We were welcomed by the stench of the lobby and the smell continued to our room. Bed cover was ripped and dirty and was not washed for years. Stains in the toilet. Hot water will stop abruptly. We understand the hotels are crowded in this area due to the large number of families coming to Bloomington. But this place is not the place to stay. Please do not add additional stress staying at this place. Not ot mentiona they charge very high price. For an additional $20 there are other clean hotels in Bloomington. If there is an option to upload photos we could have uploaded the photos of the filthy rooms.

Very bad rooms

Checked it to first room got there and it smelled very moldy that’s because cause the air conditioner had the entire floor soaked! So I tried to cancel, but they said they couldn’t give me my money back because I booked through a third-party so they gave me another room. Got to this room and my TV did not work and they couldn’t call maintenance so I decided to take a shower and when I went to the bathroom, I noticed mold all on the ceiling. At this point I was feed up took both keys downstairs and left! Filed a complaint now wa in response! I really don’t want anything short of a free room and my money back it was awful!😡

The staff were nice. The room was fine. The only real issue was there was no ice available in the whole hotel. I checked in and I felt that the should have been spoken of during check-in and not after when I went to my room and noticed that I didn't have a ice bucket. Having a fridge in the room with no ice in the freezer didn't help my one night stay overnight
