Great place
The apartment had everything needed for a great stay. The bed was very comfortable and there were extras making the stay very nice and comfortable. The lockbox for the door had an issue but host was respondent and helpful. It truly was a great stay and if ever in the area, we would stay again!

"Scholars Apartment"
Enjoyed our stay. Well equipped, up-to-date and comfortable. Only 2 minor issues. Some of the dishes from the previous guest had been put away dirty and had to be re-washed. It would be nice have a clear path (or sidewalk) to get to the stairs leading up to the entrance instead of having to walk through wet, dewy grass.

We loved this place. Everything we needed, and more, was there. There was a brand new park right by the place that kept our toddler busy. All in all, definitely a place that we can recommend to anyone.

Clean, but not quiet
If you’re a night owl and don’t mind noisy neighbors, this spot will suit your needs. Unfortunately we were in town for a meeting and had to be up at 6am. Since the downstairs tenants stayed up until 1:30am, we didn’t get much sleep. The apartment is just like the pictures though—very clean and updated. The mattresses are comfortable. The kitchen is great with everything you need to cook if you choose. One suggestion for the owner might be to add a path to the staircase so your guests don’t have to walk through the tall grass to get to the stairway.

Perfect place to visit my Kentucky roots
Perfect size for me and my son to stay. Well appointed and comfortable! The kitchen has everything you need to cook for yourself if you want (full size fridge, stove/oven!!). Beds were very comfortable, and the place has a cozy charm for sure! Felt like a home away from home. The only possible improvement would be dedicated parking off the street and a paved walkway to the stairs (you have to walk through a yard for just a few feet - makes a difference between wet shoes and dry shoes if it’s been raining), otherwise a perfect stay!!

Beautiful, comfortable but NOISY!
This 2 bedroom, 1 bath apartment is lovely. It was clean, the beds and linens were very comfortable, BUT the noise from the downstairs tenants was awful. Loud hard-core rap music, a tv and laughter/loud yells went on til well after midnight. At some point the thumping bass of the music ended, but the loud tv remained on all night. It does sit on a fairly busy street so there's some street noise, but if you're looking for a quiet stay and a good night's sleep this isn't the place (at least while the university is in session.)

A good stay except for the fact that the AC didn't work the first day. Repairs were not completed until the 2nd day of our stay. These things happen. Other than that we were pleased.
