Paint doesn't fix everything
What a cobbled together dump. The location is great and there is local bars and restaurants nearby. Other than that the house itself is trashy. From the floor falling apart to the unfinished drywall that's just been simply painted over to the poorly done additions. You can tell this place was very quickly flipped by people that did not care about quality. One very nice large master bedroom and two tiny closets they call bedrooms. The one in the back is so poorly built you hit your head on the ceiling because it's so low

Very cute little home in Indy!
Overall we had a very positive experience staying here. The property was a little less clean than we had been expecting, but that would not stop us from staying here again. This home is in a very nice part of Indy, about 20 minutes from downtown. The neighborhood feels very safe, and the parking is not an issue. Parking is street parking only, but we never had a problem finding a parking spot in front of the house. The beds were very comfortable as well! Thank you for hosting us, we had a great time!

Wonderful week in Indy
My wife, three kids, and I stayed at the property in May and had a wonderful stay. The house was in very nice condition and was clean for our stay. The neighborhood felt safe and was quiet, even though there are some questionable houses on the street. All in all we would stay here again.

Indy Visit
Our visit was a 4 night stay in this precious cottage. We were visiting with family who live downtown. The house was convenient to downtown area and the interstate. It was very clean and well decorated. Four adults were able to sleep comfortably here. The neighborhood is older, but very quiet and we felt very safe coming and going as needed.

Not worth the time
Had to spend extra money to get TV service. The flooring is horrible. Especially around the refrigerator, seems as if any day it’s going to pop up and injure someone. It’s moist like-cracking- severely dipping. Had to worry about the children.

Great place to stay!
A friend and I met here for a reunion and this property was absolutely perfect! It was nice that we each had our own rooms and bathrooms on opposite sides of the house. Everything worked properly, it was well supplied with what we needed to cook meals which saved a lot of money. Beautiful property and I would definitely stay here again when in Indy.

Sweet home!
This is the perfect place for two to four adults to stay, IF none of them need to sleep in the third "bedroom". Not really a bedroom, and the bed there was very not comfy. HOWEVER, everything else was nicely decorated. Know that there is not off-street parking, but we did not have a problem finding parking.
