Great hotel and location for those looking to explore Canal Park and Bentleyville (walking distance). We have stayed here a few times now and will continue to return. Kids loved the Hot Chocolate station! Our only complaint was that our room was not ready until 5pm (check in is at 4) and the room was freezing cold... We live in northern WI and are very acclimated to the cold, however, this was exceptionally cold for a hotel room. We had to use all extra pillows and couch cushions to block the window bases and outlets on exterior walls. Thermostat was turned all the way up but did not help.

Checked into the room and went to make coffee and there was a bottle cap behind coffee maker. Then went to put some drinks into the refrigerator and there was half a pizza inside. After those two issues looked and there was 3 weeks of dust on the refrigerator. When I called the front desk they made up excuses about the cleanliness and didn’t have any house keeping staff around to take care of it said I had to talk to the manager the next morning. The manager said there was nothing they could do because I had prepaid for the room through a third party. Don’t stay at this uncleaned place or you’ll get treated like the dirt itself

The price was right and the location was great to walk to Bentleyville Light Display and the Canal Park area. It was cold, so having the Old Chicago restaurant in the same building was a nice bonus. The suite was spacious and had more than we needed for this trip. Decor was very minimal, and the lighting was either glaring from overhead or minimal because of a lack of lamps. But overall it was a good stay.

Check in process was horrible....we ended up canceling our room and went home! Very late check in to begin with (4PM), but it wasn't even ready by 4:30 and no talk about any compensation. It was just my husband and I, and we like kids, but there were so many unsupervised kids running around (and this was a Sunday night) We knew that rest of our stay would not be what we needed.
