Good hotel, close to a lot of services in Bloomington. The staff were friendly, rooms were clean and modern. The breakfast was on the low end of ok. There were a few strange things. My room had a mirror mounted behind the TV and it felt like the furniture wasn't properly sized for the room. The hotel it's self seems like two buildings connected together. Overall, it was a good stay and i'd consider staying here again.
