The property itself was clean and had a couple of leaks from rain. It was a basic hotel and good if you just need a place to sleep near the interstate. Staff was friendly. Close to shopping.

Very good area to stay in. Rooms look a little ghetto but the bed is comfortable, no bed bugs, and AC works great. Breakfast sucked with only expired oat milk, watered down apple juice, and bagels for your 1st meal of the day. Staff were amazing tho and super friendly/helpful. Good area for those looking to hike Indiana Dunes National/State Park.

After the way I was treated by the general manager, I won't be back. I was lied to, charged for something that I did not do. Was never given a receipt and I have seen no proof of their accusations. I will also be letting my colleges at Canteen Group and Compass USA not to use their hotel when traveling.

Great team on site!

The front desk team was actually amazing. I gave a slight ding because my shower wasn't working quite right, or the hotel has water suppressors on the shower. But otherwise it was a perfectly pleasant stay.

Very new and clean. Simple bagel breakfast, but I’m ok with that. Unique rockers in common areas. No pool, but a bit cheaper than other hotels.
