Categories

Cleanliness

Staff frequently described as helpful and friendly; however some service lapses (poor breakfast replenishment, inconsistent breakfast service) were reported. Overall staff interactions were a strong positive.
Location
9.6
Consistently praised for proximity to Ball State University and local amenities (Walmart); location is a clear strength for guests.

Rooms are clean but often described as dated with small/tight bathrooms, uncomfortable or worn mattresses, and occasional maintenance issues (sagging glass shelf, leaking shower valve).
Amenities
7.6
Basic in-room amenities (small fridge, microwave, decent TV) are present and clean, but property lacks features (no elevator), has unreliable internet, and inconsistent AC performance.
Value for Money
5.5
Multiple guests felt the price was too high for the quality received (dated rooms, limited breakfast, small beds), indicating poor value for the rate paid.
Food and Beverage
4.5
Breakfast received recurring negative feedback: cold/poor quality coffee, burnt or reheated eggs/sausages, not replenished and inconsistent over multi-day stays.
Overall Experience
9
Overall impressions are mixed but often positive due to friendly staff and excellent location; however, maintenance, breakfast, and value issues tempered some stays.

Okay Place
Pros:

Property was good, but breakfast was inconsistent. During 8 day stay, eggs and sausage were plentiful and fresh each morning at the start of our stay. However, with each passing day, the quantity diminished and it was obvious that what was available was reheated from the previous day. By day 8, the only eggs that were available were the four dried out patties from the day before. Lots of room for improvement there. Room was clean and refreshed each day. Refrigerator wasn’t working upon arrival, but was replaced promptly. Glass shelf in the bathroom (room 114) needs to be tightened. The shelf is sagging to the point where items slide off into the sink. The shower water valve also needs to be resealed. The shower drips constantly.

Pros:

Barely above decent considering the price point. Breakfast is not great, beds were horrible, and bathrooms are very tight. Overall it’s very dated, but extremely close to Ball State University. Plus side it doesn’t have carpet, has small clean fridge, clean microwave, and decent tv channels.

Internet access was unusable most of the time. AC was off when we arrived, it was 90+ degrees outside and it took our room over 8 hours to cool.

Pros:

We found teeny tiny small black mites in the sink and around the jetted tub. Not sure what they were but I do not think they were bed bugs.

Horrible Price for the Quality
Pros:

I paid 149.00 per night for this on hotels.com. The beds were quite small and the kind that has a metal base with a headboard that is attached to the wall, but not the bed. The room WAS very clean, but it was a cheap room for the price. There was no elevator, and I was traveling with another who can't climb stairs. Breakfast was ridiculous - very tiny and burnt up sausages, gelatinous gravy, obviously fake eggs, and a couple of yogurts in the fridge. I don't expect luxury for a continental breakfast but have attended many hotels with better quality. The staff were friendly, and the hotel was clean, but the quality for the price was ridiculous@
