Patricia, Indianapolis

Disliked: Amenities
Beautiful Art Deco hotel built in the 1920’s. However, due to the age and location of the hotel it lacks some modern day convenience things that many travelers have come to appreciate and expect when traveling. Items like a functional Wi-Fi, pool and or hot tub, vending machines and sundries store where items can be purchased. I found none of these items available during my recent visit. Additionally there was no airports shuttle, no Uber or Lyft service available. Hotel staff stated the area was not considered to be safe to walk around, even 2 blocks to visit local cafe. Not much info available from hotel about places to go around hotel, or any hotel amenities. Hotel has 3 restaurants, but no menu in rooms, 2 were closed during the stay, and the roof top bar was closed and only open during summer. Beautiful place, but not likely to be back at least without tteaspprt
