There was no service except to put new towels in the bath and take the others. No changing of the sheets. There was no ice at the location. The air conditioner worked well but the room was dark and the water in the shower/bath was brownish.

The Foster Inn is a quaint 12 room 1950 style motel. My room was very clean, quiet, and the owners are friendly. The bed was great and I slept like a rock. The room amenities were a small refrigerator/freezer, microwave, shampoo, soaps, hairdryer, everything other motels have. It is very simple, comfortable, and clean at a very reasonable rate.

Very clean and well kept up and not a trace of that old smoke smell which seems to plaque nearly all the other facilities which I have stayed in recently. A little off the path, but quaint. First time I have been given a real metal room key , instead of a computer card,,in a long time. And I liked it.-FBP

Very nice hotel.
Our stay went very well. We were in town to visit our son at U of I. The hotel was like 20-25 mins away from the university which was ok with us. Room was very clean and neat. Friendly service. The hotel was also located in a nice quiet area as well. Would stay again.

Despite the place looking dilapidated, the room was surprisingly clean and had shampoo, hair dryer, fridge, microwave, and complimentary coffee. Much better than the Motel 6 in Springfield IL that was noisy and didn't provide shampoo or hair dryer. We liked Foster Inn so much, we chose to stay an extra night.

The couple who own this are very nice. It is not a fancy place. Bed was comfortable and it was a good value. Someone else commented on the tiny bars of soap. I like that as big ones dont get used up and are thrown away and thay is wasteful. I used to clean condos in Colorado.and threw away a lot of soap

Exactly what I hoped for
I was going to be in town for my son's engagement party and needed somewhere just to sleep before heading home early the next day. I read the reviews and the price was perfect. The only issue was the car parked outside our door (a silver Jag) playing loud "bass thumping" music for over an hour around 5am...the room was clean, the beds were good enough and I would stay there again.
