5 Star Reviews from our past guests:
"This is a small apartment located just off Bardstown Road. It is a great location with access to restaurants and other activities. While we occasionally heard noise from the street, considering the area we found it to be fairly quiet. The apartment is small but practical and well laid out. We enjoyed using the kitchen and had a very nice stay."
"I stayed at Nicholes for a quick weekend trip and it was the perfect place for my partner and I! In a great, walkable neighborhood with tons to do and see. Her place was easy to find, checkin was a breeze and it was so well organized and cleaned. We felt right at home! Additionally, she was a great host providing thorough instructions and proactively communicating with us. Would absolutely stay with her again in the future!"
"Great place, location, host, and amenities! Everything in the description is accurate. I especially appreciated the special touches like super comfy sofa and excellent tv service, great little kitchen with the amenities listed, very nice bathroom with a soaking tub and luxurious towels, and a comfy bed. Nichole is extremely helpful and responsive to all communications. And she really does mean it when she says the place is steps away from many good restaurants, bars, and shopping. The neighborhood is very fun and walkable. This was my first trip to Louisville, and I enjoyed the city immensely, including this wonderful little home away from home."
Other Details to Note: ^Noise/Foot traffic: (It is significantly quieter and calmer in the winter months) We are best suited for those who want to adventure and take advantage of the location, not those looking for a quiet night on a weekend. Being so close to everything, the house is located on a busy street with a lot of people passing by. Sound machines are provided in each bedroom. You will likely hear some of the hustle and bustle of the neighborhood throughout your stay in the unit and may come across some locals on your walks to tour the town. On weekend nights you will hear cars and people outside, but that is the tradeoff for being in the heart of all the action!
^Parking: Free street parking. On weekends in the late afternoon/evenings street parking may sometimes be full right outside the building. However, there is ample street parking around the block. [While you are not supposed to, my family and I parked for a year with no issues in the triangle marked area by the telephone pole and dumpster (we are not responsible if you get towed)]
^TV: Has Firestick, personal login required for streaming services.
^Laundry: In-building laundry available for stays over 1 week, will consider for shorter stays upon request prior to check-in.
^Cleaning Fee: Stays over 1 week will require deep clean, total cleaning fee will be $140.
^Early Check-in: Early check-in at 1pm may be available in certain situations upon request. The early check-in fee is $35.
^Guest Number: Only the number of guests stated in your reservation are allowed to be at or in the property at any time without express written approval of property owner. If you exceed the number of guests you book for, there will be a $100 fine per person per night. No parties or gatherings. Noise monitors inside house. Violations will be met with applicable fines & eviction.
^Pets: If you are bringing your fur child, there is a $150 pet fee, per pet. No cats. Max 2 pets only if under 30lbs. Please be sure to read Pet Rules in the House Rules section and state your agreement to Host at the time of booking.
^Starter supplies of toiletries are provided. However if you are here for a longer stay, you will likely need to make a short trip to the grocery to replenish some things, like paper products.
Neighborhood: Take a stroll down Bardstown Rd and bask in the vibrant culture and artwork of the Highlands. Grab some American favorites from Ditto's, have a beer at Highlands Tap Room, shop trendy styles at Pitaya, chow down on Cajun from J.Gumbo's or Korean BBQ from GOGi 1055, sip a stiff cocktail from Neat, dance the night away at The Hub or Atomic, or many other options- and that's only within the first 600 feet out your door!

Clean and convenient!
This property was very clean and was just what we needed. There is a full kitchen (stove, fridge, microwave, sink). The owner thought to provide extra blankets and pillows in case they were needed. It was close to so many restaurants and excellent nightlife! We were able to walk to so many different places. The street parking was easy to find.
