The Fincastle Building
Apartment building
👍👍 My husband and I moved from out of state to Louisville last July. We had planned to purchase a home but did not find one we wanted. With a move date approaching, we reluctantly opted to look at apartments. The Fincastle was the first one we toured and from the moment we met the management, we we...

Bridge View CrossFit
Gym
👍👍 Just show up, is the gym's motto. The instructors are professional and push you on forum and technique. It is common to have kids and even a dog hanging out. Members encourage and help each other along the way. After only a month you will make friendships that last a life time. This gym continu...

Glassworks Fitness
Gym
👍👍 The owner accommodates travelers at $25/week. The gym is 24 access with a key card and has everything for a good workout. It is not necessarily staffed 24h, however, so you may have to deal with poor gym etiquette by others (read: people who actually don't know how to lift, but grunt as if they do...

👍👍 Great selection and top quality workmanship. Delanor is very helpful in making suggestions and willing to customize if able to. I love the one of a kind original selections. The only downfall is I can't seem to leave her store without buying something so...ENTER AT YOUR OWN RISK!! LOL

Stellar Suites
Hotel
👍👍 Stellar Suites was a fantastic change of pace from the big chain hotels that we normally stay at. In the heart of "Nulu", it is within walking distance to lots of great eateries and entertainment - the Garage Door, Grind Burger, Louisville Cream, the Louisville Slugger museum, and much more! Our roo...

Frank's Whiskey Place
Bar
👍👍 This bar not only serves the most delicious drinks ever (don’t sleep on the cherry smoked Old Fashion!!), hanging here feels like you’re in a good friend’s living room. The owners and staff are so sweet and fun, accommodating and kind. Service is excellent, place is clean…AND IT IS DOG FRIENDLY!! Th...

Hollyhock Suites on Main
Hotel
😠 REALLY GROSS This place was, for us, disgusting. There was hair in the bed-sheets, they clearly had not been washed. We IMMEDIATELY left and asked for a refund. The owner claims in his reply that we stayed 24 hours, but in fact we left within 15 minutes of our arrival, and we have already told hi...

Brew & Sip The Cafe
Coffee shop
👍👍 Excellent Coffee! If you like something sweet after your coffee, there are lots of choices. They have BOTH breakfast AND lunch menus, but BREAKFAST ALL DAY is an option. Today I had a Breakfast Burrito. Friendly Service. Clean Restroom. Highly recommend for people who work downtown OR simply to enjo...

Sugar Town Vintage
Vintage clothing store
👍👍 Blessing and Lily have an eye for vintage fashion that is truly unmatched! I bought a mystery bag that was certainly "under-priced" for the careful consideration, time that went into it, and items picked. I also have two dresses from the shop that have become a staple in my wardrobe! Sugar Town is t...

Gym
👍👍 Incredibly welcoming environment with fantastic instructors. I came in with no experience and next to no upper body strength. I was amazed how quickly they got us in the air and doing tricks in the intro series. I was expecting to take one class for fun and realize it wasn't for me. I've been at Sus...

👍👍 Found this little gem walking distance from my apartment. Been here for over a year. Though I've heard about it, and walked or scootered by atleast 50 times. I never noticed it. Great atmosphere, great service,and very good burger! The juiciest burger I've had in years. My partner had the chicken sa...
