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.

We stayed at this property while visiting a local university for parents weekend, and it is just what we needed. Exactly as written in the listing, very clean, wonderful neighborhood and easy parking (which can be a challenge in Indy!) Great location that is walkable to wonderful Broad Ripple. Bruce was very accommodating letting us an an extra day last minute as well. Thank you for opening your home to us!!!

Great Broad Ripple getaway.

Great location! We stayed in the main house, rather than in the basement apartment. It was extremely clean and free of clutter, which I love in a guest house. We fixed a few meals in the kitchen, and it had most everything we needed. Walking distance to restaurants and shopping. Great little breakfast/coffee places nearby. If we visit Indy again, I think this will be our go-to.
