Very convenient going to the colts game. The pool was very cold and was too cold for even the kids.

The location was perfect for an event we were attending at Industry. The rooms were large, comfortable and reasonably priced. There is a nice gathering area in the lobby. Although the breakfast was free with good variety, the quality wasn’t great but ok.
