First visit
Pros:

My favorite brand of hotel is Holiday Inn Express. I think i might have a new option at the IHG properties. Hotel Indigo is a swanky, upscale hotel. This one is in a refurbished paint factory. The decor is great, and the room layout gives a lot of space to unwind. The service was excellent. I was attending an event at a nearby location, so I did not get to sample the breakfast or the bar. This location is highly recommended! The photos are of room 430.

Wonderful stay, loved the rooms, the cleanliness, the staff and all the amenities. Will stay again!
Pros:

Everything was great from the front desk staff to the rooms (beds & pillows were the BEST) to the coffee bar for coffee & breakfast. We were there for a gala and the front desk person shuttled us to the event just down the road because it was windy and cold out. So grateful for the top notch service!

Cons:

This isn't really a complaint or something I didn't necessarily like, but the parking structure next to the hotel did not have a covered walkway to it and valet service wasn't available. That being said, it was just a short walk to the structure so it wasn't an inconvenience, unless it had been raining. But it was covered parking, so that was nice. Parking was $20 per night.

Fantastic stay
Pros:

Hotel overall was stylish clean and quiet. Room was incredibly comfortable

Cons:

The curtain didn't go all the way to the far wall which allowed light to come in. I work 2nd shift so I need darkness to sleep properly.

The water pressure was light and the shower door made a terrible screeching noise when being moved.

Simple, relaxed, and enjoyable. Wished for a kind gesture to soften the "trendy paint factory" vibe.
Pros:

I liked the in room coffee machine and the quality of the coffee. All the soaps and shampoos we quality. The shower was well designed for singles or couples. Room to move and get in the groove.

Cons:

No complimentary water for the coffee. Although the $6.00 bottle mineral water was a nice option, it seemed a little excessive for coffee. Also, no snacks in the room. At $200 a night a health bar or nut candy would have been a nice gesture. In the old days, a chocolate mint was a sweet reminder of care and comfort. Words are a cheap gesture of marketing love, whereas the item itself is a complete gesture. It goes a long way when words or forgotten. Especially theses days.
