4/10 Fair

very dated property, poorly maintained exterior and grounds, breakfast area was dirty no tables set up, interior of microwaved totally caked with food splatter -digusting, room was clean enough, door to bathroom was torn at the bottom and would not close fully with out getting stuck. Location is good for football games, and it is cheaper on football games than most others. I would not stay there again

6/10 Good

The staff was nice. The hotel has a great location for football games and it has parking. The room needs maintenance. If Yoo are going to stay here ask for the double bed never a king bed. It is a 2 star and will keep it like that but not for a 8.3 review. GREAT LOCATION. Could be a great hotel with maintenance.

The room was clean and comfortable. We had a room in the back which was right beside a park. Bed was very comfortable. Property had a nice courtyard with many plantings. There were also many weeds. Could have used a little more upkeep outside.

6/10 Good

I first have to say the staff was so excellent to work worth. We were already expected to arrive very late in the evening but then there was a wreck on the interstate so the road was closed down and no way to go around. We called the front desk and they were so helpful- they checked us in and was willing to leave the room key in a lock box if we arrived after 1am. We made it before 1am so they didn't have use the lock box. The room is ok- Bed was comfortable. There is a smell in the room that needs to be addressed. All the other hotels were booked due to IU football game. This was not the first choice but would stay again if needed.

Very nice and clean room. Breakfast bar reportedly open from 7 am to 10 am but the building remained locked up past 7:15 am. Called the manager who said he would show up in 10 minutes but would need more time for set up. For a business traveler like me that was untenable. Even though they knew who I was no return call or offer to compensate this very disappointing situation.
