About this apartment rental
This swanky loft has so many WOW factors your eyes will be dancing! Enter the setting through the vintage revolving door or conveniently on the elevator and arrive on the scene of this character-packed accommodation. The owners have transformed this late 1800s space from what was once a clothing factory into what looks like a scene from a James Bond movie. You’ll enjoy features from its former glory such as original trusses, exposed brick and hardwood floors. And the updated details will blow your mind.

This property is one of a kind. It is hard to beat. Very clean, perfect for a large group of friends. Amenities in the glass enclosed rooms were tough (like no dresser drawers or place to store make up and whatnot) but certainly manageable for a few nights.

Absolutely blown away by this lovely rental! Stylishly decorated, spacious, lots of comfy seating and the beds were dreamy!! The family would love to return for a big holiday getaway. Great location.
10.0 / 10.0
Our stay was great and very convenient for our wedding. There was a tour of the venue that we were given a heads up about. However, while touring the venue the employee brought people into our VRBO while people were changing, getting prepared or occupying the space. We didn’t mind the venue being toured but the tour of our private space unannounced seemed inappropriate.

What a unique property! Property was clean, comfortable, and entertaining! We loved our stay and Ben and Melinda were great hosts. We will for sure be back to stay again!

Beautiful and very unique property. Melinda was great to work with both before and after our stay. Would highly recommend for those exploring the quaint town of Shelbyville, and the surrounding bourbon attracts fry ions and Churchill Downs. Centrally-located for all!

The loft is simply amazing. Everything is thoughtfully laid out and makes you want to not leave to stay, hangout and enjoy every area of the loft.

Only Suggestion is to improve the music system with Sonos or similar system with speakers around the loft! Sounds from Television are not same as stereo and dampen the mood!
10.0 / 10.0
Property was very clean, comfortable and unique. I was celebrating my birthday with friends and family and enjoyed the unique space. With three of the 5 sleeping spaces not actual bedrooms, privacy was limited. Two of the three bathrooms were in the 2 bedrooms which made for limited use. The firepit in the center of the living space was amazing a great area to sit and talk. We had an issue with private limo service which we booked for a day of sight seeing. Owners refunded. I would definitely visit again.

We stayed here with a group of friends while doing the bourbon trail. It was everything we hoped for and then some. I love finding cool and unique places to stay. This one tops my list for now. If you have some time visit the little deli across the street called McKinley's. The food is to die for. Also, the coffee shop down the road called the paddock makes a great cup of coffee and a decent muffin. Do yourself a favor and stay here. No regrets.

Gorgeous Loft!
Even better in person! Surprised my husband for his 50th birthday and had an amazing time using the loft as our base to tour the Bourbon Trail. Plenty of space for 4 couples — 5 would work as well but makes it tough with only 3 bathrooms and not a lot of counter/extra space in bathrooms. The circular fireplace is awesome!! We loved hanging around in Loft, and being able to walk around downtown to the restaurant and shops is a big added bonus! Highly recommend!

Bottled in Bond Loft: The Real Deal
While some "lofts" are simply manufactured titles, this is the real deal.
What looks like an original industrial space in a turn of the century building has been transformed into a fantasy meets reality experience.
The amenities are glamorous and upscale. It is the perfect place for large groups to gather in a convivial setting while still having room to spread out. Guests should be able-bodied, as the elevator is only available during business hours. Highly recommended!
10.0 / 10.0
Awesome place
This property is very unique. We loved everything about it. It has an amazing kitchen, poker table and video games. It’s location to the bourbon trail is perfect. The host were very helpful when we had questions. We will definitely rent this place again.

Perfect Girl's Weekend
This was the absolute perfect loft our girl's weekend. The property was beautiful! Tere was way more space than the 8 of us needed, the beds were comfortable, the 3 full bathrooms made it easy for us all to get ready on time each day. We brought so much food, and the kitchen had room to accomodate it all. We loved it so much that we stayed in playing games and just enjoying the loft instead of out to a bar at night. If we ever need to rent in the area again, I would 100% go with this property again.

Loved everything about the place, and the town! It was close to everything we did, and will hopefully be back for more adventures!

Perfect Weekend
This loft is fabulous in every way! From the jaw dropping first glimpse through the revolving door, to the exploration of each sleeping “pod”, to the discovery of the netted bedroom ceiling, there are cool surprises everywhere! Everything was well stocked and highest quality. The weather was incredibly cold, so having that amazing fireplace and cozy hangout space was key to our memorable experience. We loved every single minute.

Great loft!
This loft is awesome! I’ve now stayed at 2 properties owned by Ben and Melinda and they are great hosts. Everything was spotless upon arrival. Checking in and out is extremely easy. This is a very comfortable and spacious loft, great for a group!

Great space!
We celebrated my wife's birthday here with some close friends. None of us had ever been to Shelbyville, but it is a great small town with lots of unique restaurants/coffee shops/antiques. The rental itself was perfect for us. Plenty of space for everyone to hang out and just have a fun weekend. We spent most of our time staying warm around the circular fireplace. We would definitely consider renting again.

Just as it looks on the website...fantastic!
This place is absolutely perfect for a gathering of friends/family. The owners were very attentive and certainly accommodating as well. The bathrooms are large size and the beds were extremely comfortable. The kitchen was very clean and worked well with our group of ten. As the pictures indicate, the furnishings are top notch and very clean. I most certainly will go back!! We had a blast!

Amazing Loft! 😍
The loft is beautiful. Everything was just as pictured. My bunco group and I went with the intention of just hanging out in the loft playing games and enjoying each other’s company. This loft was perfect for our intent.

Impressive
The listing is as good as the experience. It is a fabulous space, impressive in every way. The creativity in architecture layout and design, interior furnishings and amenities, just jaw dropping. The owners are wonderful people, young and vibrant and amazingly talented. The neighborhood is historic and adorable, and great proximity to bourbon trail distilleries. Just know the elevator let’s you out onto a retail venue on the 1st floor, smack dab in the middle of it! In any drunken state DO NOT USE THE ELEVATOR. In fact I’d suggest it be turned off to renting guests in off-retail hours. None of my friends knew that because I was the only one who knew the check in directions. Everyone else thought it was part of the venue. Epic story! Brilliant place to rent!

Bringing Chic to Shelbyville
Overall, great place! Had good communication with the owners, and the place was as listed and as showns. Really cool place. Also used their chef for a night and was pleased. This worked great for a 5 guy Bourbon Trail house. Only issue we had was with tv and internet, but we were hardly there so it didn't make a huge difference, and if you ever worked with a cable company that is no easy task. I would recommend this place if you got the people to fill the space.

The Loft is a treat
Everything about this property is done right. Ben and Melinda were fantastic and have done a great job with this property. Close by to several distilleries and Shelbyville was a cool little town. Would highly recommend this property!

Amazing Space!
The loft is beautiful and just like the pictures. It was the perfect space for a weekend getaway. It's located in Downtown Shelbyville which doesn't have a lot of attractions, but it was a great location for the Bourbon Trail.

Modern Design!
We were in town for corporate meetings, dinners and charity events and found the perfect place for our team to stay. The home is beautiful and has so many fantastic features…it was fun simply checking everything out. The owners were more than accommodating and were available if we needed anything or had any questions. If our travels bring us back to the area we will be contacting the Hardins!

Everything was perfect. I don’t think you can find a better and more fancy place to stay in all the Louisville area. It was like a dream, with a fire pit in the middle of the apartment. Cozy,fancy,exceptional,beautiful,extraordinary!
