A perfect downtown location, but on a quiet one way street. Once we arrived we were able to walk to restaurants, shopping, and church. We enjoyed the self-guided driving tour of the architecture and art, plus we traveled to the Mill Race Park, which was beautiful. We took the tour of the Miller House, which is a mid century marvel. The town is home to so many architectural landmarks, it is truly worth the trip. The Mayor’s House couldn’t have been better, with comfortable Queen bed, handy kitchen, and tastefully decorated surroundings. Highly recommend!

The property is charming and perfectly located. It gives you the sense of being part of the historic community. Quick walk to downtown. We would stay there again. Just a few items to be aware of: it is a duplex and the entire house is on the upper level, as you enter you must climb very steep stairs, there isn’t a dishwasher (wasn’t a problem for us - we ate out), the bathroom is teeny tiny, one of the bedrooms is at the front of the house and the bathroom is way in the rear of the house, the bathtub does not have any safety handles. Just items to be aware of when making your decision.

Cute, Clean, and Comfy

We very much enjoyed our stay, even though it was a short one. The home was very clean and very cute. The beds were comfy, the kitchen was nicely stocked with essentials, and the location was perfect. The owners were very welcoming and friendly. We unfortunately had car trouble while in town and were able to find a place to help us out in an emergency. So relieved to be able to make our daughter's graduation in Bloomington on time! We would love to visit Columbus again to see more of the city and its architecture, and we recommend this property.
