While I read several reviews and looked at other properties, this property stands out as a unique piece of history being restored, repurposed, and brought back to life. It offers modern amenities while repurposing the existing structure. I appreciate that they kept the walk in closets and kitchenettes. Having had family stationed here, the stay brought back many memories. I definitely recommend this place; we had a great time and loved everything about it.

Another great experience at this location! Room was clean, breakfast good, and the desk clerk was extremely helpful. When we were looking for pain relievers in the middle of the night, and there were none available, he even was going to offer his own, had he had any. The next evening, when approaching the door with hands full, he hurried to open it for us. We will be returning!

Staff is nice. Building is clean and quiet. I like this place because of the location. It’s off the busy roads on its own. The rooms are big. Great value too! Perfect for anyone staying north of Champaign or around the Gibson city area.
