Very pet friendly, clean. There aren't any eating options in walking distance but if you have a car, it's very close to lots of good places. I will be staying here everytime I visit my college kid. I found our place! Highly recommend.
This has a convenient location. And it was fairly quiet. However, our room had mold on the bathroom ceiling and not just a little. The staff was polite and nice, but hard to find. Pool was closed and drained.
I loved having the kitchen. While we did go out to some restaurants, it was nice to be able to have some groceries on hand. Staff was amazing. I will definitely be stay there again.
This is a cute little suite! A decent kitchenette that would be great for an extended stay. conveniently located off the highway and close drive to downtown Bloomington. The room, bedding, bathroom, and lobby looked clean and professional.
It is a nice hotel with suite room. Good for business travel and personal trip

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.
The bed was comfortable, parking lot was fine, the low score I gave was due to the lack of hand soap by the sink and body wash in the shower (both bottles were empty). When I went down to the front desk to report this, the clerk said she would get some from supplies and bring it to our room, which she did soon after. The room was a bit dirty with trash and dirt on the floor behind the nightstand between the beds.
The room was really clean, the facility had everything an extended stay should have. The room was in good shape, appliances worked well, promised supplies on hand. The staff was friendly and eager to help.
Heartily recommend it for category.
Really great place to stay! Loved the suite set-up, full size fridge, proximity to interstate, personable & efficient staff, and cleanliness. Faucet & black-out curtain needed minor adjustments to function optimally. Highly recommend!
