This was a perfect mini-vacation for us. Nicole's apartment was beautiful, spotless and exactly what we needed. Located on a main Street of Bardstown, we shopped, ate and drank within walking distance to all the best places - and there are many. So convenient! Extra special touches helped make this visit stress-free and easy: There was a lighted, magnifying makeup mirror and a box of tissues on the vanity in the main front bedroom that made it a cinch to get ready for a special birthday dinner at the Rickhouse (highly recommended). We also found two luggage stands that made it simple to unpack our suitcases. Nicole nailed every detail in her directions and instructions on where to park, how to locate the apartment and exactly how to access entry. Plenty of towels, dishes and paper products. The shower had steady hot water and the water pressure was perfect. Everything was spotless and welcoming. She messaged me a list of special events going on in the area that weekend and we enjoyed some good bourbon and music at the Talbott Tavern (highly recommend). The bed was so comfortable, we slept through most of the noise outside. Being in the middle of it all meant hearing roaring motorcycles and the noisy people streaming out of the bars at closing. (A very nice gesture we became aware of was a box of multiple sets of ear plugs in the main bedroom closet. We smiled knowingly when we saw them but we didn't need them. All the walking, good food and bourbon knocked us out.) We would come back to this beautiful apartment in the future in a heart beat and Bardstown is a wonderful, fun-filled, hospitable town we want to return to, again and again. Thank you, Nicole, for helping me make my husband's birthday very special!
