I think there are plants better adapted to inside the house. If Creeping Charlie and coleus don't get enough light, or it is too warm, they will get lanky (read: ugly) very fast. Sansevieria is the king for neglectful caregivers, in my opinion. They will survive high or low light, regular water or treating almost like a cactus. The Hahni birdsnest types are more compact. If by "air plant" you mean the tillandsia, they are not that easy because they need pure water and don't live on just air, as the name implies. But if you mean Airplane Plant (aka Spider plant), that is an excellent choice. They grow fast and can handle a dose of neglect, too.
