"An historic and nicely renovated property, w/expected amenities except for non functioning tv in 1st floor master. Contacted host on arrival night re TV issue, and to report a light shade in master w/evidence older damage -- no reply to my message re either concern. Bed in master extremely comfortable, and HVAC perfect even during extreme heatwave. Kitchen well stocked. Sofa in living room not for sitting -- historic but has outlived its time. All living areas very well cleaned. Dispensers for hair products not working but host left adequate shampoo and conditioner, along w/ a great supply of fluffy bathtowels-- generous # Overall, location just excellent. Neighborhood good for walking."

"We had a wonderful experience at this property. It's a great location with short walks to Rupp Arena and the downtown area. There was an issue with one AC unit when we arrived and the owner was there within 15 minutes and had a technician on property shortly thereafter to fix the issue. Great response! The kitchen was very well stocked with everything we needed. I would definitely stay here again if we returned to Lexington with a group."
