Great stay in Lexingtom

The house is clean, comfortable, and nicely stocked with paper products, soap, towels, etc. The location is very convenient to UK. We really enjoyed the restaurants at the end of the street. We appreciated the sound machines in the bedrooms, and the trains didn’t bother us much.Would definitely stay again.

Great space, noisy location

The house is in a convenient location, and the space, amenities, layout, everything about The Spot was comfortable except for the noise. The tracks are directly behind the property and the train noise itself isn’t so bad, but because the house is located near the intersection, the train whistle blows each time it goes by. The train is mentioned in the description, but I do wish I’d known it would wake me up multiple times each night.

Excellent location for all things Lexington

The Spot has a very homey feel and in a quaint area of Lexington. We did have a small hiccup later in the evening but the hosts corrected it as soon as possible, and that is why I am able to give an Excellent rating. The one thing that should be mentioned is being so close to the train tracks. Unfortunately, the trains run all night long and since the house is so close to a street intersection, they blow the horns. The hosts provide sound machines and fans for each room, which definitely help, but if you are light sleeper, you will want to bring ear plugs. The location is amazing to get around Lexington. We were able to walk to the stadium and many great restaurants are within 10 minutes. The hosts communication was attentive and made us feel valued.

CATS getaway

The house was very cute and nicely decorated. The upstairs AC did not work very well. The train was right behind the house and would run at least once an hour or more. If you are headed to Kroger field for the football games, it's in a great location.

Nearly perfect!

We’ve stayed in a lot of short term rentals and this property was by far one of the nicest! Beautiful remodel of an older home that is close to everything. Very well appointed. Great for our family of seven. Our only hesitation in making this our “Spot” when we visit home is the train traffic. In fairness, we knew there would be trains, but just didn’t expect the frequency or their horns as they approach the crossing at the top of the street. You don’t know ‘til you know!

Family Stay

This house was spacious enough for our family vacation. It was well equipped and very well decorated. Beds are also so very comfy! It's walking distance to a few restaurants and bakery. Aside from the train running behind the house, neighborhood is pretty quiet. I do have to mention that the train noise level is very high during the night. During our stay, it ran between 3-5 times during the night. If you're a light sleeper, reconsider booking this house. We also had a few dirty pans in the cabinets that cleaning crew missed. The kids really enjoyed feeding the fish and playing with the pine cones in the front yard.

Cousin's Trip

There were eight adults meeting for our annual cousin's trip. We wanted to see Lexington and the horse country. The house was centrally located to the places we visited. We enjoyed our walk down the street to the pub and grill where we met some of the neighbors from the area. The house was exactly as described and large enough for our group. It is a beautiful, remodeled home and was very clean. We enjoyed sitting in the backyard and the fishpond was a nice calming feature. The train is in the backyard and does go by very frequently. It will add to the memories from our trip to Lexington. Jen was very helpful when we contacted her before and during the trip.

We loved this house! It was perfect for our bourbon tasting trip. Jen was easy to reach when I was asking for a few coffee and restaurant recommendations. We ended up just walking to the restaurants at the end of the street both nights and enjoyed them both. The backyard was very relaxing with the koi pond. We will be back!
