An excellent stay and a large room, and the location was pet friendly.
Pros:

The size of the room (it was essentially an apartment!) and the hotel's location. It was close to our areas of interest, but far enough away that it provided space to relax.

Cons:

n/a

We were in town visiting family and this property was very convenient and comfortable for our 1 night stay.
Pros:

Spacious unit in well maintained building. Beautiful grounds that even have a great dog park area. This location is a little off the beaten path, not particularly walkable but feels very safe.

Cons:

Not walkable to restaurants, drugstore/convenience stores but they are within a 5 minute drive.

Good base for Indy 500 weekend.
Pros:

We were visiting Indy for the Indy 500.
We were very happy with the location, and even though it’s a couple of miles from the track, we found that we could walk in more quickly than the cars that were trying to drive closer.
The suites are comfortable, and the facilities good.
Just round the corner from the famous Longs donut shop (which was sadly closed on race day).
The main bed was comfortable.
My brother slept on the sofa bed for three nights about found it comfortable enough.
The parking was straightforward on site throughout the stay.
Fairly close to downtown too.

Pros:

Prostorný apartmán. Dobrá lokalita, mezi centrem a Indy speedway. Jen je nutné počítat, že pěšky je vše trochu z ruky, používali jsme hodně Uber a autobus.
