Naturally puts one at ease. Quiet, peaceful and restful. Helpful, courteous & professional staff, but not stuffy or acting inconvenienced by the presence of guests. Go out of your way to stay here. Charming, quiet, clean .. makes you want to stay longer.

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.,

A stay with lots of historic touches, a very comfortable bed, and a nice breakfast included.
This is an amazing gem in Bloomington within easy walking distance of both downtown and the IU campus. The staff was very friendly, the room superb, and the breakfast amazing.

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.

It was a very interesting place, I wasn't expecting such an old home. Thats not a bad thing at all. My husband and I ended up leaving at 10pm to go back home because we felt like we didn't have privacy due to everyone staying there hearing everything in the house. The pictures of the room made it seem so much bigger than what you really get. If you like staying in a historic home then this is for you but if you want a private getaway then i would have to say go somewhere else. Friendly staff and guests.

Great spot
This is a very elegant and comfortable boutique hotel in Bloomington. Generally I’ve stayed at The Graduate but found this to be on par if not a little nicer. The location is solid, the room was well-appointed and comfortable (AC very cold!) and the breakfast was excellent. Would highly recommend vs. the chain hotels on a visit to Btown!
