy bedding. The location is within walking distance to the Yum center, Jimmy John’s, wild eggs and the riverfront area. I’d recommend arriving in the daylight as the building entrance was hard to spot and the hallways felt a bit dark arriving alone at night.

We enjoyed our stay at Whirlaway Loft. The location is great. It's a short walk to Old Forester and Repeal and just a little further to Louisville Slugger and the Frazier Museum. Parking is really convenient. The building is older, so there were a few small issues encountered. Sean was extremely responsive, though. The interior is clean and the decorations were nice. It took us a minute to get used to no ceilings separating rooms. Would stay here again for convenience.

Highly recommend this place

We stayed here when we had our first trip planned to Churchill Downs. Before we headed downtown we noticed the air kicked off and the touch screen thermostat in the hallway went black. I text the host about it because it was 98 degrees outside and before we got back from downtown Sean had the AC fixed and cool inside! He sent us a text that it was back on and apologized for the inconvenience. It didn't inconvenience us in anyway because we were in town anyway but we were very impressed with the speed of getting it fixed. The pictures of the apartment were exactly as the apartment. It was clean and beautiful. He had all the towels, toiletries, pans, utensils, coffee and games at your convenience. We would definitely stay again!

This loft is the perfect location for those coming to Louisville to experience the truly diverse vibe. Our VRBO was in the heart of so many dining, drinking and entertainment options within walking range. At the same time, a building and courtyard in front of our loft added great noise insulation. Very convenient parking is available at no cost. The loft itself is very welcoming and comfortable. Everything needed is there and the beds are comfy (especially after a guided bourbon tour). Our host was exceptional in his communications and support. This stay earns 20 stars on a 10-point scale!!!
