Clean room. During my first stay, the room was quite small, but on my second visit I received an upgrade to a larger one (paid extra). The breakfast was very basic — a simple cold spread with nothing cooked. Overall, considering the price and location, it was good value for money

We’ve stayed at Cascades many times over the last several years and really enjoyed it. This time was below average for several reasons. Our bed spread had several long black hairs on it. The group of people in the room above partied literally all night long. The breakfast use to included some hot items like bacon, sausage or biscuits and gravy. It’s now just some cereal and toast. Lastly, the staff was less than helpful but more specifically the person who checked me in. The whole experience was disappointing.

This is a central location when visiting family, this is our 3rd time staying here. The staff was very accommodating. Lots of activity in this area, especially if Indiana University has a game. Lots of dining options within a reasonable driving distance. Room was comfortable--some of the electrical outlets are not easily accessible--bring an extension cord. Definitely an older facility.
