The host made it easy!

This adorable house was the perfect location for our one-night stay in Columbus. We were there for a very sad reason: our beloved brother-in-law/uncle was in hospice and we were there to say goodbye. It is a rare VRBO that doesn’t have a list of to-dos before checkout. But the 5th Street Retreat messaged me that we didn’t need to do a thing as we were leaving. I can imagine staying at this property for football weekends or visiting your kids at OSU

Perfect

A super cute house! Clean and nicely decorated. Updated kitchen and bathrooms. My boyfriend and I were in town for a tour of Echo Distillery. The house was big enough for all 6 of us for the weekend. Great location too! Close to lots of bars and restaurants … and a Kroger.The listing said there’s a garage, but we couldn’t find it. Not a big deal though. There is parking for two cars in the alley behind the house, and on street parking in the front.

Nice place

On a 1-10 I give it an 8. What would make it a 10? ( I stay at a lot of vrbos)-fix fridge ice/water dispenser, put tissue box in restrooms, put hooks in bathroom for towels, robes, clothes, put dresser or tables in bedrooms to put stuff on, get a colander in kitchen, add some wine glasses.

Halfway meeting place for the Holiday

Overall, we had a good stay. Would have liked more seating in the main room, as we were 6 adults and 2 dogs staying there. The backyard is nice, though someone went out with the dogs every time as there were several gaps in the fence that a skinny wiggly 40 lb dog could slip through. Several low maintenance tasks were noted and mainly did not interfere with our fun. Quiet neighborhood near plenty of places. Thanks for the hospitality.

Bought us a pack n play

Drove in from chicago for a family party. Loved the centralized location of the house and the very comfy beds. Traveled with my 3 year old and 11 moth old. House was suppose to supply us with a pack n play but apparently it was missing so the home owner went and bought us a new pack n play to use for the stay. We greatly appreciate this. Thanks for being such great hosts.

Great house for OSU football

Clean property with plenty of room. Owner was responsive and checked on us during our stay, even letting us check in early. Only critique would be the fourth bedroom on listing is actually a basement with a trundle bed. Great location to walk to campus and bars/restaurants in North Short District. Would highly recommend a stay here!
