About this property

B-town Overlook

This 1 bedroom 2nd floor walk-up apartment is located in a Historical limestone house. The living room is full of light from extra tall windows overlooking downtown Bloomington. Marvelous and enjoyable, this cozy retreat offers everything guests need for a terrific stay. The bedroom features a comfortable queen bed, ensuring a restful night's sleep. The bathroom is well-equipped with a hair dryer for added convenience, due to the historic nature of the building the ceiling is sloped in the shower causing low clearance in part of it. If you're about 6ft or taller, please be aware. In the additional living space, guests will find a futon and a sofa bed, providing extra sleeping options.

There is a fully furnished kitchen for eating-in or it is only a quick walk to downtown restaurants. It is a quick 5-minute drive to Sample Gates and 7-minute drive to Memorial Stadium on IU Campus. Bloomington's B-line walking trail is one block away!

The apartment is accessed through the lobby with a keypad entry door.

Don't Stay Here

I have been using Vrbo at multiple price points for over a decade. I never had a problem until this rental. I have stayed at properties listed for under 100 and they were in safe, walkable neighborhoods with clean and updated amenities. The B-town overlook was rundown and in a struggling commercial district. It is advertised as “historical,” and came up in a search for Prospect Hill, which is a quiet, nice residential area. The listing is not accurate. I left after the first night and the host refused to reimburse me for my unused nights.
