Negative check in experience. Could not understand the check in person due to very very poor English skills. Needed to use the printer hooked to the computer provided by the hotel. Printer did not work and the staff could have cared less. Not sure they understood me. Said to email an address and give them the material to print out. Major security risk. I declined

Exactly as expected.

Booked hotel for Illini Game overnight stay; hotel was just as you'd expect for an average Best Western. Rooms were fine, AC was good, check-in and out was non-incidental. Didn't try free breakfast, there is a very popular breakfast restaurant right across the street. They have ice water and coffee in the lobby 24/7 which was a nice touch. For those looking to swim, there was a reservation required where 5 rooms can swim at one time and no more than two hour blocks. This didn't matter to us as weren't planning to use the pool, but thought I would mention it to others as this was disclosed AFTER booking. Overall, would stay there again for another game.

The breakfast was very nice and obtainable wasn’t overcrowded and they kept it stocked if you’d like continental breakfast the pool is nice and the staff gave us fresh towels when we requested them and generally very kind And welcoming. Highly recommend this place for you for work or 4family traveling five stars.

A motel I recommend to visitors to Urbana

While right off the 74 freeway on Lincoln Ave. (excellent location), this motel gives off peaceful vibes as soon as you pull into the parking lot. A row of trees separate it from the highway, and the back is a pleasant green lawn. Rooms are a step nicer than budget minimal. Breakfast is fairly generous. My only negative comment is that the owner changes the Wi-Fi password very frequently, so you can lose connection the next day if you don't ask again.

Unable to get refund

We booked through hotels.com for 4 nights. We had to leave a day early. Since hotels.com is considered prepaid, we had to pay for the 4th night even tho we checked out early morning before and notified the hotel the day prior that we needed to leave early. No refunds. Will really consider whether to use hotels.com for multiple nights again

The guy working when we checked in was super nice and helpful. He even offered to make sure myself and the others traveling with me had our rooms close together. One issue was that the hotel ran out of wash cloths. The room was very clean, comfortable bed and plenty of room. The bathroom however is not ideal. Door does not open all the way for hitting the shower rod, when in the shower the curtain is too short and water gets in the floor, the door also barely misses the toilet so once in the bathroom you must close the door then slide to the toilet. Overall good stay, just not an ideal bathroom for more than one person.

Im grateful for coffee, some snacks and water at the lobby 24/7. The bed is very comfortable, better than other BW we have stayed. However, there’s very minimal protein selection for vegetarians on some days. The carpet feels somehow sticky in the room. I’m overall happy with the stay.

The ice machine was very noisy and being used to fill coolers. Perhaps management can put up a sign that instructs guests to use the ice machine on the 1st floor to fill coolers going forward.
