The theme of the house was very neat with the old car collectibles. Very easy to enter & leave, not too far from downtown. Good for visiting South Bend, I would definitely book again.

Interesting place. Kind of funky and eclectic. I felt like I was staying at my grandmother's house. The floors were creaky and I had a half bath off of my room with a shared full bath. I wasn't crazy about the shared full bath option, my room was kind of interesting and had lots of posters of the Studebaker sky hawk. I was pretty comfortable, but did not have a TV in my room which I kind of missed. Glad I only had one night there.

I love old houses and the room was very cozy, clean, and homey. Check in/out couldn't have been easier. I wish we had more time to check out South Bend!

I can't say enough nice things about our stay in room #7 at the Avanti House. This is an old house, and with that comes both the charm and quirks of an older home. The couple who manage it do an amazing job keeping it up, and everything from the architectural details to the tributes to a classic car legacy make this such a charming place to stay. The location was an easy walk to so many wonderful restaurants and landmarks around South Bend, and getting to Notre Dame was a breeze. I know where I'll be staying when I come to visit my baby for her freshman year next fall!

Our room was a bit run down with paper peeling off the walls. At first glance the inside looked very nice with old furnishings but it was not quite what we were expecting. Guess the description guesthouse should have clued us in. We never did find the shower. No TV in the room. Wifi fine. Bed was comfortable. The AC did not cool our room down very well.

If you are looking for a nice place to sleep, this is the place for you. They have a kitchen and a bathroom that are quite small but do their job. It’s clearly an older house, but is really well maintained. Everything was clearly labeled and it’s easy to find your room. Only thing is you have to deal with other people, so if you are expecting a house to yourself you would be wrong.

Stayed in The Loft at 131 Chapin. Code access worked perfectly. Extremely clean. We were happy to have a decent sized refrigerator to keep tailgate food cold. Loved having a Keurig in the room and microwave. We had everything we needed in this spacious and charming loft. Loved it.

It was very cute! It is an older house so the floors creak, the only issue we had was someone turned the AC off at one point and our room got pretty warm becsuse it was a shared temperature.

It's a little "old-fashioned boarding house" mixed with AirBnB, but it really is worth a stay in this historic house, turned hotel. It's not a traditional hotel, with a check-in desk and staff in-house, and it's an old house with smallish bedrooms, shared bathroom facilities, and creaky wooden floors and stairs. I thought it was charming enough to make up for it. The house is chocked-full of memorbilia for the Studebaker Avanti automobile - advertisements, new articles, art, models, photographs. An irreplaceable collection. Located across the street from the Studebaker museum and within walking distance of the South Bend Cubs baseball field and some restaurants and breweries.

The only down side was the size of the bedroom which is typical of bed and breakfasts. We really appreciated the new bed and personal attention.

The property was as described. It had a lot of memorabilia related to the Avanti. There were simple selections for a self serve breakfast and snacks. There was a medium size fridge in our room. The queen bed was very saggy in the center. My husband slept there. I slept in the twin bed which was better, but I had air blowing on my face everytime the ac kicked on with no way to adjust the vent. There was a nice sitting room available.

This place was amazing and so was the couple that owns it. They made me feel right at home, not at all worried about staying in a place with others and comfortable right from the start. It was so cozy i didn't even feel like I was traveling. Loved all the cars and decorations of the home. Will definitely stay again!!!!

Our stay is good, just a side note from the age of the building stepping on some areas of the floor has a bit squeaky noise but overall the place is quiet and have a very historic museum on the ground floor.

For an older house, very efficient. All rooms were super clean. The best part was its use of historic details to chronicle the time period of the Studebaker/Avanti connection. Little things, like the doorknobs, towel racks, wood molding, light fixtures, themed coverlets, framed pictures and articles on walls, even the sink skirts (!) added to the charm and character. Convenience to University of Notre Dame campus was a huge plus for me. Contact with owner was easy. She returned my texts/emails quickly while being friendly and helpful. I would definitely stay at The Avanti House next time I am in South Bend area.
