Great for a large group

We stayed here for a large friend's weekend and the size/layout of the property was great to accommodate so many people while still giving a bit of privacy. Loved that there were several bathrooms on each floor (at least 1 per room) and the separate suite. The living spaces were also nice and spacious for all of us to be together. The location is walkable and everything we did was within a 5-10 minute drive which made it very convenient.

Bachelor Party

The house is huge and in a good location. It took a little bit to get our bearings because it’s a unique layout but it has plenty of space and if you are in the bedrooms you can’t hear if other people are awake or making noise which is nice for larger groups. The location is walking distance from most of what we wanted to do. There are a lot of people walking around and sleeping outside the front door but it was never threatening or anything like that. The owners were very responsive and helpful and overall the place was awesome.

Very large property with lots to offer

We stayed with 10 for a work trip. The location is right in the heart of downtown, which is great; however, that also comes with a significant number of homeless individuals very close to the property (including sleeping on our front step). The manager was very responsive and tried his best to help. Just know that you will be interacting with squatters right outside your door.

Great house, unique "neighbors"

House is central to everything you need by foot or scooter. Perfect set up inside for small or large groups. Make sure front door is locked at all times, as neighbors from the homeless shelter congregate on the front steps of the house.

Bourbon trial

Me and some friends visited the bourbon trail. The location of the house made it easy to visit the surrounding distilleries. We were also able to walk to 4th street live and even New Lou. The house reminded us of something from Alice and Wonderland, different rooms and doors through the house, we enjoyed learning the layout of the place. Everything was clean and organized and we enjoyed are stay.
