The Fontana is a hidden gem of Indianapolis. It's tucked away and should be on bold display. I absolutely love It's beauty an̈d design. There wasn't a microwave in my room but it did have a mini refrigerator. I can't wait to go back for another stay.

Everything was fine, especially the friendly staff. The hotel is hard to find, because the sign on the street has the name in such small letters that it is easy to miss (we drove by twice before finding it). The room was excellent, although the faucet on the sink was loose. But otherwise a comfortable, clean hotel that is a welcome change from the usual chains.
