Excellent property well laid outGood location close to campus, but not too close! Easy street parking enjoyed playing Pac-Man! Definitely recommend I would stay again
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this home. We found everything we needed, the house was immaculate and the host was responsive. We’ll definitely be back!
Stayed here for a little over a week while in town for a sports competition. Couldn’t have been better! Clean, fully stocked, perfect hot tub, solid A/C, and great location. Highly recommend!
My fiancé and I just stayed here with our dog and it was a very nice stay. The interior was updated and clean, and we enjoyed the hot tub. The exterior/neighborhood is a little rougher, but that was expected given the location. Proximity to downtown was super convenient.
I have absolutely nothing to complain about. The place was clean, updated, and cozy. Nice sized bedrooms and priced affordable. I would definitely stay again. Hot tub was 104⁰ and ready. Awesome stay.
This house was the perfect size for my fiancé and I, our best friends and our dogs. The bedrooms were comfortable and the fenced in yard with the hot tub was great. Street parking wasn’t too hard to find, thankfully. Property manager/host was communicative. I have no complaints with our stay. Would stay here again for sure.
Me and my fiancé absolutely had a comfortable loving romantic trip with this property made us feel at home and was in a great location to get food . The jacuzzi was absolutely the best. And the Host were amazing! . They Left a Card saying Happy Birthday to my Fiancé. Great Communication and absolutely the best by foray and would highly recommend this Vrbo Home to anybody looking for a great property and Host.
We had a great stay at this house! It was an easy check in process, communication with the owner was simple and responsive. The house was updated, inviting, comfortable and for the most part very clean (some of the dishes were a little dirty so ended up rewashing everything before we used any of it and there were some open, left over snacks in pantry). The hot tub was nice amenity that my kids really enjoyed. The neighborhood is definitely transitioning, there were a couple times we heard groups of teenagers walking the alleys, hollering but again its close to the university so not that big of a deal. Overall, we felt safe and had a wonderful stay and we would definitely stay again, thanks for the hospitality!
My guy and I recently stayed at the house for 5 nights for our second Columbus trip. We had a fantastic time and can not say enough good things about the house. We did have a little trouble with the door code (but admittingly we tend to be challenged with codes) but a quick call to the host took care of it (the door was a little stuck due to super cold weather). The house itself was great - comfortable beds, nice shower upstairs, fully stocked kitchen (with an abundance of coffee and creamer which was a nice surprise) and of course the hot tub! We loved the location of the house as well - quick little walk to the Short North for going out and even a little dive bar like 2 blocks away. We are the type of people who love to walk everywhere when we are on vacay, and this house was perfect location to explore and come home to. It was very cold while we were there & the heater and comfy beds were much appreciated. We would totally stay here again & communication with Em & Darren was quick & easy everytime!
Will absolutely stay here again!!!! The house is so cute and well maintained. Brand new appliances and the hot tub was perfect. The house was perfect for our family of 5.
Owners had great communication when needed. House was clean, updated, and had everything we needed. Easy check in and out! Located close to the Ohio Expo Center, as that is why we were staying. Some of the houses close by were updated. Quiet neighborhood during our time spent there.
The house was very clean and very accommodating. The only reason I gave the location only 4 stars was the neighborhood was very loud and noisy the first night. The second night was much quieter.
We were really looking forward to our stay. The home was clean, comfortable, and just as described. The host was responsive and kind throughout the booking process, and we appreciated the thoughtful touches inside the house.Unfortunately, we had to leave in the middle of the night after discovering individuals broke into our car. What made the situation even more unsettling was that there were no exterior cameras or security lighting around the property. After that incident, we simply didn’t feel safe staying in the area.It’s a shame, because the home itself was lovely—but the lack of basic exterior security measures, combined with the neighborhood’s overall feel, made it difficult to relax.We truly wish the circumstances had been different. The host was helpful and understanding when we reached out, and we’re grateful for that support.
