Top hotels in Near Westside

Candlewood Suites Indianapolis Downtown Medical District by IHG
We had a 2 BR king, which was like an apartment. Very clean. Staff was courteous. We did not like the TV remote which was complicated to someone who only wanted TV, not internet etc. Could not adjust thermostat past 68 which was a little cool but good for sleeping.
