I found the hotel very easy to find. The room was clean and quiet. I would stay here again!

	Date of Stay: June, 2009
Friendly staff, clean room, close to expressway. Smoking room did not smell as fresh as it should have. This hotel met expectations. Very friendly staff and the check in process did not take long. Room was clean but smelled stale. A little air freshener would have taken care of that. Very close to expressway.

It was not crowded & close to the interstate. The hotel was in desperate need of repair & moderate cleaning & our toilet did not flush. The beds made our backs sore. Our experience at this particular hotel was both relaxing and frustrating. Our toilet did not flush properly. The hotel had an older smell and needed some better up-keep but none of this hindered our spirits because we were treated nicely & privacy was respected. The staff was friendly & the fact that we were there to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life & relaxing from children, we had a pretty good time and found the inadequacies rather comical.

My husband and I was pleased overall with our stay. The location was great for us. We were there for the race at Indianaplolis speedway, and it was close enough, yet far enough way that it was not congested. The only thing that we found that could have been better with the room was the sheets would not stay on the mattress.

Comfortable room. Breakfast was weak. This hotel was as described. Quick access to interstate and comfortable firm mattress.

i have to say that i have stayed in many of hotels. this in one in particular was horrible. they have to hotels coonected to eachother so when you need service they rely on a camera and one guy that works both counters. there are no taxi services that will pick you up. so if you are on a vacation without a vehicle then you are out of luck. i ended up having to pay for things that i dont even lknow what for. i do not recommend this hotel to anyone. STAY AWAY.

Friendly staff. Fine for a short business stay.

This hotel was dirty and nasty! There was nothing to like about it. The pictures online were nothing like the actual hotel. It advertised an indoor pool. The swimming pool was in the Super 8 motel next door. The two hotels shared the pool. The exterior of the building was out dated and there was trash and empty beer cans in the front lawn. The hotel smelled terrible and the temperature was around 60 degrees inside. The room itself looked liked it hadn't been swept or cleaned in months. The chairs in the room were covered with stains and the lamp shades were broken and hanging off of the fixtures. When we went to check in I had to use a phone at the front desk and call for assistance. Come to find out the lady running the front desk was also running the front desk at the Super 8 next door. Once she got over to us the phone rang and she answered it Super 8. Needless to say, we didn't stay long. Once we saw our room and talked about it for an hour or so we decided not to stay. When we went to leave the front desk was unattended again and no one was around. I left the keys in the room and left.

It was clean, and close to where we needed to be. The hallways smelled like stale smoke from cigarettes. It was clean, but needs some updating. The staff was at the desk when I checked in, but did not see anyone on duty the rest of the evening. It seemed strange that no one was in the lobby.

	Date of Stay: May, 2007
The continental breakfast was nice. The hotel refrigerator did not work. The hotel is fine for a short business trip. The continental breakfast was nice. In the mornings and on Saturday their was front desk personnel.

	Date of Stay: January, 2007
Free breakfast. It was not very clean. The price of the hotel was high for the quality I¿m used to from it, I got much better hotels for much less.
