This property was absolutely perfect for our stay! The property is centrally located with no more than 3 to 5 mile radius from everything that we had planned for the weekend which was great! The property is very well maintained with everything that you need for a very comfortable stay! Ms. Elizabeth was very helpful in assisting us with accessing the property! Access to the property could be clearer in specifying that entry to the third floor apartment is via that gate on the side of the property after removing the key from the lockbox. Ms. Elizabeth responded to me in a timely manor, and even had her neighbor come over to assist us. We will most definitely stay at the property again when returning to the Northern Kentucky/Cincinnati area. 10/10 Definitely Recommend!

Everything was as it was stated on the property listing. The kitchen had everything you needed in order to cook and eat. The bed was comfortable, the indoor temp was good, great water heater with reslly good pressure, and the place was very clean and well stocked. The owner is very sweet and fantastic at communication. The backyard is very nice with the koi pond, the seating area, etc. I will definitely be going back in the future.

Fantastic stay, couldn't ask for more, Elizabeth, the host showed me around. She is very gracious and goes the extra mile every step of the way. The location is central to everything, easy to get around, even if just walking within Covington, the walk to Cincinnati isn't even all that bad. Very nice home with more than ample space, an old home that has been revitalized, very beautiful, highly recommended!

The apartment was very cute and felt very relaxing. Just like home. The location was excellent for access to Riverbend and Newport on the Levee. We also went to Molly Malones for dinner and live music (it was also excellent!) I would highly recommend this location and host!

Clean spaces. Coffee maker didn’t work. Attic in very old home, so was very drafty with little insulation. On street corner, a lot of traffic noise. Had problems getting access to property. Neighbor had to help me. No silverware in kitchen. Lovely old home that felt like a ghost house to me.

Thank you for the review. We would like to clarify that some of your statements are not accurate. Our home is regularly maintained, cleaned and inspected. It is not a noisy property and it is fully equipped including silverware for guest’s use. We have not received similar complaints by other guests. The comment about being a “ghost house” Has no basis and is maybe a misunderstanding. We encourage future guests to read our other reviews for a more accurate picture of our property.
