Cozy Brick house - 3 BR, 2 1/2 Bath, fenced in back yard with privacy fence.

10/10 Excellent

"This was a trip with myself, my grown daughter and her two dogs! This house is amazing!!! And Emily the host was fantastic!! They live next door so if we had any issues she was right there! Very pet friendly! The pups LOVED the fenced in back yard. We brought our own kennels but there are 2 kennels on site you can use! As well.as water/food bowls. We had stuff to do in Cincinnati and it was a easy drive everywhere we needed to go! We went to the Cincinnati zoo, took the pups to a Cincinnati Reds ball game (was bark in the park) and the Cincinnati museum! The beds are super comfortable! And there's everything from multiple types of shampoo to any utensils/cookware you need!!!!! Anytime we're traveling anywhere near Cincinnati this is our go to place if it's available! Make sure you read the info left on the counter! History of the house was fascinating! As well as where to go for pretty much anything!!!!!!"

Cozy 2BR Apartment, 5-10 Min to Cincinnati!

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was as listed. Stay was excellent. The property was very clean and organized. It is super close to shopping and restaurants. My only suggestions to the host would be to maybe consider blackout curtains for the main bedroom. People were coming and going all night long and the car lights shine right into the room. It woke me up quite a bit even with the blinds closed. My husband said the mattress was too firm for him, but I thought it was fine. I would suggest maybe an optional mattress toppe, or if someone plans to stay and you prefer a pillow top mattress, I would suggest bringing a topper. All in all we really enjoyed our stay and highly recommend staying here!"

Charming 3-bed church with natural light, historic charm in lovely Covington KY

10/10 Excellent

"This was our second time staying at this property, and we had another great experience! The host is friendly, responsive, and accommodating, and the property is beautiful, spacious, unique, well-stocked, and exactly as pictured! We will definitely be back again!"
