This property is beautiful!! Well maintained and a good location. The property managers are great too. My major problem: The yellow room had these orange/red curtains. As soon as the sun came up. The whole room was brighter than the sun because of the hue from the curtains letting the light come in. Big problem: Zero hot water. I only put my head under the shower head because the hot water was completely gone. It was the coldest shower of my life. Problem: Some dude did dishes for like 40 minutes in the morning at like 830am with no regard for anyone in the house who was sleeping. He was extremely loud! The house was beautiful and in a great location, but all i wanted was sleep. I arrived late from the casino and just wanted a good night's rest. I maybe got like 3 hours sleep at most. I was praying for a hot shower to wake up. No luck there. It was a long day after all that. --The bed was very hard as well. Would've been a 10/10 if not for these things.

hospitality in the midst of classic beauty

Finding Art and Lodging was a bonus to a get-away stay in South Bend. A beautifully restored home, this space also is located in a neighborhood within walking distance of the Oliver Mansion, the IU Civil Rights heritage center and some fine restaurants. A small place (only 8 guests at a time), this home has been meticulously up-dated, is clean, with a comfortable bed and a room heater which was just right on a cool evening. Our room had a half bath attached, with a full bathroom just down the hall. Our only concern was running out of warm water in the shower after a fairly short shower. Available snacks, a shared kitchen (well-equipped) and an easy-to-manage entry, along with a helpful text with parking, entrance and hospitality details made this simple to enjoy! Beautiful art throughout the home added a visual bonus; I'd love to take the stained glass lamp shades home to my home.

South Bend getaway

Our stay at Art and Lodging was comfortable, clean, quiet, and inexpensive. Of course, the particular guests who are using the other three bedrooms while you are there will vary and their behavior can't be predicted, but the owners/hosts were accessible and friendly, and we were lucky enough to have quiet co-guests. There is plenty of space in the big common areas, and we took advantage of the "gallery", the kitchen (chalkboard art!), and both the front and back porches. We also took a pleasant stroll around the neighborhood and learned a little history about the nearby memorial church, Oliver mansion, and public natatorium. Very nice.
