Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Great staff breakfast room is Immaculate not a problem here might look strange on the outside but the inside is better than any regular hotel or inn I’ve been too
Wanted a place to stay that was no frills and clean room to spend the night. This place was perfect for our needs. Room was clean,
People working the front desk were very nice and the coffee was good
the staff was very accommodating breakfast was ready timely and sometimes early to allow us time to eat before leaving the hotel for our event. highly recommend
We were very pleased to find this very well-run and reasonably priced place to stay about 30 minutes from UIUC. Everything was clean, the staff were friendly and helpful, the food was good and they even had free water to take. 5 stars!
This hotel was a little bit of a drive for us but worked out great! It's very clean, quiet, the staff was extremely friendly and the breakfast was one of the best we've had. Scrambled eggs, bacon, homemade waffles, fresh fruit and many other things were available in the morning. The price was also much better than some of the other places we looked at in the area. I'd totally recommend this hotel.
People were very nice, great service. The carpets and the parking needed work. But overall, the owners made everyone feel welcome. Good breakfast. Very clean
Hotel is clean, comfortable, and quiet. A short drive from the University of Illinois, and a pleasant and affordable option when so many others were preying on visitors and price gouging for the weekend festivities. Staff were exceptional!!! 10/10
