Very clean and quiet area. The staff was very friendly and efficient. Nice, newly renovated bathroom. Great downtown area with fun shops and lots of food choices.

6/10 Good

Second time there. They do a great job on cleaning but there too much humidity on the room coming from the floor carpet
Jose, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The hotel offered good value for money. Some areas such as stair carpets are a little worse for wear and the breakfast could be improved but it was certainly worth the money

Safe place to stay; in desperate need of updates
Cailee, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

The carpet was stained. There were cob webs in the corners. The shower curtain was yellowing. The hvac unit was moldy. The window did not lock. The blankets were scratchy. The sheets were dirty. The front desk attendant was gone. My neighbors were loud. There was vape smoke wafting out into the hallway. The breakfast was gross.

My husband and I stayed here several times and now that he is gone I stay there. It is always fresh and clean. The staff are always accommodating.Good people!
Margaret, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

The room had a very limited amount of places to plug in my hearing aid / and Cochlear equipment and my computer lap top. The staff were friendly , but not available. You had to use a phone at the front desk and call them . I do appreciate them as they helped me get my lost piece of personal bag returned or shipped.

Craig, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Convenient to the football game we came to see
Stephen, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Clean but extremely frugal amenities

The bed was comfortable. The mattress was clean, but the box spring cover looked old and soiled. The blanket was old and worn. The pillows not the greatest. The coffee maker was placed high up in a closet and there was no coffee or cups. There was just one chair in the room. No paper or pen. No phone. Only one half-dollar size soap. One tiny tube of shampoo. Only one roll of toilet paper—no backup roll. One washcloth. Breakfast was cereal or a few pieces of pastry. The hotel had sufficient parking. It appeared to be owned or operated by people from India.

It was very clean, nice, and close to where I needed to be in Vermillion.
Dennis, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great location. Currently being renovated but they were careful to give only rooms far enough from the work that we didn’t hear any of it. Staff was so nice. Would stay again.
