Very Good

Everything was great here. The young lady at the counter as well as the one providing the breakfast were great. On Saturday we had nothing to do till the wedding at 5pm and the lady in the kitchen gave us some places to go shop. We had a blast..Thank you

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Plain spacious room. Everything a solo traveler needs for one night.
I was greeted warmly and quickly from staff and the checkout time was very generous. I was able to have breakfast and relax before leaving for my function.
The breakfast was good and enough.
The price was reasonable.
I will definitely stay therr again!
Room was quiet and clean… staff was friendly and check in was quick… breakfast area was clean, was normal breakfast food… seemed like a good quiet area to take a break for the night. The blue margarita was across the parking lot, was a nice place to grab supper.
The room itself was not very clean, we had to ask to be switched to a new room because of the first room smelling like smoke. The front desk attendant was not friendly and rude towards us. Would not recommend this hotel, there are nicer ones in the surrounding area.
The room was clean and the area was quiet. I appreciated that it was within walking distance of what might be the best Mexican restaurant in central Illinois (Blue Margaritas).
Reasonably priced hotel! Great breakfast! Stayed here after Starved Rock, Mexican restaurant right next door was convenient and good. Beds were comfy. Cleanliness could have been a little better in small details, but overall clean. Would stay here again!
