Great place to stay

Nice cute house. Clean and comfy. Really comfy beds, good hot shower with water pressure. We weren't there for very long but the back yard, kitchen and laundry would have been great had we needed them. Parking is on the street but we had no trouble parking with in a couple houses. Felt safe and secure. Road noise was minimal.

Comfortable stay!

We really loved all of the little thoughtful things around! They definitely make you feel at home! The towels and blankets were so fresh and clean! The emails for the check-in/check out process were sent a little later than preferred but its okay! The front steps were a bit tricky to navigate. We also wished the shower would have a grab bar or traction on the tub base, it was a bit slippery! There is no bathroom fan so it was tough to dry out the room after showering. Overall it waa a very cute house and we would definitely stay again!

Outstanding stay!!!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Hickory House. Everything was clean and tidy and ready the moment walked in. The house is in a quiet neighborhood with restaurants that are easy to walk to. It was super easy to get in touch with the host, she responded very quickly. I would definitely recommend this to small families or couples.

I can't imagine a better location

Where to start...the house itself is great, clean, updated, charming, the list goes on. The hosts were fantastic, they left us a welcome snack basket and were extremely responsive and helpful. The location of the Hickory House is really just the cherry on top. We were able to walk to just about everything we wanted to do and Dayton has plenty to offer. There was a German/Oktoberfest happening just down the road and it was such a fun time. The Dayton Dragons have a nice stadium in the heart of downtown and people sure get behind their local team. Plenty of great restaurants and breweries all within a walk or cheap uber ride. If you are ever planning a trip to Dayton do yourself a favor and book the Hickory House you will not be disappointed.

4 of us went to Dayton for a retirement get a way. Went to the airforce mus. and The Century bar. Very close to down town without being hectic. Clean, cute house. comfortable beds. Would stay again. Only negative is the shower head needs replaced.

Highly Recommended

We had an amazing stay at The Hickory House! From the moment we walked in the door, we felt at home and very much welcomed! We had everything we needed and then some. The home was super comfortable, clean, updated...truly felt as a home away from home. The location is amazing, walking distance to local coffee shops and eateries. Easy access to highways. We will definitely stay when we are in the area again.
