It wasn't anywhere as it was advertised. The mattress was comfortable but everything else wasn't good at all. The bathroom faucet handle was about to fall off and literally hardly any water would come out. The shower had very little water pressure at all. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone.

This is probably the best place to stay in Benton, IL, which is only saying a little bit. The room was . . . fine. Kind of shabby and in need of renovation, but basically clean. They actually have a breakfast, and it was . . . okay. The staff seemed to be competent, though we only dealt with them at check-in.
