This loft was in a really great location, and had everything you could need for a comfortable stay. Very practical, but keep in mind there isn't much privacy if you have both rooms occupied, and the noise carries through the walls, so just something to be aware of. Overall, a very comfortable and nice stay.

The loft is a cool space and had all the amenities and comforts listed. Beds were super comfortable with clean fresh cozy bedding. The location is within walking distance to the Yum center, Jimmy John’s, wild eggs and the riverfront area. I’d recommend arriving in the daylight as the building entrance was hard to spot and the hallways felt a bit dark arriving alone at night.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
The property was nice, but we wouldn't stay there again. Location is convenient but not as centrally located as the description would suggest. The entrance is very strange as you have to travel down 2 long hallways. There is a lot of deferred maintenance that distracts from the stay, including a broken mirror door in one bedroom. Our major complaints include the excessive noise from the adjoining property due to the apparent lack of insulation between the properties, the open ceiling above the bedroom which exposed us to excessive noise from the air handler, small size of the second bedroom, and the lack of any place to put luggage except the floor in that same bedroom. Beds were comfortable but very low to the ground.
