The Mayor's Suite-Historic Downtown-Columbus, Indiana

3 bedrooms, 1 bath, living room, dining room, fully equipped kitchen. You just bring your groceries. Coffee cart with Keurig. Coffee and supplies are provided. Luxury linens. Bath with shower and soaking tub. Balcony for seating two. The entire suite encompasses the second floor. Sorry, not handicapped accessible. No pets. No smoking. Free WiFi. The third bedroom is a trundle bed and sleeps 1 adult or 2 children.

Streaming cable, Prime Video, HBO, big screen TV. Beautiful home in historic area...The first Mayor of Columbus, Smith Jones, built the house in 1860. Then in 1930 another mayor of Columbus, Karl Volland bought the house. He turned it into a two family home, as it is configured today! Walking distance to shops and restaurants downtown. The library and the Visitor Center are just a short block and a half south of the house. Wonderful area.

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.

Great Location!

The house was very cute, plenty of space for our family of four. We were in Columbus for a baseball tournament, and it was nice to have room to relax after a day at the ball field. The location was perfect for dining, shopping the outlets, and we had an easy commute to Ceraland Sports Park.

Multi-day Indoor Youth Football Touney

We arrived at 7pm on a Friday and departed at 11:00 sharp Sunday. My two sons, 10 & 12 and I participated in several youth football games at the Nexus Park complex in Columbus. I don't do well with loud hotels and kids running up and down the halls all night, so VBRO is the way to go. The house was very cozy, clean and with essentially four sleeping areas, wifi and full kitchen, we were right at home. We made breakfast each morning and enjoyed our time. Will stay again.Highly recommended.
