Restful and cozy

My family and I enjoyed our stay, the apartment was cozy and just a short walk from the convention center where we were attending a conference all week. Great place for adults and kids. Loved the design of the place.

We had a great time and the location of the VRBO was fabulous. The loft was clean and well stocked with everything we needed. Will likely book the same loft anytime I come back to the area.

Great spot!

This property was beautiful! It was the perfect fit for our needs! The bathroom and kitchen were nicely remodeled with a great set up. So much natural light made it warm at times, but also very beautiful. It’s close to Hotel Covington and Madison Event Center so a great solution for guests that may be attending events there like us! The host is very responsive.

Cutest little apartment

I booked this apartment for my bridal party to stay the night before the wedding and get ready the morning of and it was perfect, great natural light with those giant windows. My only complaint is the difficulty I had finding the door to the apartment.

Beautiful property but a lot of steps

The place was spotless and had everything we needed. The location was perfect - shops, stores, bars, restaurants. Loved the outside deck, especially to see the fireworks during the 4th of July. The only downside was it was 39 steps up to the third floor, which was kind of difficult.

3 floors up

The property was great. It had absolutely everything we needed. Maybe in the description might list things that are already there. That would have saved some packing for us. Also show a picture of the deck furniture. Overall great stay.

Nice apartment

This was a decent landing pad while I was in Covington for work. The bedspread was dirty with oddly what looked to be caulk stripping on it, and some of the towels were frayed and stained. I just switched them out for clean ones, but other than that, it was a nice place with everything I needed and in a great location!
