It was definitely small/cozy but convenient to convention center and where I was working for the week. Clean and great parking. Host immediately responded when there was an issue with WiFI. My only issue was that there was only one small pot and one small skillet for cooking and there was no can opener. I brought my own food to cook each night and was limited. Also there were no drawers or shelves for unpacking clothes. I am sure if I had mentioned any of this to the host they may have supplied me with something but I knew I was only there for the week working so I made it work.

Host knows wifi did not work so i had 2 7 year old girls who were supposed to practice their cheer routine and were unable as i couldnt even stream with my hotspot or stream. Router was no where in unit. Fireplace did not work. Floors were freezing due to no baseboards. Water was hot. Coffee maker did not work at 5am when i woke up to do cheer mom things. Tried to flip breaker but no outlets would work so i drove down the street spent 10 on coffee as i had cheer girls to get ready for competition at 10am at Corteva. Which is why i booked this place because it was a little over 5 miles and cancelled my hotel. Almost wish i would have got hotel we would have free breakfast working cable and my friend slipped in the back on the ice as there was no shoveling done. This is how i know the owner does not live on site. Would not book again. Very disappointed

Perfect little home base for activities and food in Indy! Clean and updated and off street parking is a plus! Within walking distance to Fountain Square and a quick drive to other activities. Would suggest Core's Cottage to anyone who is looking for a cozy place to stay!

Simple. Easy.
Mostly what I needed. A table would have been nice for productivity but made it work. I liked that I was a mile walk from the FS action.
