Top Downtown Bloomington Hotel Reviews

Brown County Inn

8/10 Good

"The buffet breakfast was really good . Had everything on it , pancakes , eggs , sausage , bacon , biscuits , gravy , cereal , home fries, hash browns . Something for everyone . The girl that seated us talked so fast that we had no clue what she even said she didn't have much of a personality. Our waitress Molly was very nice . Our first room was a first floor garden room . It was very nice . It was on the back side where the playground was. It was only in the 60's and the room was pretty cold so turned the heat on and it set off smoke detector. Called front desk and they sent a maintenance person in after we left for a show at Event Center . We returned 3hrs later and the smoke detector kept chirping. We called the front desk and because it would be awhile before maintenance could come and fix it , they put us in a different room . It also was on first floor and very nice . The patio was facing the parking lot but we didn't mind at all . They also gave us breakfast certificates. We thought that was nice of them to do that for the inconvenience. Over all I would stay again . This wasn't out first time staying here . There is also a walking path behind the inn that's really nice ."
