Overall, not our favorite VRBO. We were in town for a wedding, not a university event, so we wanted this side of town to be close to family. The house needs some work, there is a strong damp smell throughout and we encountered a few bugs indoors. Also, furniture isn't the same as pictured and the living room set is very stained. Positives -- the host is easy to reach and the beds are pretty comfortable.

Our two families were so pleased with the house property. They liked its colorful walls everywhere and its lower lever with its wide, colorful chairs and arcade game, as well as, the large backyard. Overall, a grand time in Bloomington!!
