Categories

Cleanliness
8.2
Mostly praised as clean and well-maintained in many reviews, though there are notable exceptions: reports of ants in a room and a severe cleanliness failure at a relocated sister property (crumbs, suspected bug residue) lower the score slightly.
Service
9
Multiple mentions of very helpful staff (Christina, McKenna, Javen) and friendly front desk service; isolated incidents of an irritated front-desk employee and the major service failure of an overbooked reservation reduce perfection but overall service is a strong point.
Location
9
Frequently noted as convenient — close to many restaurants, shopping, Ball State campus, Walmart and local attractions; clear strength across reviews.
Room Quality
8.8
Rooms are repeatedly described as comfortable with good beds and suite options; a few issues noted (room near stairwell noisy, one relocated room at sister property was in poor condition) but overall room quality is high.
Amenities
8.7
Amenities such as a pool, suite-style rooms and meeting space are highlighted positively and kids enjoyed the pool; some minor complaints about pool hours and desire for a more memorable complimentary breakfast.
Value for Money
7.8
Mixed sentiment: many guests found the stay pleasant but a number call out high price or question value, and the overbooking/relocation incident significantly harmed perceived value for affected guests.
Food and Beverage
8.4
Breakfast is consistently mentioned and appreciated (including gluten-free options); descriptions range from 'yummy' to 'typical' and some guests went out for nicer breakfasts, so quality is solid but not exceptional.
Overall Experience
8.9
Overall positive experiences with cleanliness, comfort and helpful staff dominate, though isolated serious issues (overbooking, a very poor relocated room) and some value concerns temper the score.

Comfortable, overall staff were helpful and kind.
Pros:

McKenna and Javen were amazing with helping us get the meeting room situated and set up for our friend funeral reception

Cons:

We did have ants in our room and told the front desk, that person was less helpful and seemed irritated that we asked for help with something, she didn’t provide her name.

I had a very relaxing, comfortable, enjoyable stay.
Pros:

The facilities were clean, attractive, fresh, inviting. My room was very comfortable and had everything I needed.

Cons:

I wish the pool was open earlier in the mornings. It would have been nice after the fire alarm went off to be alerted as to what actually happened.

They overbooked and canceled our stay while as were on the road there from 3 hours away and moved us to their sister hot
Pros:

Absolutely nothing because they overbooked and left us without a room. A room that we booked months in advance.

Cons:

I didn’t get to stay at the property. My booking date was for June 19, 2026. When I got to the hotel after a three hour drive, a hotel stay I booked months in advance because I was dropping my daughter off at Ball State University for a camp there the next day, we were told they overbooked and we now didn’t have the room we booked months ago. They moved us to a sister hotel down the road, which they said we could “just walk over to, it’s just next door. Thank you!” We had a bunch of luggage and the hotel would have been a 15 minute walk down the road. That’s not exactly next door. The room we had at the Room 2 hotel was filthy with food crumbs everywhere, crumbs on the bed, what looked like dried bed bugs eggs on the bed, dried beds bug eggs on the floor, and a broken sofa bed. And because every other hotel was booked for this camp, the next closest hotel would have been 30 miles away.
