Basic accommodations at a reasonable price. Well equipped kitchen if you are in town for several days and don’t want to eat every meal out. Conveniently located fairly close to IU at a reasonable price.

Horrible staff
I was on a company trip, for 3 days. I paid for 3 rooms as well. The desk clerk falsely accused my adult work crew of being loud and smoking in the room. After offering him and staff to enter room , to prove we were not doing such a thing , he evicted us and said he was calling cops. Keep in mind , I have an adult crew, 50yr old plus , and we are not kids, but this “kid” was rude, unprofessional, had no proof whatsoever and no argument or respect. We also asked to talk to upper management, but he resorted to the back office like a baby. Horrible experience, and no refund was granted for the days we did not even stay.

Staff should really be shown how to properly clean. Parking wasn't terrible but everywhere else that we have stayed had better parking set up. And if it's raining.... you are definitely going to get wet if your trying to load or unload your vehicle as there is no covered check in lane

Arrived to a room that had a stain on the comforter and leftover food in the refrigerator. Also, there was a random comb in the bathroom, obviously less left by a previous guest when brought to the attention of the staff they were very friendly in offered another room, I was going to be gone for a couple hours so I just asked that they clean the existing room and I would be back later. Room basically needs updates. Shower curtain rod was barely hanging in the wall and there were stains on the ceiling. Towels and toiletries were super nice however. Staff was very friendly.
