The staff were very attentive. The breakfast was incredibly good, better than most restaurants. The room was spacious and updated. The sitting area in the main building had preserved the wood - crown molding and walls. Very beautiful.

We arrived at the main house & Allison checked us in. She was extremely pleasant & knowledgable about the property & homes. We stayed at The Composer House. We had a balcony room & it was simply stunning! The place is cozy, charming & the bed was super comfortable. The made Ti order breakfast was delicious. Thank you Ella for taking care of us! We can’t wait to return!! 6 minutes from IU campus

This was a lovely B&B. We enjoyed the porches in the Composers House as well as a glass of wine in the the garden outside of the main building. The breakfast was a multi-course culinary extravaganza: fresh from the oven blueberry muffin, bowl of fresh fruit, and your choice of an entree. I had the stuffed pancakes with the most delicious sausage links and scrambled eggs. Only issue was that there was quite a bit of outdoor partying going on in nearby houses until about 2:30 am (Thursday night/early morning Friday). As I'm a lighter sleeper, a sound machine would have made this a non-issue. Loved that it was close enough to walk to boutiques on the square and to campus.,

Great experience but I do wish the breakfast menu had more options Also it was a little noisy at times with the music playing and doors slamming. The neighborhood is safe enough and adequate parking. Overall it was a decent experience but not amazing. Thanks.
