Overall it was a great experience. I have noticed in more than one stay that the rooms were not totally clean. Some time back, I noticed the shower floor had footprints from me walking around the room barefooted. This visit, I noticed the floor felt a little grimmy.

Disappointed in friendliness

The place wasn't as friendly as I thought it would be. Nobody said good morning or good evening as you walked past the front desk. If you went in the side door you were greeted with smoke from the smokers. Overall, it was OK but not worth the price. Shopping was nice and the people there were very friendly. Breakfast was the same thing every day for the 3 days were were there.A little variety wouldn't hurt. The rooms were nice and bed was comfy. Overall, I would shop around town again, but would probably stay near Goshen or South Bend and drive into town.

I feel that if you’re in the hotel business and you walk up to the front door and it’s little with cobwebs and everything else I know it’s this time of year that stuff should be cleaned. You’re outside areas for sitting or dirty. The bathrooms were dirty the hallway bathroom for all your guests to use in the bathrooms and the actual guest room rooms. The room rooms were dirty. The bathrooms are dirty two things that need to be clean to make people feel comfortable. I did not feel comfortable there because I felt it was too dirty for my liking other people may be OK with it, but I was not.

Not the hotel I’d stayed at there before that I was so impressed with. But it was clean and comfortable and it did have an elevator. Breakfast was good. Was just an overnight stop with family.

Great hotel, very pleased with our stay. The only suggestion would be to have one of the 2 areas to sit outside to be nonsmoking.
