Positive Reviews
positive:
Convenient location
Reviewers liked the location just off highway I-70 and the Interstate 465 ring road for offering easy access to the heart of Indianapolis. There were also handy roadside amenities like convenience stores, eateries and gas stations nearby. Some guests, however, had safety concerns about the surrounding area after dark.
positive:
Simple but adequately comfortable
Many budget-conscious reviewers said they enjoyed a comfortable stay in clean surroundings at this property, which was reportedly basic but fine for a short stay. The competitive room rates, pet-friendly policy, free parking and free expanded cable channels were factors in plenty of guests describing the motel as offering decent value for money. However, some critics said the rooms were a bit small and that charges for Wi-Fi were a drawback.
