Loved this stay! The rooms are all beautifully decorated and interesting. The music through the house was wonderfully relaxing. The location was better than we imagined. Everywhere we wanted to be was practically within walking distance. Just perfect!

Charming 50's vibe

The host was very prompt with her communication. The house was as advertised and in the perfect spot for our trip. We enjoyed the extra touches like music playing when we arrived, waters in the fridge, and a great coffee setup.

Unique charm in bustling district.

Great place to stay with a unique charm. It’s within walking distance to many attractions, shopping and dining. My only complaint would be that it only sleeps 2 comfortably. The couch is an option for 3 (in our case) or more. Would definitely stay again but bring an air mattress next time.

Unique comfortable home amazing location

The home had everything you needed. Very clean and comfortable. Unique items to look at use in the home, very nostalgic. The location is within walking distance to so many great restaurants and bars. We had the best time just walking out the front door for dinner and drinks. We were also close to Cincinnati.

Cute and Adorable

Perfect for last minute trip to serve as our home base as we explored the area. The little touches throughout the house were fun to find. Super comfy mattress! Our dog was pleased with the variety of place's to go on his walks. There were a few other dogs being walked in the area so he had plenty to smell!

Football Weekend Trip

This place is *amazing*! SO MANY cute little touches everywhere. We were constantly saying "look at this!" "did you see this?". Just really neat stuff everywhere. The bed was comfy, kitchen/bathroom well stocked, and a complimentary FOOT MASSAGER :) We loved the location and can walk to the football and baseball stadiums (as well as a lot of great restaurants and bars). I cannot recommend this place highly enough. You will not regret booking here. We can't wait to return!

Awesome place, awesome location

I chose this place because of proximity to Brady Music Hall and Great American Stadium. Both were about a 25 minute walk across the Ohio River on a suspension bridge. I found some nice restaurants all in walking distance. Vicky and Doug were never more than a message away with great suggestions about local food and entertainment. Place was thoughtfully decorated and well maintained. Although it was on street parking only, I never had an issue finding parking right in front of the place. Also, easy access to interstates. I thoroughly enjoyed myself and will stay here again next time I go to Cinci!

This home was so amazing. The decor was top notch to begin. The size of each room was perfect. Alexa playing relaxing music, bed was so comfortable and they have an area outside the bedroom door where you can go sit and have a smoke if you need too. I was sitting out back with my sweetheart and seen a falling star . This place is a must stay if you’re ever in the area. You won’t be disappointed I promise you that.

Really Enjoyed the Slanted House!

My husband and I really enjoyed our overnight stay at The Slanted House. The place was clean, comfortable and full of small touches that made our stay nicer (thanks for stocking the house with coffee!). The location of the slanted house is also great and is very close to many restaurants and shops in Covington. We went to the Savannah Bananas game during our stay and it was very convenient to catch the Southbank shuttle (2 pp) to the stadium. Also, we met our host Vicky and her Mom on the last day. Thanks for the nice conversation and restaurant recommendations, Otto's was great for brunch!
