Disliked: Cleanliness
Preston Retreat is cute and very convient access to the KY Expo Center. Had great hot water and air conditioning. However, it was dirty (hair clogging drain in the tub) Dryer didn't work. Washer was questionable. Lacking outlets for electronics. Outdoor barbeque area not usable.

Quaint home in perfect Louisville location

This home was perfectly situated near the University, I-65, a park next door and near Germantown..allowing us opportunity to explore beautiful Louisville easily. The rooms were clean, AC cool and lighting was good. The owners were quick to respond to a couple of minor issues that were resolved.

It was a place to sleep

It was a place to sleep. Unfortunately they did not have bedding for the pull out bed. We had to go buy some. The home itself is really cute but not well kept, the toilet didn’t work unless you reset the float every time. The washer and dryer didn’t work either, I had to restart it several time to get it to finish one load. Closet doors are all broken. The neighborhood is not one I would choose to stay in the future.

Dirty, no hot water for days, dishonest owner

We had no hot water for days due to the pipes not being insulated well and the water freezing. Neither toilet had running water, so the only way to flush was to slowly fill up the tank with pots of water and manually flush. There was also dirty paw prints all over the bathroom from a rodent that clearly lived in the wall that had a big chewed out hole. The owner said it was squirrels. The rest of the place wasn’t cleaned well either. When the owner responded, he sent some guys out to fix the pipes, and said it was done, but there was still no water at all in one of the bathrooms. After blasting the wall with a heater for a few days, we finally got water. The owner promised us a discount for the huge inconvenience, but after contacting him multiple times over the past 3 weeks about getting the discount, he has not responded at all. I own a vacation rental that I list on VRBO and I would never treat my guests like this.
