Great place, close to a lot of what Columbus has to offer. Hot tub was great to relax in. Parking was easy as well, street parking but the spot in front of the house was available the whole time we were there.

Charming 1 Bedroom/Studio w/ Parking

KatieRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Loved our stay here! We stayed 3 nights for a wedding we were in town for. Great location and only 7 minute drive to the Park of Roses. Easy to get in and very private and quiet. Loved that the exterior was pink! It was nice having a little yard to take our dogs out in to use the bathroom. The neighborhood felt really safe and was very walkable. Would definitely stay here again in the future.

NEW & AMAZING Short North/Victorian Village Home!

QuanishaRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Overall a 5 star rating for what we paid. The house is clean, everything worked just fine. We had more than enough space. The area at first seemed scratchy, but we stayed to ourselves and were just fine. We would stay again.

KristaRating, 5 stars1 week ago
My coworker and I absolutely loved this place! We had mentioned coming back just for the beauty of it. We were able to check in so easily, even after getting off of a late flight that evening. We had a tad bit of a connection issue on the TV, but they were there immediately to get us fixed up! This house is absolutely stunning, and I would recommend it to anyone!

Sophia's Sunny Place Columbus Ohio

JimRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Sophia's Sunny Place is located in a beautiful, safe, and quiet neighborhood. The home itself is quite spacious and comfortable. We appreciated having a kitchen with every kitchen item needed including an ice-cream scoop to scoop up Jeni's Ice Cream purchased at the Giant Eagle grocery store. This is a place you can call a home away from home.

Pristine Private Entry Studio w/Gas FP @ Polaris

DougRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Teresa and Addison's place is exactly as described in the listing. Everything you could need for a short or long stay is here for you. Beautiful backyard scenery right outside including squirrels, chipmunks, rabbits, and deer! The Sleep Number bed was fantastic! Only trouble I had was figuring out where all of the light switches were, otherwise this was a great place to stay while in the area for a conference. Highly recommended!

Blue Silk House (parking, families, business)

JanRating, 5 stars4 days ago
This place is ideal for anyone: couples, families, groups. The kitchen was stocked with all the cooking supplies and staples and spices. The washer and dryer were great. We got out the Duplo blocks and train set for our grandson to play with, and we enjoyed watching TV under the comfy throw in the basement. Thanks!

We had a great stay at Marty’s place! The location was perfect for walking around the German Village, getting dinner/food in the brewery district, and close enough to make a quick drive to Ohio Stadium. Everything was clean, and we were comfortable the whole time. Thanks so much - we’ll be back!

Guest Suite with private entrance on 1.5 acres.

CrystalRating, 5 stars4 days ago
My teenage son and I were very comfortable here for one night. The host had a lot of very thoughtful amenities for such a small space, and we were able to fix a small breakfast. We enjoyed the coffee and tea. I absolutely loved her recommendations for the nature walks right out the back door! We saw deer and bunnies. The AC unit worked great and kept us plenty cool. And the small blue fold out chair is actually about the size of a twin bed, and was quite comfortable! We would love to stay here again if we are in the area. The only negative for us is that the refrigerator does not have any kind of freezer compartment, so we were not able to freeze our ice packs for the cooler for our next day. Overall, it was a beautiful and comfortable stay.
