About this property

Walk to Bengals and Reds and downtown Cincy. Easy Drive to Ark, walk to eat.

This unit gives you stylish comfort and convenience for a Cincinnati area trip. It's close to downtown, ball parks, museums, theaters, airport, and more. It's well located on the Southbank shuttle route. Uber rides are available also.
This unit is listed as a Three bedroom, and for privacy and comfort purposes it is a three bedroom. There are two bedrooms with queen sized beds, and a third bedroom that doubles as second setting room/TV room, with a queen sized memory foam "Couch-Bed" for a maximum capacity of six people. The unit itself is up a flight of stairs from ground level, and the main two bedrooms are up another flight of (relatively steep, old school) stairs along with two baths. On the main floor there is a kitchen, bath, and two sitting areas. One of those doubles at the dinning room, the other doubles as a bedroom/sitting room/tv room. The latter has a private locking door, and a product we found in the NYTimes called a "Couch-Bed, which is really a queen sized memory foam mattress that cleverly contorts into a couch. It isn't a futon or a sleeper sofa; it's far more comfortable. This third bedroom has privacy, it's own bath (not en suite), and direct access to the deck. Lots of vacation rentals try to cram 6 people into a tiny unit, that isn't the case here at all. With 1800 sq. feet, there plenty of room and plenty of privacy.

Good location with a number of dining options nearby. A little tricky finding the entrance, but after that it is very much as advertised.

Go Ravens!

Overall an awesome stay. Location of the stay was perfect. Good veiws and good vibes not far from places to eat and drink. The walk to the Bengals stadium was not bad providing if you are looking to get some cardio in.If not there is a shuttle bus to and from.

Perfect weekend!

We had the best weekend in Mainstrauss. This property was fabulous! Plenty of room, great bars and restaurants within 3 min. Walking distance. Mexican restaurant below for chips and margs and ice cream and hot Chocolate next door ( the best ). Great small town vibe ! We were able to walk to downtown Cinnci for shopping and activities and the Bengals game. Wonderful location! We will definitely stay here again.

Good value for space

Good space, close to everything, my only suggestion would be that check in instructions and parking info could have been clearer and the entrance could have been more clearly marked. Would stay here again

Great trip

Loved the location and the house it self. Had a little problem finding the address but the people next door at the ice cream shop told us. We walked around the area each night and was a blast.

Weekend get away

The property is clean. The description of the extra sitting room online didn’t match what we expected. We were pleasantly surprised that this room is now an actual bedroom with a real bed. Otherwise, our stay was pleasant. The property is close to many sights of Newport, Covington and downtown Cincinnati.

A Great Base for Exploring Cincinnati

We brought our 3 teenage grands to see the Ark Encounter, The Zoo and whatever else we could. Other than a glitch in the locating and checking in process, it was a wonderful place for our group. The 2 bedrooms and baths upstairs, with the 3rd bed and bath downstairs let us all have some privacy - we had a well equipped kitchen, nice big TV's. Perfect for us! (We were warned about the stairs!) The restaurant downstairs was great and the kids loved the ice cream shop next door. It's a lovely neighborhood with a park in sight on the next block.

Chill & Cozy

The photos did not do this place justice. The history behind the unit is so cool, and everything was clean and neat. It was only 3 of us staying here as we were in town for a wedding, we’re pretty quiet and low key, so this was so perfect. Theres a second unit in the same building, they were a little rowdier but honestly only noticed them when we were outside or passing each other on the stairs. The neighborhood is so fun, great array of restaurants, bars, and shops. The buildings have so much character! 10/10 would recommend!

Above the Mexican Restaurant

Good stay. Two of the bedrooms do not have any closet or place to hang your clothes. Other than that, it was fine. Also, entry from alley is a little dicey.

Nice Location

The place was as advertised. Two issues. First, the place hadn't been cleaned when we arrived. It was resolved quickly so really not a big deal. I did get reimbursed $75 though. Second, the WIFI was essentially useless. We had to work off of iPhone hot spots. Fortunately we were not around much and this is why I didn't escalate at the time.

Nice and Cozy

This place is nice and cozy. The stairs are pretty steep inside the house making it difficult for young children and elderly people to move from one floor to the next. One of my daughters took a nasty fall down the stairs, ultimately she was alright. But it did pose a bit of a problem for us. Otherwise the house was really great. It was a bit hard to find. But its connected to a mexican restaurant around the left side of the building.

Great location, charming neighborhood

The location was perfect, in the heart of Mainstrasse village. Restored historical building. Lots of space, plenty of privacy. It was a little difficult to find, given the listed description needs updating. The restaurant name listed has changed, and the house number on the awning wasn't visible. It could use some paint in the numbers to make it noticeable. There are 2 apartments, and they share a main entrance, so you rely on the other guests to keep the outside door locked as well. We were told to park in yellow space only, not white;however, the colors of the lines have long since faded. The property itself is nice, spacious, and charming. But if you plan on traveling during hot summer months, the air-conditioning does NOT effectively cool the upstairs rooms. Those that slept upstairs were too hot all night. Also, if there is an event in the park beside the rental, you will hear the noise. Overall we liked the property and would stay again. These are just things to keep in mind.
