    Completely updated loft apartment right on the main drag of town. Has everything you would need and more. Could comfortably fit two couples for a night or a week. Fully stocked kitchen with pots, pans, knifes and even dishsoap. A great addition was the soap and shampoo in the shower, snacks on the table and even a sample pack on products from the shop directly below. We did our research ahead of time and knew this unit has stairs, three different sets, two in the back where you park and one from the Main Street. So if stairs are an issue, don’t get this unit. If they’re not a problem you won’t regret staying here as it’s so nice and walking distance to everything in downtown Bardstown.

    This unit is perfectly situated on the main drag in downtown Bardstown. It is walkable to many restaurants and shops. We popped out the front door and had breakfast, lunch, and dinner options within a few steps.The unit itself is very comfortable and well-appointed. The bedrooms were on the smaller side, and the beds were comfortable. The sitting area and kitchen had everything we needed as well. The in-unit washer and dryer were a great addition.The parking in the rear is very convenient, with a reserved space next to the stairs and plentiful additional parking available if you have more than one vehicle. It's a quick drive to several distilleries in the area as well, if that's the purpose of your visit (it was for ours). Additionally, the liquor store downstairs has great prices if you want to taste/tour at the distilleries then buy later.I'd highly recommend this apartment, and will rent again upon our return trips!
