Not so good

There was no phone number to hotel. Every number listed either just rang or was not a working number. They did not respond to me messaging them either I was trying to contact them to request early check in. So we just had to arrive in person and ask and was told no despite me being an IHG member. Then I wanted to pay the $50 deposit separately on a different card or even offered cash and they said no. The women working breakfast were extremely good. Comforters smelled. Good location for IU visit

Our second time here. The location is good. House keeping & some front desk staff are courteous and do prompt service. Bed & linens are fine. Good parking space. But the floors, furniture, carpet need cleaning & replaced. There were dead bugs in bathroom. Stains on carpets & old furnishings. Overall comfortable stay.

Spacious room wish for functional amenities

Staff was friendly. Room was not ready until after 5p. Mgr offered a drink and snack on the house. Bathroom smelled like a dirty cloth. Bathtub clogged and did not drain well. Cold water faucet worked but not well/ broken. Bar not open and restaurant only open for breakfast. Room was spacious and hotel conveniently located.

We informed the manager, feeling uncomfortable and threatened by groups of people wandering around the property, pungent smell of marijuana smoke in the lobby, and in the hallways, my husband was intimidated when he went out to get a cigarette after we finally got into our room, parking lot filled. We had to wait for a half an hour for a spot the front desk attendant helped us and apologized. Blood stains on the floor in our room, the TV only giving us two channels.

Wasn’t my favorite stay in Bloomington.

This stay was a little rough, but hoping some honest feedback helps. 3-night stay during move-in week. Room was expensive. Not one staff member smiled from check in to check out. Not one but two separate staff ladies chased me out of the breakfast room because I wouldn’t share my room number. Piles of dirty linens in hall on top of filthy carpet. Hair all over bathroom floor, and a/c didn’t work. Bed was pretty comfy to be fair. Hate to write this but trying to be honest.
