Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The room was clean and comfortable, but I had to request a move to the first floor due to my disability, and there was a noticeable bad smell in the hallway. The service was friendly overall, but I felt like an inconvenience asking for additional sheets. The location was convenient near the interstate, with easy access for driving around town, but some facilities like the coffee maker were problematic. The dining experience had its drawbacks, with peeling off surfaces, but the pastries were enjoyable.
The hotel was conveniently located near Illinois State University for Family Weekend, but the room had a strange smell and was cold upon arrival. The service was prompt and pleasant, although there was some issue with the door. The location was good for our needs, close to the interstate. Overall, it was a decent stay for the price during our road trip.
