About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

It’s “Always Friday” Here!

This Smart Home is set alongside Cincinnati OH and thriving MainStrasse Village in Covington KY. It’s conveniently located next to everything cool and trendy in Downtown, Bellevue and Newport ... only four blocks from the Ohio River.

THE SPACE

Always Friday is for everyone - families, business travelers, singles, couples, friends (two-leggers or four-leggers). It’s a private apartment for 1 to 2, who will feel at home with a fully-stocked kitchen and laundry nook, outdoor patio, Netflix and Apple TV, Amazon Alexa, drinks, coffee, snacks and more! As hosts of 3 other rentals, we always hear “you’ve thought of everything!” and “ tons of surprises everywhere!”

This apartment is located on the second floor of a two-family and allows for super easy on-street parking right in front of the home. There is relaxing patio space located alongside the row house for sipping cocktails or coffee.

Be a geek in this Smart Home and control the Hue Lighting, limitless music, and house temperature with your personal assistant Alexa. There is also extremely high-speed wireless internet and a multi-port USB station for charging up devices. For your entertainment, we offer free Netflix and Apple TV. Feel free to log into own accounts too - HBO, Showtime, HULU, Disney+, or Amazon Prime for example. Note: We do not have cable.

The bedroom is private with a queen-sized “Green Tea Memory Foam Comfort and Pressure Relieving Support Mattress” for a great night’s sleep. (Impressive huh?) Then there’s Alexa to help you drift away with ocean waves, babbling brooks, oscillating fans or 8 hours of washing machine sounds. She can even read you a good night story. There is a desk in the bedroom for private workspace.

Relax in the spacious living room with a retro radio, spin some vinyls on the record player, watch TV ( We provide the popcorn!) and lay down the There are even games, puzzles, and toys for the kiddos (or kids at heart) in the antique desk or yellow locker. Enjoy a little something extra most places don’t have …. our foot massager! Ahhhhhhh. If using the sofa for sleeping, you are required to cover it with the provided linens in the yellow locker. Failure to do so could result in extra damage charges for this expensive sofa.

Travel lighter since we provide all towels, linens, and toiletries like shampoo, conditioner, toothbrush / toothpaste, and bath gel. Need to do laundry? We provide detergent, fabric sheets, an iron, ironing board and more.

The kitchen is decked out with everything you’ll need for preparing home cooked meals. If it’s not there, we want to know so we can add it! Take a peek through our cabinets and drawers - you’ll find spices and herbs, pots ’n pans, baking dishes, cutting boards, knives, and many other helpful items. We offer a single-serve coffee maker and provide the k-cups and beans (it brews both!).

Easy on-street parking! You’ll almost always find a spot in front of the house. Note - On Mondays (from 8am - 10am), they do street cleaning on the left so you have to park on the right side of 5th Street. On Tuesdays (from 8am - 10am), they clean the other side (the right) so you have to park on the left side of 5th Street.

Want to add a couple more guests? See if The Slanted House below is available and enjoy the entire house together. We also have The Tres House and House of Liebe one street over …. they sleep 6 each.

If you do plan to stay with a pet, please mention it so we can discuss specifics. No cats, dogs only. Note the number of pets at the time of your inquiry or reservation (2 dog limit please.) We charge a Pet Resort Fee of $20 per stay.

The pictures don't do it justice..
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay here - from the much needed treats after lengthy traveling to the outstanding artistic eye in creating a relaxing space. What a treat to be greeted by soothing music upon entry and lounge on their luxurious sofa (I want one like this for my home). It was fun to discover quirky art throughout - wish I had taken pictures of some of the funnier pictures/quotes. I'm embarrassed to mention how idiotic it was that I couldn't figure out hot water in shower (turn knob completely counterclockwise) but Vicky did quick video for me. Parking was easy - most times we were able to park directly in front of entrance. I was alone first two days and felt completely safe. Their unit had everything we needed while we attended local business conference including two work desks/table. This is why we no longer stay in hotels!

Covington is cool!
Great stay here! We rented both Always Friday and The Slanted House. The location is perfect to be in between Mainstrasse and downtown Covington. So many great places to eat and drink. The house is very funky and cool with a ton of charm. Very clean and well stocked with everything you could possibly need. Just note this house was built in tne 1860’s and the stairs up are a bit steep and with the high ceilings, a lot of them!! If you have issues with a bunch of stairs, try The Slanted House. Vicky was extremely responsive and very honest with the listing, it can be a busy, noisy street….but perfect location!

Great stay!
We wanted a place to stay overnight for a short little weekend getaway. The place was clean and very cute, so much personality in everything! The rental is located near so many different activities and restaraunts, we had originally chosen it because it's only 5 minutes away from the Newport Aquarium. Had a bit of an issue and needed to contact the host, and she was so friendly in helping fix the problem! The only issue with this rental is trying to find the property if you're unfamiliar with this area. Google maps does not like to route you the correct way, but once you find your way it's just fine. We will absolutely be staying here again sometime!

Perfect place to stay for anything in downtown Cincy or N.Kentucky. Very clean, adorable place. We live on a farm so the lack of any kind of yard for the dog was a little challenging- my fault. Cute decor, fun extra stuff they provide made it special.

Welcometo the Jungle
Stayed overnight for the Sunday night football game. As we entered into the home we heard the song "Welcome to the jungle " What a wonderful way to kick start the early evening. There were a lust of dining options and things to do that I found useful. The property is so easy to get to. Location and the hostess were fantastic. We will be back. It beats paying 400 for a hotel.

This property was great for our quick weekend get away. Walking distance to downtown Cincinnati, a short drive to Newport, and several great restaurants in walking distance. Not having to worry about driving and parking helped make this location the perfect get away spot from the stresses of life.

When we entered the house, it was like coming back to my grandpa's home. Very clean and well maintained with all amenities equipped. The deco is 70's with nostalgic taste and ver well arranged. We atteneded a meeting at the Northern Kentucky Convention Center. This is 10 minutes walk, very pleasant and safe even returing back in the late evening. When we would have chance of teturning to Covington or Cincinnati, we will ho back to the same place.

We loved the place. It is a remodeled early 1800s building. It was great. And I loved the little added touches. From the memorabilia to the romantic lighting in the bedroom. Vicky the owner was great. We will definitely stay here again. Hopefully next year.
