We offer a smooth and hassle-free self-check-in experience! While I don’t live on-site, I’m always just a message away if you need anything.

✅ Easy Check-In Process – Complete your rental agreement, ID verification, & security hold in minutes!

Just like at a hotel, where you provide your ID and security deposit at the front desk, our check-in process is just as simple—only online! We use a secure system, where you’ll receive a personalized rental agreement, ID verification, and a quick security hold (not a deposit). Once completed, your arrival instructions will be sent right to you.

💡 Important: These steps must be completed to receive check-in details. Skipping them means we can’t provide arrival info, and refunds aren’t possible.

✨ Your Personalized Guidebook
Once you're all set, you'll get access to a detailed guidebook with everything you need to know about the home, my favorite local spots, and even automatic updates for early check-in or the occasional late checkout! You can also share it with friends and family.

Have any questions? Just send us a message—we’re happy to help!

Italian Village puts you an 8-min walk from Short North's High Street restaurants, galleries and bars, and a 6-min walk from Budd Dairy Food Hall, our go-to when everyone in the group wants something different. Guests call the area walkable and say the backyard is surprisingly quiet and private. North Market is a 16-min walk; the Greater Columbus Convention Center is 19 min on foot and Nationwide Arena 23 min, or about 5 min by car. Fall game days at Ohio Stadium are a 9-min drive. For coffee or matcha, try Fox in the Snow Cafe or ZenCha Tea Salon nearby.

You have the entire home to yourselves, except the locked storage areas. Self check-in with a keypad smart lock. Park in the 2 to 3 off-street spots behind the house (depending on vehicle size), reached through a narrow back alley that is a tight fit for large trucks; paid street parking is available out front. All 3 bedrooms are up steep wooden stairs. The washer and dryer are on the second floor, in the hallway outside the bathroom.
