Conference Travel
This property was fantastic for a group! We had a group of coworkers attend a conference in Louisville and this property was perfect - each room had it's own bathroom and was a nice private space. The house was very clean and the beds were extremely comfortable. Communication was very quick and informative with the host. Location was close to some great restaurants and bars. Overall, would definitely recommend!
