Indianapolis offers a variety of lodging at multiple price points; however, after considering the lodging possibilities in the area, we recommend staying at Butler University’s Irvington House. It features simple private rooms with a shared bathroom for $600 for the week; $420 for week if double occupancy (you select the roommate); room rate includes linen rental. Additional fee if checking out day after workshop. No telephones or televisions are provided in the rooms. WiFi is available, and Irvington House has a bicycle room.
