We stayed here for our daughter’s UIUC graduation. The staff are friendly and they had good breakfast. The facility is a bit dated and it’s understandable because it’s a former military base living quarters converted to a hotel. It was a short drive to the campus.

Nice budget friendly hotel. Hot breakfast bar is a plus. A couple minor issues. The rooms are not cleaned daily, would love to have fresh towels daily and a restock of coffee. The room had a musty smell.

The staff was awesome. The hotel was dated. The neighborhood was questionable. The room was immaculate; the hallway not so much. The price was very reasonable. I was in the area for one night prior to the Illinois Marathon in Champaign and the hotel served the purpose. Would probably stay there again unless price went up.
