Getting Around:

We're located at 1025 E Main St, right in the middle of Butchertown and NuLu.



There are 3 private parking spaces behind the house on the gravel pad -- please do not park elsewhere off the alley, they are private properties and your car might be towed.



Additional free parking is in the front of the house on E Main St. It technically has a 2-hour limit, but we've never had issues with tickets for extended periods except on large event weekends.



Other Things to Note:

🔹 This is a second-floor apartment, and guests must climb stairs to access it.

🔹 The home is next to a cocktail lounge and a busy craft brewery. The surrounding area can be lively, especially during nightlife hours.
