ontherise219 Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 I was just on Priceline looking to reserve a room in advance. So I was reading reviews and The DaysInn downtown sounds like a real Nice Joint. Pretty much they said it was the dirtiest place around. From the sounds of the reviews I would be better off sleeping in my car. Has anyone stayed there? Are the Reviews spot on? Here are the reviews http://travela.priceline.com/hotel/hotelReviewsGuide.do?key=fomaevrh&propID=52190&static=N&jsk=2103010a1f03010a20081212033623831911323896&plf=PCLH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clive2246 Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Do NOT stay there. We stayed once and it was pretty disgusting. I wouldn't stay there again if it was free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ontherise219 Posted December 12, 2008 Author Share Posted December 12, 2008 Thanks for the heads up I already reserved a room off of Southport like 10 mins away But I was reading the reviews and thought I would ask if it was that bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdrodd1 Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 The Hampton Inn in Plainfield is very nice and clean. It is at I70 and 267. West side of Indy. 15 minutes from downtown Indy and good places to eat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbarnett Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 We had 5 rooms there one year.... 3 were really bad (ripped carpet, holes in the wall, torn shower curtains, etc) , one was average, and one was OK. Because all we did was sleep there, and because the place was 100% full with other wrestling people, we did not feel unsafe. Rooming next to Dexter Larimore's dad and brother didn't hurt anything, though It's cheap and it's certainly the closest hotel you can get, but I'd stay in the Southport area.... 10 minutes away on I-65 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdrodd1 Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 I am kind of shocked about that. I had to stay there a few years ago when my house caught on fire and it was very nice. I also know the owner and he doesn't seem to be a penny pincher. With the new airport terminal just a couple of miles away now I couldn't imagine that it would be in bad shape now. Anyway, I will call him up and see what kind of condition it is in now and let you know. There are a couple of hotels in Brownsburg that are ok also. I74 and 267. About 20-25 minutes from downtown.

ArmyVet80 Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 They just opened a new hotel up off of 82nd St and Shadeland Ave. It's about a 20 minute drive downtown on the Northeast side. Rooms are reasonable $79.99 a night according to their sign. It's a brand new hotel so it can't be too dirty yet. lol. You have plenty of places to eat and go out and relax at after a long day of wrestling if you don't want to pay the crazy prices for downtown hotels. I know that I have been looking at downtown hotels for when I get married in June and the cheapest place I found was $120 and that was Embassy Suites. We are looking to get a block of rooms for the out of towners but don't want to make them pay an arm and a leg seeing as the economy is in shambles. The hotel up off of 82nd and Shadeland Ave is a Drury Inn incase you want to look into that. To get downtown you would just have to get on Binford Blvd and follow that until it hits Meridian right by Ivy Tech. Turn left onto Meridian and it'll take you directly downtown. The only reason it takes 20 minutes is b/c of all the stop lights. lol. Just like going down 31 to get to Indy and getting stuck in Kokotucky (kokomo).

XCard Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 If you are looking for cheap and a close place to Conseco then it is not a bad choice. May run into notapillowbitter and company there, as they have been known to frequent that locale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ontherise219 Posted December 15, 2008 Author Share Posted December 15, 2008 I think I'm going to stay at the Days inn now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
decbell1 Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 I will also be testing my luck at the downtown Days Inn. Even though the rooms may suck, you can't beat walking to Conseco at 5:30 in the morning and being the first one there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clive2246 Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 Walking sounds great in theory. When we stayed there was a foot of snow on the ground and nothing shoveled between the 2 places. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ontherise219 Posted December 15, 2008 Author Share Posted December 15, 2008 So I should bring a pillow, lysol and a snow shovel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

busstogate Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 I enjoyed the Hampton Inn in Castleton. Watch out, those Elkhart and Northrige folks will wipe out the continental breakfast! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmypock Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 If you want a bar and an adult shop in the parking lot (literally), with a strip club across the street then stay at Americas Best Inn. Otherwise avoid it at all costs...even if it's free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trinedad Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 So I should bring a pillow, lysol and a snow shovel If you are going to bring all that, AND we have a foot of snow on the ground, talk to me, I am sure for the price of the drive, and sidewalks, I can get you down to conseco by 5:30 AM. Heck I might even spring for a cup of coffee on the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ontherise219 Posted February 12, 2009 Author Share Posted February 12, 2009 The Days Inn is no longer open. I was informed today that they had a pipe bust and ruin 60 runs so they closed down the Hotel. We have been moved to the Park Place by IUPUI. This is the New party spot. If you have reservations I would Call 317 638 7438 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tangarrray Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 Has anyone stayed at the Park Place? If so how was it? They do have a complimentary downtown shuttle which could come in handy if they run all nite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
