This place is beautiful! Very comfortable! The communication with the hosts was amazing. Answered all of our questions within minutes. Very kind people too. The location was perfect. We can see the Capital Building from the front door and it’s a quick drive to K State. Easy parking too. I’ve already booked it again for my next trip to Frankfort!

Our Bourbon Adventure
This was an excellent place for my wife and I to stay. We were only in town for a couple days but, it was perfect. The Loft was exceptionally clean and cozy. The kitchen had wonderful natural light, the bed cozy and parking was easy. We were in close proximity to several distilleries that we were interested in visiting which suited our stay. If we are ever in the area again, we would definitely try to stay at The Loft again. Thank you Jason and Toni!

Bourbon Getaway
My husband and I came down for a little getaway and to do some "shopping". Found this on line and loved the pictures and description. Did not disappoint! Great location. Could walk to downtown restaurants and shopping. Place was clean and wonderfully decorated. The bed was very comfortable and the kitchen is brand-new and very well appointed. All the little extras in the bath and front hall were incredibly thoughtful. Communication with owners was easy and prompt. Would definitely stay again!

Perfection
Husband and I went for an extended weekend to the bourbon trail. Had everything we needed. Centrally located to many distilleries, walkable to town for lunch/dinner/drinks. Cleanest and cutest VRBO I have been in. Adorable walk out deck for evening drinks.
Look no further this place has it all. Jason and Toni are the best host, very reachable for any needs.
