I stayed for the first time at Sonesta Experience and loved everything. Check in was easy and the staff was great. My room was one of the cleanest hotel rooms I have stayed in. Breakfast was served until 9:30, but I slept in. I highly recommend this hotel.

Liked: Staff & service, room comfort
I came to Indy for a business trip and the hotel was less than a mile away from my meeting. Initial appearance was great and service was excellent. After getting in my room, I noted the wall paper was coming off the walls, rust on the frame of the bathroom door, the carpet probably needed a steam clean. I forgot my computer and went to the Business office. No way to print anything and the net was barely working.
