My oldest daughter is a freshman at IU. I was late to the party when it came to booking lodging. I found this listing. I originally booked it for me and my 2 daughters. With the date approaching, we had some change in plans and I had to add some family members. The owner, Ethan, was amazing and so easy to work with. Every time I had to apologetically change plans to add more family members, he always responded immediately with "no problem, I'll take care that for you " 100% would stay here again and recommend it to anyone needing a place to.stay in Bloomington. ##### Mutton C.
