Extended Stay America Suites - Indianapolis - Northwest - I-465 (9370 Waldemar Rd) Title: Unreliable and unethical. Cancelled a year-old race weekend booking 48 hours before arrival. I booked a 3-night stay at this property nearly a year in advance (June 2025) for the 2026 Indianapolis 500 weekend. Just 48 hours before my scheduled arrival on May 22, I received a cancellation notice via Booking.com, citing "construction." Let's be clear: canceling a reservation two days before one of the biggest sporting events of the year under the guise of last-minute construction is highly suspect. It is far more likely the hotel realized they could re-list the room at a massive premium to desperate, last-minute racegoers, leaving a long-term customer stranded. Securing affordable lodging for Indy 500 weekend requires planning ahead, which I did. Forcing a guest to scramble for accommodations at peak-holiday pricing because of the hotel's greed or poor management is completely unacceptable. If you are booking this hotel for a major event, be warned: your reservation means nothing if they decide they can make a quick buck off someone else at the last minute. Avoid this property. They do not honor their commitments.
