The Cycle Inn - on the Monon Trail Downtown Indy

This home is decorated beautifully and has a lovely theme. Check in was simple. The owner is gracious and easy to work with during our stay. It was quite and we had no concerns for safety. There are plenty of stores and restaurants nearby. The beds were a bit on the firm side. There was no TV in any of the bedrooms. The layout was a bit awkward and lacked any space to move around in the bedrooms. The downstairs bathroom had no hand soap, but was well stocked with other bathroom amenities (shampoo and conditioner). Shower is TIGHT if you are over 6ft. Overall, this home was clean, safe, decent location and meets requirements. The overall feel is that you would like to have amenities and space for the price.

Beautiful place. We had 6 people in our group and had plenty of room. Close to Mass Ave restaurants and also Circle Center area. Only thing I would suggest is more serving dishes and a couple of baking sheets. Also would be nice if there was a card table for playing games. Would definitely stay again.

Great experience and very nice and clean place

Just a long weekend away with friends and our stay was perfect. Pictures are very accurate, check in, communication with owner, and check out were very easy. The neighborhood is quiet and in a good location for anything we needed or wanted to go to. We appreciated the cleanliness of home and the extra towels. We would stay here again for sure. Thank you.

Townhouse was incredibly clean and comfortable. Appears to be an up and coming neighborhood with just a short trip to downtown.

Very clean and nice. Stayed for work so not at the property much. Beds were super comfy and we really enjoyed our stay.

We had a great experience at Dale’s house. He was very responsive to our communications and we enjoyed our stay. Great location and convenient to downtown.

We traveled to Indy for a large swim meet and with 2 teenage boys and a 6 year old, getting a hotel for 5 is inconvenient and impossible. This location was only about 10 minutes from the natatorium and close enough to restaurants and a grocery store that feeding hungry swimmer was no issue. The house appears to be renovated and separated into 2 “townhomes” of you will, so we could have rented the other half for more room but it was not needed at all. The first floor has a comfortable living space and kitchen. I think the photos showed an area rug in the living area, but it wasn’t there when we stayed. Not an issue except be brought our 65lb dog and the floors are laminate and slippery for her. The kitchen was well stocked and all appliances worked great. The downstairs has one bedroom with a queen bed, and a shower. The washer/dryer was located right next to the downstairs bath. The only thing we noted that about the downstairs was that the floor was cold. It was winter and snowy, about 20F. It was so chilly that my dogs water bowl was made super cold! Since we didn’t wear shoes in the house our feet got a little cold, but my youngest had her slippers and we all just wore socks. The upstairs was very nice. Two king bedrooms. The larger one had really great open windows and sunshine. Of course my middle son took that;) it was well decorated and had plenty of comfy linens, as did the other king bedroom. The beds were super comfy, as I believe they were memory foam. The bath was fine, a tub with a shower and they even had extra supplies. Since my boys didn’t bring shampoo/conditioner they stole mine and luckily there was Pantene in the cabinet of the upstairs baths. Lots of nice towels, perfect for 5 people and swimmers who need a shower after a day competing. I will note that the smaller K bedroom has a unique slant to the floor, which is made obvious by the dresser in the room. Once you put clothes in it the slant in the floor causes the drawers to slide open. You just have to give them an extra nudge. The neighborhood is quiet except for a house being built across the way. The whole are is being taken over by a company who is doing renovations in an odd eclectic modern style. Best part is the bike trail right behind the house. I’m a runner and I was able to take my dog out for a 5k. The trail goes much farther. We also extended our stay by 5 hours and the owner was very easy to work with. Overall GREAT, and we’ll be back!

Completely renovated space with all the comforts needed! Easy access to downtown and walking with my dog on the Monon! Had an initial issue with electronic access but owner responded immediately with alternative! Top shelf space and 2 king and 1 queen bed made everyone happy!

Very convenient to downtown Indianapolis. Location is in an up and coming neighborhood. The townhouse was comfortable. We would stay there again.

The property was perfect for caring for our grandson after he had hip surgery at IU Health Methodist Hospital. Layout was spacious so he could easily maneuver with crutches. First floor bedroom and bathroom were ideal. Would definitely stay again.

My family of 4 was very pleased with this unit. It's a great spot within driving distance of downtown. We were in town for a convention. The unit was clean and had everything we needed. There is a McDonalds, Kroger, and a few restaurants within a 2-3 minute drive. Parking in the back wasn't a problem and seemed very safe. Would stay here again! Thanks.

Our niece got married in Indianapolis and this property allowed our two families plus siblings to be housed right next to each other, so that was great. We had the door open between the two units most of the time. The location was ideal, and we found it really easy to find our way around in Indianapolis. My only real issue was the lack of flexibility with the bedding: just a sheet or a super warm comforter, nothing in between was available except a few small throw blankets dotted around the unit. It being October, the first day was 82 degrees, and subsequent temps were in the 60's. I sleep cold, my husband sleeps hot; it was a challenge. The temperature of the house was fixed; we were unable to adjust it. The stairs creak pretty badly - not an easy fix. The units were clean and well-appointed with dishes, etc. Except a tea kettle. That's a lack that almost every place of accommodation has. Using the coffee maker makes the tea taste like coffee and microwaved water cools off very quickly. Yes, I just used a pot on the stove to make our tea, which no one would expect to do for coffee. So, reading over my review looks like I made a lot of complaints, but still gave 5 stars: the questions asked were specific and the place is geared for 5 stars for those specific things. The addition of a tea kettle and more flexible bedding would help.

This was our first VRBO and I'll say what a wonderful, amazing, easy stay it was. The house was perfect. Clean, modern, well decorated and had all we needed while we were in town for a convention. Check in and out was super easy too. Dale was quick to answer any questions we had and we would certainly stay here again if we come back to Indy! Quiet neighborhood, and a lot of the houses in the area are either new or being renovated, so it was enjoyable to just walk around near the house too! We spent most of our time downtown and we rented a car, but it was a short easy drive to park and enjoy downtown Indy. So much history there. Thank you Dale for making our first VRBO experience one that we won't forget.

Great location. Easy to get to restaurants and had everything you needed. We would consider staying there again Thanks, Dale!!!

We really enjoyed our stay at the Cycle Inn! The place was spacious enough for our group to hang out and sleep comfortably. Everything was easy from booking to checking out. Would highly recommend staying here!

Close by to the trendy areas of downtown. Loved the bike path and used it daily!

We attended a convention in downtown Indy and this place was perfect. Super clean - super cute - great location and all the creature comforts of home. I parked my Jeep in the back of the house and left it there all week because the Uber ride was $10-15 one-way while parking in downtown was $30 to $45 ( ridiculously high) . Cute little bars and restaurants within walking distance and if you are into bicycles or running, there is an amazing trail in the backyard. As a veteran to VRBO properties , I would definitely stay here again and I highly recommend this property to others. Great space -

Liked the house but parking situation was troubling

We had a very fun and awesome stay at The Cycle Inn, Dale the host was very helpful and responsive. Everything was perfect from living room to bed rooms and restrooms. Kitchen was amazing too, everything was very neat and clean. We definitely recommend this place for staying, Indy downtown was very close and parking was also all time available on the street. Again thank you Dale for all the help and assistance.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this lovely home! The layout was perfect and cozy and was a perfect location for us, since we love to rent the bicycles through Indy Pacer and a station was less than a block away! We wanted to note for others, in case it matters (it did not to us) that the walls are very thin and you could hear the other occupants quite well. Overall it was a great experience and we give it a five star rating :)

Great place to meet up with family and friends in town...easy walk to shopping and dining...comfortable place

Over all experience was good. Suggestions would be to repair the stairs, have more tv’s with with cable channels, and work on backyard.

Booked with Dale for a week and had the most amazing stay yet. The property was thoroughly cleaned which was greatly appreciated. Location was perfect with the Monon Trail literally in the backyard. I would highly recommend. Thanks again. -Jeremy

Our vacation was very close by our children's activities. The town houses are adorable comfortable bedding, the social area with design & high tech connections. Everything you need to have a fun visit.

Liked it a lot.

Dale was amazing- very responsive. Loved the place. There were 6 of us and it worked perfectly. We would definitely return!

When we showed up the cleaning staff was still there and had clearly not cleaned the property. It was filthy. Dog hair and dust everywhere and surfaces barely wiped off. The front window to the porch was pulled open from the top latch and we couldn’t figure out why the house was freezing for the first few days we were there. When we went to close it finally, we learned it didn’t even properly close an latch - a major security problem. The Nest was set to ridiculous temperatures at night so we were never comfortable. The drawer holding the silverware was completely broken and didn’t open/close. The kitchen was minimally stocked and most items in the cabinets were dirty. It was incredibly loud between the two sides of the duplex and we had to ask the neighbors to quiet down one night, and another few nights we couldn’t escape the endless barking from another guests dogs. This stay was a complete nightmare, to say the least. Would not recommend.

This property is adorable, and would be a great spot for family or small group of friends. Upon arrival, we had a mix-up with the readiness of our rental, but Dale was very accommodating and problem solved for us quickly. Check out his other rentals if you can as well, we ended up staying at another and were pleased with the home and location.

Dale was a great host. I sent a late night text on arrival day when we had trouble accessing the property and he responded within minutes. We brought our pups with us and he granted us late check out the morning of our departure, so we could join friends for a quick brunch downtown before we hit the road. Beautiful, stylish duplex with nice decor and modern renovated surroundings. Plenty of towels, comfortable bedding. Great location to several areas within and outside the city. The Monon Trail is right out the back door for walks, running, etc. Overall, great stay!

Great space and nicely furnished. We joined our daughter and her family who had the other side of the duplex. Love that it all opened up together. Only concern was that top comforters on beds did not have a fresh clean outer covering. We just put some clean sheets over the comforters. Was nice to be on the Monon trail and enjoyed a nice brisk walk.
