I stayed before my shift at the local hospital, and was able to check in early in order to make it to my shift on time. The front desk person was very helpful and did not charge me an extra fee! Will be rebooking again before my next shift !

People often leave reviews when things are all bad. But I will do one for them being amazing. My family and I was stuck here until our house was ready and being new to this state we were upset about it. From the moment we walked into the doors until the moment we left everyone on the staff went above and beyond and I do mean everyone! The housekeeping lady who was so sweet. The property managers everyone was kind. Even the other people at the hotel. We felt welcome and comfortable and I just wanted to tell all of the people at this establishment that your staff is AMAZING!

Not an awful stay overall, but we noticed trash in our room when we entered as well as a few dirty or non-functional appliances. Litter containers outside of the doors for cigarettes is not the best look. Investing in actual products for cigarettes would be a worthy investment. The staff shall also ensure that the entirety of the room is clean. Unsure of the staffing levels but a revamped staff or management to better increase morale could additionally be a good investment.

Our first room was very musty. The staff kindly gave us another room, which was better but had been a smoking room at one time. Everything felt grungy - unvaccumed, stains on bedding, stains all over the carpet, ceiling paint peeling, empty vending machines, no coffee…. We usually pick a budget hotel, but have never had one that felt this dirty. We bought Febreze and sprayed clothes after we left.

When I booked my trip to Muncie for 2 nights with my 7 year-old son, I had options and chose this hotel. Good location, good photos, I’ve stayed at a Quality Inn before, all good. It was terrible, especially at the price charged per night. Pretty dingy, smelly, outdated overall. The remote control had leftovers of the body fluids of the past 10 guests. There is no breakfast to speak of. Pics show hot trays for eggs and bacon, all you get is a granola bar and watered down juice. We brought our bread, luckily, but they had no butter and I had to beg for jam. The toaster doesn’t work. Instead of bfast, we thought we’d go to the pool before our 4-hour ride home, but our room key didn’t open the door. The guy at the front desk couldn’t help, said to wait for the cleaning crew to show up. We didn’t have 90 min to waste. Positive: comfy beds and quiet room, we slept well.

It was extremely dirty and despite the price being resonable for a typical hotel stay, I consider it WAY overpriced for such unsanitary facility. There is No way they are cleared to serve food in that place. How are they allowed to do business! We left and were not offered a refund. Didn't care! Absolutely disgusting!
