An Extraordinary Stay

Although my stay was top notch from check-in to check-out, the included breakfast (from a menu) stood out as the best I have had at a hotel or B & B. It was incredible as was the wait staff who took my order and delivered exceptional service.

A wonderful B&B. There is the main house but we stayed in the annex called The Composer in room 110 (2nd floor, corner room). Breakfast was delicious and well worth the stay. Only drawbacks: 1) the only have ROKU service so we never were able to access cable news 2) it is a double bed but comfortable.
Bathroom (shower activated by pulldown plug under bath spigot).
Includes timer controlled fireplace.
Great windows/shutters.

I had a good time at Showers Inn at Bloomington. It is a family owned business, so kind of relaxed and chilled. The room was spacious. The breakfast is made to order and is of high quality. The property is right near the downtown, and close walking distance to shopping and dining options. It rains a lot at Bloomington, and is very humid, so beware of mosquitoes and bed bugs.

What an absolute hidden gem! My room was HUGE & the bed was so comfy. I stayed in Composer building and I couldn't have been more pleased. The courtyard was so adorable!!! We were visiting for graduation so I unfortunately had leave before breakfast was served, but I will 100% return. This was one of the most adorable and lovely hotels I have stayed at in a very long time.

Lovely bed and breakfast. Very friendly staff and helpful. We stayed in the second building which is not as nice as the main one. Found old cookies etc in the. Abi eta otherwise nice room. Main issue was noise. There is a frat house or similar very close and we were kept awake until 5am with very loud music and constant shouting. Not good fro a nights sleep.

Wonderful inn!

Our stay was a short one, but I wish we could have stayed longer. Everything about the room was so comfortable and so nice from the bed, the linens, a table to do work, and sitting in front of the fireplace. Breakfast was delicious. I would definitely stay at Showers Inn every time I come to Bloomington!

Comin’ Back!

Bloomington native visiting town for a Saturday evening. I’d always known of the Showers Inn growing up and throughout adulthood so it was fun to actually stay! The staff’s service was excellent and friendly. The room and bathroom were so charming and beautiful! The bed was super comfy and I was pleasantly surprised by how delicious our breakfast was before heading back out of town this morning. We also got to walk Home comfortably after spending the evening downtown. Will return!!!
