The building is located in a well-lit retail corridor, ideal for guests arriving late, heading out for the evening, or returning from a long hospital shift. The main entrance remains locked 24/7, and each apartment features its own keypad-secured deadbolt for an added layer of safety and security.

Start your morning with a quiet cup of coffee in the fully equipped kitchen. Walk to UK Hospital or UK Chandler Medical Center in just minutes.

Great place to stay

Stayed here for 10 days in March. The location is convenient for getting around Lexington and close to restaurants and UK. Despite being close to a busy highway, it is surprisingly quiet and peaceful. Great parking.The Shawarma Lex truck next door is fantastic!
