Totally fun and Totally Convenient
We had a great visit here. It is so spacious and so very well supplied for comfort and ease. Mid century modern decorations were amazing and fun to live with, especially for us senior citizens, since we grew up in that era! The location is so convenient to Ball State and fast to any other locations.
