Stay here again

We stayed here before. It is so convenient to IU. Staff are always friendly, and the room is so quiet, comfortable bed, and a quiet "hidden garden" that is so serene. It has plenty of towels, cups, coffee, tea, in the room a nice soap and body lotion.

Lovely hotel

I loved this hotel. It is like an old fashioned motel where you park in front of your room. They had a lovely garden patio in the back. The bed was really comfortable and the front desk people were both kind and helpful. Even though there were always a lot of cars, I rarely saw or heard anyone else. It was a lovely stsy.

Quiet cozy place to stay

We only stayed for 1 night, but it was quiet and cozy. The little courtyard was nice. Staff was very friendly and courteous. Our room was clean and we had no complaints of anything. We definitely will stay again in the future.

It was just right for my needs. Clean and comfortable. I appreciated having real coffee cups and water glasses in the room and real bowls and plates and flatware in the breakfast room. I'll be back!

Clean and well maintained

When I pulled into the parking lot, I was prepared to be disappointed; this is an older-style hotel and the parking lot is overgrown. BUT, the staff member who checked me in was friendly and helpful. Everything inside was super clean and well maintained. Handicapped accessible room had parking in front of the room and a great bathroom. Very quiet area, well off the interstate. Would highly recommend.

Would Definitely Stay Again

Had a lovely stay. It is a motel so hearing people coming and going from there vehicles was definitely noticeable. The Inn has a 'quiet hour' curfew, but it wasn't enforced, but their designated smoking area rule was. Other than somewhat noisy neighbors, it was a nice stay. It's very close to Cascades Park which was very nice. It also isn't too far from the great events, places, and activities Bloomington has to offer.
Lorien, 2-night trip
