Pros:

Very clean! Greatly appreciated!

Cons:

The shower - poor water pressure. Very squeaky door to get into the bathroom. The automatic light sensor when I got up to go to the bathroom , the bright light suddenly turned on when my son was still sleeping. I understand we were probably in a handicap accessible room. Hence, the phone by the toilet- haha! Overall, good stay. Thank you.

Pros:

The location was convenient visiting family in Valpo and Chesterton.

Cons:

The breakfast didn't have anything my husband could have as a diabetic. No cold cereal and only sweetened oatmeal. A banana or apple would have been nice.
