The location of this place is perfect to start with, the room was exceptionally clean and well equipped. This is the only place we stay when we come to Frankfort, it is just that good.

Okay but could be a great place
Clean and nice kitchen but furniture and bed was not comfortable. Nowhere to unload your bags except at the street and parking was in garage across the street. There was no parking spaces available upon arrival. The place has great potential with a few upgrades.

This hotel was very cute and super close to buffalo trace which is where we wanted to start the bourbon trail with only being a 6 minute drive. Clean and super unique inside, made us feel super safe by providing codes for the outside door, elevator doors and for your room. We had a lovely stay and at an affordable price. Would stay again!

Our stay was awesome! I do wish we could have watched live TV cause I have to purchase Netflix for one night so we had something to watch. But the outside neon light outside gave such a cool glow at night time. This whole apartment had such an awesome vibe to it. Five stars for sure

Great stay in Frankfort
Nice place for sure. Clean and had all the necessary things for our stay. Slightly confusing getting in when we got there, but we figured it out. Info coming from Hotels.com was pretty good.
Texted the virtual check in number that had been texting me and they responded when I had a question which was nice. I would stay here again. Bar downstairs was pretty good and easy.

We had a little trouble getting in to the room but the host was so quick to respond and fix the issue quickly. The room was so cute and comfortable. It’s located upstairs from a restaurant right in the downtown area with plenty of restaurants to walk to. Overall, we had a great stay and would absolutely stay here again.

Not a very practical accommodation. Virtually no surfaces to set anything on. No coffee table, tiny bedside tables. Bathroom configuration is strange. Only place to hang a towel is the farthest point from the shower. TP holder out of reach from toilet. Small ironing board provided, but no iron.

I was updated with check in information a day prior, and very detailed which helped finding the parking. Plenty of places to eat and shop nearby and sample bourbon! 1.6 miles from Buffalo Trace. The interior was quiet, secure and clean! I could smell the fabric detergent/softner on the sheets. Bathrooms were clean, bed was comfy and large smart tv. Id definitely stay here again!

Really cool place. It's an apartment, not a hotel. Spacious room with a beautiful view of the street. Attached to a bar which was convenient. It's an old building so sometimes you can hear people walking above you, but for the most part very quiet. No street noise. Parking was convenient right across the street.

No employee on site , available by text and responded fairly quickly . Wood floors amplify any noise around or above you. Very nice room with kitchen and coffee/ creamer. If you're looking for a normal hotel with employees and a front desk. This isn't for you.
