Bare kitchen utensils, couldn’t cook. Two towels for the bathrooms. Rude neighbors who asked who I was and what I was doing there. The threatened me with Calling the cops if they seen me partying.
Stayed 1 night in May 2026
Response from VrboOwner on 20 May 2026
Sorry you didn't have an optimal experience. No one has ever said that there were not enough utensils in the kitchen in over 3 years. Additionally, there is a linen closet in the downstairs bathroom with towels for at least 20 people. Additionally, I have never asked a neighbor to engage with guests. Have a great day!

You can only sleep 5 adults at the most. The "human dog bed" can only be used for a child. There is 1 King, 1 double, 1 love seat sofa sleeper that can only sleep 1 person. The love seat sofa was terribly uncomfortable so I would recommend to only use for small children. The kitchen is fine if you plan to eat out or bring food in. There is no cutting board or mixing bowls or bakeware so as long as you are not planning to prepare food the kitchen would be fine. The property was clean and served our needs for the weekend.

We came to Indy for a one night stay. The home was very clean and space was great. Our host was always quick to respond which we also appreciated. We asked for an early check in and were grateful for this allowance. We were able to drop our luggage and then go to our next destination.We would highly recommend this property and would stay there again.

Hi Amanda, I think the errors on the listing have been corrected. Never intended for it to appear as if it were 4 bedrooms.
