When we checked in the host's accent was difficult to understand. If he spoke more slowly, I believe it would be easier. On our first evening, we were able to get online. For the second evening, we could not get Internet service on our computer, but did appreciate having Netflix on the tv. There was one electrical outlet that we could not use to recharge our phones. The toilet rocked, needed to be set securely to the floor. Hosts Sunday morning were helpful in carrying a suitcase. We missed having a rolling cart to bring in bags. Didn't like the perfume in the carpet in the hallway. Pretty good for an old building. Wish the pool had been functional.

Perfect for what we needed
It was great for all we needed. We're in town for a soccer tournament and my kid wasn't interested in swimming so this was perfect for what we needed. Cheap, clean and close to the soccer fields. They had I highly rated haunted House next to the hotel but my family was too chicken to go to it. Slept great. Free continental breakfast hit the spot

Mosquitos were in the room every night, small bugs flying around and I didn't leave food out because i didn't eat there. The wifi was cutting out but I understood because of the storm but the bugs were not necessary.

Excellent staff and lovely rooms. Nice breakfast included in lobby. Have done a very good job with a hotel in an area that is somewhat inconvenient and a building that is not very nice looking on the outside.

This was literally such a wonderful place!! We travel for work and stay at hotels about 20 nights out of the month. This place was by far one of the best we have stayed in! The beds are without a doubt one of the best beds we have slept in, the hot water & water pressure was amazing & the TV was massive! We will definitely be adding this one to our list to stay when we come through Illinois 😊

This is not your typical "hotel". It's on a decommissioned Army base and it appears to be a former dorm room. The grounds were not kept and the area is a bit seedy. I would not stay here in the future.
