Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort

Never again

The hallways smelled like bug spray, wall paper was peeling off the walls, rust all over in the bathroom. Not very many plugs to charge phone. Both nights kids above us ran around making so much noise, on the second night ended up calling down to see if they could get the people to stop, and they just called back saying they couldn’t reach the room. It was miserable unable to get any good sleep.

It honestly should be torn down and rebuilt. And definitely is the only hotel in that area without a shuttle to/from the airport.

How about a bar of soap for the shower and another for the wash basin? Having only one was really inconvenient, especially when paying Indy 500 weekend rates! Being cost-efficient is good; being cheap is not.
