The property was great and location was really awesome for all kinds of walking destinations. We literally only slept and showered here as we were gone all day north days. Neighborhood was a little sketch but definitely at no fault of the property owner. I would absolutely stay at this apartment again if and when we go back to Louisville. Matt was quick to respond each time I emailed him and was even proactive with alternate delivery options when I couldn’t pull up links for check in.

Poor communication
We were given the wrong room #. We followed the parking directions "hazards on" and unload in the lobby. We were threatened and harrrased while unloading (locals). (After receiving the correct room #)The front door knob fell off, the front door felt like a closet door (weak/unstable). The hallway had a horrible oder. Paid for parking, directions were confusing, it took us 1 hour to figure it out. Our assigned parking was taken multiple times. Communication was ignored throughout our stay, we reached out multiple times.
The property was nice and had everything we needed. We enjoyed how walkable the area was.

Fun Get Away
The property was just as shown. Instructions were easy to follow on how to enter and get to the apartment. If you're a light sleeper be sure to have white noise or something to have on to drown out the outside noise at night. Not sure if it happens a lot but a street party sprang up while we were there. The streets were blocked off with cars and lots of music and fun was being had until 5am. This didn't ruin our trip by any means just want people to be aware. Overall it's a great apartment and Matt was great with his communications and making sure we had everything we needed.

Twilight Thursdays at Churchill Downs
We booked this property for our stay during Twilight Thursday at Churchill Downs. It was a perfect place for 4 adults to stay comfortably. Matt was extremely helpful with the check-in/out process. We’d definitely stay again.
