Overall the stay was nice. I was allowed an early check-in by 1 hour. Communication was good with our host. He answered promptly with any concerns.The 2 biggest issues we experienced were directions to the building. You should be aware that the building has been split into multiple units. The '08 unit is on the backside of the building. The front unit facing the street is '12.. the instructions should give better description. Other occupants are there with you. This should be disclosed in the description as well. We had no issue but if I was a single family, or with small kids, I would want to know. Also, I know that remotes can be hard to keep up with, but trying to get tvs to work was super frustrating. I dont want to download apps to work the tvs. Even then, it didnt work without the original remote. Last, the gorilla is kinda creepy. Maybe something a little different. Overall, we enjoyed the stay and my family was able to celebrate our graduate with plenty of space.

This was a nice unit for our family to gather for a graduation weekend. since we had a lot going on we did not spend much time in the unit but when we got back it was a good location for us to gather. There are several areas in the unit for sitting around the table, playing games and eating meals. the kitchen was well furnished and had everything we needed to meals- better than many units we have stayed in. while the unit does not look like much on the outside, once we opened the door we were pleasantly surprised. It was very clean and well taken care of. the theater room was a nice way for us all to kick back at the end of the day with a movie. We did not use the TV functions of the projector system but while there the Roku system was not working (which we knew about ahead of time) I am not familiar with Roku anyway but could not figure out how to work the tv's in the bedrooms as there are no remotes and I could not figure out the instructions. May not be a problem for the next person. The location of the unit is not in the best area of town but we did not mind that as it was fine. It had easy access to highways so we could get where we needed to be quickly. The owner was very quick to respond to any questions I had and was very helpful. Overall we had a nice stay here and would rent again if ever in this area again. I can't give this a 5 star rating because of the location but the owners have done all they can to make it a 5 star property and I can recommend it.

We stayed for two nights, and enjoyed the place.
Location - it's fine. It was *not* a sketchy neighborhood as one or two reviews mentioned. If you come from downtown you'll go through bad neighborhoods, but it's not in a bad neighborhood itself. It was hard to find as it's in the back of a building, so you don't see the address number from the street. The great news is that you're 15-20 minutes max from all the great things in Dayton, and if you want regular-fare food and shopping, that's like 5 minutes away.
Quality - it's not perfect, but it's not really fair to nitpick. There are imperfections here and there. A bit of chipped paint and things like that. But it's put together well and has everything you need.
Stay - We actually had a great time here. The dining table had eight chairs, so we had plenty of room to gather and eat dinner. The projector room was nice. We brought our Xbox Series S to play games and watch movies on. Now to be fair the instructions say to just turn on the switch and the projector will turn on. But you have to flip the switch, *then* go over to the projector and power it on. Then press the button in the center of the projector to confirm your input choice.
The bedrooms were fine, but those fold-out suitcase holders would be nice. Some of the pillows were really lumpy, and a throw blanket or two that are lighter weight would be nice.
Overall - For the price, the amenities and location you can't beat it. It's not perfect, but it's worth a stay.

Wonderful stay. There were 5 adults in the group for a work trip and it was perfect! It was in a good location, well stocked and tons of space. The theater room was awesome and Steve was a wonderful host. Steve was quick to respond and we enjoyed our week.

We flew in to Dayton from Texas. The house was very clean and we enjoyed staying there. The only down fall is there is only one room with a closet or place to store your clothes. Also was not a fan of downloading an app on my phone to use the remote. The theater room was nice but wish the projector and pun system would have worked while there. The host communicated promptly when we brought it to his attention. He sent someone out but it still didn’t didn’t get fixed. We stayed 3 days with no theater room.

Enjoyed our stay at the location. Great place to hang out for family and large group. Theatre room was awesome wish we had more time to use. Location looks to have been recently updated on flooring and place was clean. Owner was always responsive to any questions/concerns. Would recommend the place and stay again in the future.

I messaged the owner several times about location to University of Dayton - he said it was 4 miles. It was double that! The house felt unclean in parts (carpets are gross) and there’s just a lot of wear & tear not maintained. It’s in a pretty shady part of town too - that would have been helpful to have been disclosed. The owner was very communicative during our stay. Theater room IS cool. Wouldn’t stay here again though!

We have 5 kiddos, and they never got board. The theater room was the biggest hit! They enjoyed having their own rooms/space to sleep. Overall, it was defiantly a great host to have for the weekend getaway with the kiddos.

Family and I stayed here for a local wedding. We had trouble with the second floor shower leaking. Maintenance came to temporarily fix the issue but the next day we ran into the same problem. Overall it was a nice place. Just needs to fix the shower leak and replace the carpet where shower leaked down on first floor.

Excellent Property
Stayed here over a long weekend for a local wedding. Property was very clean, well decorated, and had a great living space. Theater room was a great place to hang out and the sound didn't travel to other rooms upstairs, so we could watch TV/movies later at night without waking our kids.

Family Gathering
A family gathering for our 90 year old Aunt. We enjoyed the Dayton area. Shiloh Condo was enough room for our small out of town group. Very unique decor and had all the extras we needed.

This place does the trick
Overall the place is mostly what it appears to be. Bedrooms are sort of small, but theatre room was great.
It was cold when we were there and the heat rises to the second floor, but doesn’t heat the first floor quite as well.
The host was very responsive and overall the place suited our needs.

Interesting place
We had a nice stay. The place is decorated as shown. The theater room was great and easily accessible right off the kitchen. There is no outdoor space except the parking spaces. Our friends rented two bedroom apartment in the front half of the building which was very convenient for us.

Perfect for a staycation
If you're looking for a property to use and hang out in, this is the place. It's got a poker table, a large dining table and another 4 person table. Couple that with the theater and you have a lot of entertainment space for playing cards, boardgames and watching movies - or just hanging out and catching up with friends and family. My group was perfectly content staying in given the pandemic and we couldn't have asked for a better place.

Fun place to stay!
We really enjoyed our stay! We used this property as a meeting and overnight space for our wedding and loved it. The kitchen area is especially lovely as well as the downstairs bedroom (built in crib for little one!) and entertainment room. Upstairs is fun with the themed bedrooms so everyone felt like they got to choose a personalized space.
Some spots could use a little updating but was overall great. Parking is easy in back and plenty of room for all.

New Owner wants to please!
This owner wants to please! Steve was very good to talk with and was quick to answer any and all questions we had. It is our understanding that he just took over this unit and I am certain that once he addresses a few things, you will be giving him a 5* rating! It was a great place for us to participate in a 4-day virtual conference together. The kitchen had lots of staples for us to use, and there were plenty of linens. Great check in and out process and the movie room was perfect for our conference!!

Great Stay
My friends and I had a great time at this beautiful property. We enjoyed it so much that we're currently trying to figure out another reason to book again. Steve was also very helpful toward the end of our stay with us needing an additional hour after checkout time. he replied quickly and was very pleasant.

Nice Getaway Near the City Center
We needed a property that could comfortably hold 10 adults and it did not disappoint. There were 5 bedrooms which were all very nice and had comfortable beds. I had one of the bunk bed rooms and, as an adult, I opted to put the top bunk mattress on the floor of the bedroom which there was plenty of room to do. The kitchen was very nice and I enjoyed how it was centrally located on the main floor and the "balcony" style second floor allowed everyone to see into the kitchen was the main area where we were if not out and about or outside. The gathering areas are nice and can accommodate large sit down gatherings up to 8 people in the dining area, 4 people in the kitchenette area, 6 people at a second floor area, and about 4-5 in the second floor couch area. The inside was very clean and all linens were provided. The property appears to be undergoing some renovation and there was some random light construction trash outside of the unit which did not provide the best first impression but it is soon forgotten when you enter the unit.
We came to the area to go to Yellow Springs but happened upon Dayton Pride which was great because we had easy access to both Yellow Springs (30-40 minute drive) and downtown Dayton where the Pride festivities were (about a 10 minute drive). The area where the house was located was within an easy drive to Dayton though not walkable.
Communication with our host was easy and he was very responsive.
The checkout time of 10am is a little early for me and the crowd that I was with but you can stay longer for an additional fee. I do feel that the fee was too expensive and so a less expensive fee or an 11am or 12pm checkout time would be nice-but hey, we didn't have to rush around in the morning so the fee was nearly worth it.
I think what I paid per night was reasonable but just slightly on the high side given that it is not within walking distance to the city center-Not being from Dayton, I did not realize that the Dayton area was as large as it is so that's on me. Overall it was a nice place to stay for a little weekend getaway and I'd recommend the stay.

Unique property
This condo fit our needs for traveling with a group for soccer. We couldn’t get the theatre room to work as an HDMI cable was missing. Owner tried to help over messaging, but we were missing cable. Neighborhood is a little rough lots of loud music at night and didn’t let kids go out after dark. Weird water/pump situation with grinder pumps ans shower. It sleeps a lot of people but only 2 bathrooms. Overall it met our needs for the weekend and was clean.
