"Very inviting and warm welcome. Sad we didn’t find this hidden gem sooner after our son has attended ISU for the last four years. We were lucky to meet some of the former fraternity brothers that lived there in the 1980s. Highly recommend this property! Awesome breakfast!!! "

"Breakfast was not as good as what we get in other hotels. The hockey puck eggs were not good and we saw something that might have been sausage, but didn’t try it. Could have just been a bad day for someone. The elevator didn’t work (and had a sign), but it would travel to the floor, preventing the working elevator from coming up. That was frustrating. The place wasn’t full, but they put us next to an occupied room. So instead of a really quiet night, we got to enjoy someone else coming...

"The room was exceptionally clean as was the whole hotel. The breakfast bar was also extremely clean and well stocked. The only things that could be better would be a place to put your luggage as there was no luggage rack and in the bathroom there was no hook on the back of the door for a robe or clothing. Another place to hang your hand towel would also be appreciated."

"The property was nice going in. I was originally supposed to have a single queen room and the man at the front desk gave us a two queen for no extra charge. The room was clean other than the floor needing vacuumed and some of the bathroom surfaces being wiped down. Breakfast was nothing special, but nice to have. Not a bad place to stay for the price."
