2/10 Terrible

Rusty V.

Disliked: Cleanliness
This place should be avoided. The host is completely unaware of how unclean their place is. The house smelled strongly of pet odors. The couch and rugs were stained or dirty. Closet doors were broken, and the house was generally unkempt. I would not recommend staying here at all. Make sure to read the reviews and notice how long the gap is between them. If people stay at this location, they’re leaving terrible reviews as well. Again, avoid this place—the description does not match reality.

Great stay!

I was very happy with everything! It was very clean. I appreciate all the special touches. It was clear that the host did their best to ensure the guest had a good experience. It was a perfect place to come with pets and with children. I will be planning to stay here again the next time I come to Indianapolis. Thank you!
