Unique Downtown Studio with an Industrial Vibe

Cool place. We willstay here again.

Just before Christmas I decided to visit family and friends in Shelbyville. Having grown up there I’m particularly sentimental about the downtown area and love the revitalization it’s seen. I didn’t want a hotel and didn’t want to burden friends since I was traveling with my miniature (but chonky) poodle, Jazz.This was exactly what I was looking for – a comfortable, modern studio that was close to everything including The Bell House (great food and drinks) and The Paddock (great coffee and breakfast) which is a 60-second walk door-to-door via the ally stairs.The space is in the basement of what was my dentist’s office when I was a kid. I’m unsure what it used to be, but they’ve done a fantastic job of transforming it. The space has a distinctly industrial/masculine feel because of the original joists, heavy metal doors, exposed brick columns, concrete walls, the visible updated electrical/plumbing and the original chicken wire industrial privacy windows which are wonderfully aged. The rich, warm tones of the furnishings compliment the vibe.While I had a couple of friends over for drinks, you could easily have an event with 10-15 people and it wouldn’t feel cramped. The bar area has a few visual references to the racing/bourbon culture of Kentucky but it’s done in a subtle, tasteful way (I didn’t feel like I walked into a Cracker Barrel).In sum the place was perfect for my pre-holiday getaway and I full intend for this to be my spot to stay when I visit moving forward.

The VRBO was perfect. Has the elegant modern feel just like the pictures show and has lots of space to hang out and relax. Loved the location and how walkable it was to coffee shops, restaurants, and bars. Loved staying here and highly recommend!

Cool place , great location . I would definitely book it again.

Located in the heart of Shelbyville. It’s within walking distance of downtown and the host gave plenty of information about local spots to visit. The space was industrial meets mid century modern. It was cool, perfectly peaceful and I loved the open concept. I will definitely book again!

Had a great stay, not to far from Louisville.

The location was good for our needs - near a little coffee shop - had everything we needed. Bring earplugs though. Trains go by in the middle of the night - you can also hear anyone who may be upstairs- Perfect spot for 2 people .

Awesome industrial vibe with 100% comfort. Perfect location in downtown Shelbyville. Close to all the great venues in Louisville or Lexington. I highly recommend!

The efficiency is spacious and decorated tastefully. The close coffee shop and food options make this a must stay. We will be back

I was exactly what we we're hoping for! We managed to visit 9 distilleries in 3 days. Great location and accommodations!!

Cool vibe and close to downtown eateries and coffee shops
