I do love to party but this is a boutique loft with 17 condo owners, most of which are the quiet type.
The neighbors are family and do look out for each other. There is a building noise ordinance of 10 P.M. on weekdays and 11 P.M. on weekends.

This loft was the perfect place for our visit to Louisville. It was so clean and had everything anyone might need. The directions, while lengthy, were clear and easy to follow. I can’t recommend it enough.

New Year’s Eve Perfect!

Justin was an excellent host and provided accurate and precise instructions for check-in and parking. His loft was perfectly located for our New Year’s Eve experience at Fourth Street Live! The loft was a beautiful space with unique features including a lovely balcony space, a record player with a variety of classic records, and a historic building. We loved our stay here!

Excellent downtown apartment

Communication from owner was detailed and timely. Amenities such as cold water bottles in the fridge upon arrival were greatly appreciated. Check out process was easy, no complicated instructions like I’ve run into at other rentals. Had no issues accessing the parking garage. Only downside was that planes landing at the airport seem to fly right overhead while we were trying to get to sleep.

Great for history and adventure!

The location was great -- we needed to spend four days at the convention center and were delighted to find that 4th Street is primarily for pedestrians! My kids' friends asked if we would join them at an escape room, and we were pleasantly surprised to see it was right across the street. It took us a full day to discover the building's front door and that was much more comfortable than entering through the alley. The apartment itself was lovely -- we didn't have to eat out a single time because the kitchen allowed us to cook full meals. Be sure to check out the Seelbach Hilton down the street -- you can walk inside to watch a video detailing the fascinating history of the building.

This is the second time we have stayed at one of Justin’s properties. Like the previous time; the property was spectacular and location was perfect. It’s within walking distance of anything you could want or need. We will definitely be back to stay at one of his properties again.

Bourbon Trail Stop in Louisville!

This loft was very clean, and it had a ton of space! The location is kind of difficult to find on your own; however, the host was very communicative, responsive and kind! The location is also a fun area to stay in Louisville
