Renata’s Bed & Breakfast

There were 3 couples that stayed here for one night, and we all enjoyed it! If needing a place in the area this would be a the place to stay. Location is just off of 70, easy off and on. Not far from airport or track.
Has 4 rooms (king, 2 queens, and 2 twins) each with private bath. Large community area that has a wonderful fireplace, side area you can enjoy for smaller area with a large breakfast table. Everything is nicely keep.
Spoke to Renata about me bring a little treat for a early birthday celebration. Well, she too prepared apple dumplings along with brownies for us to enjoy. She gladly make a pot of coffee for us and we truly enjoyed her company while at the B&B! And yes, she had wine glasses along with the bottle opener for us to use as well.
The breakfast started with coffee, tea, juice, fruit cup (bananas, raspberries, strawberries) and yogurt on the side. She ask us if we would like her to try a new recipe on us — pumpkin french toast — this one was a winner. She served bacon as well as German sausage. And of course, the maple syrup was warm (she knows now to serve it!)

When you stay at a bed and breakfast, you never know quite what to expect, so I’ll do my best to give you some ideas of what you’ll find.
First, location: the bed and breakfast is very close to the airport and about 7 miles from downtown. I thought that would be a little inconvenient, as I had to be downtown every day, but some days Renata gave me a drive, some days I took a cab (about $ 20), and I always knew the bus was there as a backup.
Bed: the bedroom is an important part of the experience; there are four rooms each with a theme (and a common area). Each bedroom has a private bathroom with shower. I found the bed quite comfortable (firm, but not absurdly so), ample closet space, and just a relaxed comfortable space. There’s strong wireless Internet and cable television.
Breakfast: Renata remembered both needs and preferences of multiple guests. The breakfast included protein every day (boiled egg, bacon, cheese, omelet, etc), fruit, some dairy, and a bit of something sweet. Hearty or light, coffee or tea, you’ll be pleased.
Something more: Renata herself is a delightful hostess. She’ll make your trip even more special. I’m a somewhat shy person and don’t like forced intimacy – and that’s not what I’m talking about. She’s simply genuinely friendly and thoughtful. There is a common area for guests, so you don’t feel that you’re interrupting someone’s home. And there’s a little electric candle in every window, which is truly welcoming when you come home late at night.
And that’s the main thing, I think, you are very likely to feel that you are indeed coming home.
Review based on 5 night, 6 day stay in early 2014.

Such a warm and friendly atmosphere Renata creates for her guests. Lots of wood working in this older two-​story home near the airport. Private bathrooms in each of the 4 themed rooms upstairs. There’s even an event room and outdoor gathering space with huge fire pit. It may not be huge or Hilton, but it IS comfortable and convenient. What else matters?

Wow, what a coincidence. I was there the same weekend as Mary F. Renata had booked the entire B&B with motorcycle racing enthusiasts. One might think that a retired German woman in Indianapolis wouldn’t be the perfect match for that group, but then one would be wrong. Renata’s sparkling and joyous personality was contagious. At her place you feel special. She did cab duty to the speedway to save some guests from a rip-​off cabbie and offered us shuttle service to the airport. And her breakfasts are massively hearty too. We had a great time in Indy and this B&B helped make it a special weekend.

Renata’s B&B is great! A group of us went to the MotoGP races and stayed at Renata’s this last weekend. We couldn’t have asked for a better place. Renata’s home is beautiful, in a great location and Renata was a great hostess. We were treated to an amazing breakfast every morning, yummy! On Sunday, when we got back from the races drenched from the rain, Renata had a hot pot of coffee and a german fruit tart waiting for us when we got home. Renata’s is a hidden gem and I wish her all the best.
