It was an ok hotel.
Pros:

The area

Cons:

We came here for the pool but we can’t use it that day because of some renovation they are doing on the first floor. Ice machine not working in 2nd and 3rd floor. No shampoo and conditioner but called the desk and she did bring us some.

Beautiful facility
Pros:

Very clean facility. Great staff

Cons:

I do not like booking thru 3rd party sites. The phone number on the site was not the hotel but a VB booking site. As a result I was not able to use AARP or AAA discounts.

5 stars. Comfortable, super clean, great staff all for a reasonable price. We will be back.
Pros:

The SouthShore Drift Co. is AMAZING. Best hotel food I have ever had. I usually skip hotel meals because they’re typically bland and not worth the money, not here! I’m so glad we tried it. It was amazing. Big servings, great quality.

Clean, quiet and comfortable. A very good hotel
Pros:

We stayed here on 6/21-23/26 (2 nights) in room 314. The hotel was easy to find, had plenty of parking and looked good outside and in all the public areas. They have a in house restaurant.
Our room was good sized, clean quiet and the bed was comfortable. There was a microwave, fridge and coffee maker. The internet was good.
The bathroom was decent sized and had good counter space.

Housekeep is only provided every 2 days so we did not use it

It was about a 20 min. drive to Indiana Dunes NP visitor center.

There is a Bob Evans restaurant within a 2 min walk.
Breakfast was OK (pancakes were over cooked) to good(crab Benny, fruit, eggs over medium) but the kitchen was slow. There is coffee and hot water out 24 hours across from the front desk.
Check in and out were fine.
We enjoyed our stay and would recommend the hotel.
Note: Because all the front parking areas have some degree of slant. loading and unloading with a luggage cart can be tricky.
