The host was present at check-in and what a nice guy. We had a few life experiences in common, and he was very helpful about places to eat, etc. in the area. Place was very clean and organized. Would happily stay again if available for our planned trip.

Perfect location to be near my daughter and her family! Thank you!

I was in Indy on family business, and needed a quiet room for a week. Bruce's basement apartment fit the bill perfectly. Air conditioned, full amenities for light cooking, a soft bed, spacious 3/4 bathroom, comfy living room couch, and well-maintained outdoor space.Easy 1/2- mile walk to Broad Ripple Village restaurants, shopping, and the Monon Trail.Bruce is an excellent host who accommodated all of my needs and made me feel welcomed back to my hometown - while giving me space to deal with family. He's a nice, interesting guy with a great backstory.

When I booked this property, the listing described it as “Entire Home – Apartment with great location and off-street parking in the heart of Broad Ripple.” It has since been updated, but at the time, I wasn’t aware that it was actually a basement apartment in the host’s home. That said, when we arrived, the host kindly met us and explained the setup, which wasn’t a problem for us.While one previous review mentioned a basement smell, we didn’t notice that at all. Occasionally we could hear footsteps from above, but since we were out most of the day and back late, it didn’t really affect us.The host was very friendly, helpful, and responsive to any questions we had. The main reason for the 4-star rating is the bedroom setup: one room had doors, but the second sleeping area was more of an open space with a partial divider and no door, located right next to the bathroom. This made it difficult for the person sleeping there when others needed to use the bathroom during the night. I think it would be more accurate to list that space as an open sleeping area rather than a full bedroom.Overall, a decent stay with a great host—just a few listing details that could be clearer for future guests.
