The host was very responsive and allowed us to check in early to get changed for a wedding, which we were very grateful. Upon entering the house a strong smell of cat urine and mold, we changed rather quickly and left. Some of the beds had stains on them. Since we did arrive early we understood it would not be fully cleaned, the housekeeper did tell us she was finished with the bedrooms though. We did not stay at the house due to the smell. The front yard is all overgrown and unwelcoming. Very quiet neighborhood and close to where we needed to go. Wish we could have stayed since we paid for it and live 2 hours away, but the smell was so horrendous we decided to drive home.

This property was a mixed bag. It was not fully cleaned, and was sparsely furnished. The landlord was very communicative but did not follow through on his promises. We encountered the following dirty items: -Urine and hair on the toilet -Water and soap splatters on the mirror -Hairs and dust on both the bathroom sink and in the shower -A half full glass of old stagnant mirror on a window sill -The floor was not swept, and was covered in cat or dog hair that made our socks filthy -The sheets on two of the beds were not clean. Upon raising these issues with the landlord he promised to refund us half the cleaning fee. Later when I followed up with him regarding this he stated that I had not left him a 5 star review. When I communicated to him that my understanding was that the refund was to compensate me for providing substandard accommodations not for a five star review he terminated communications with me. The above issues aside, my friends and I did enjoy our stay here. The dining room was very large, with a good sized table perfect for chatting and board games. It was nice that we were each able to have our own beds, though the 1 bathroom was bit rough. The neighborhood is exclusively residential and was very quiet at all hours. We were there 2 nights and did not see any of the neighbors. The location was very convenient for visiting Notre Dame, the South Bend farmer's market and for shopping.

Excellent location …. and good communication w the owners when necessary! Great option for visiting ND as the price seemed pretty reasonable

Nice clean rental in a good location for events at ND

Very roomy....nice that all of us could have our own bed and room. Temperature of house was perfect. Enjoyed the overnight stay!

Very happy with this home.

Had a great time with friends and family. we all enjoyed out stay even for just a night. host was very understanding and such a joy to work with.

The property was generally clean, spacious, and situated in a quiet and safe part of town. We found it easy to get to Notre Dame and our favorite restaurants near downtown south bend and in nearby Mishawaka. The host was a wonderful communicator and very accommodating. My party had a wonderful time and I would recommend this place to other groups.
