Great stay! Great food! Great hospitality! Nice and friendly owners! Beautiful house! Very clean! Great price for the fantastic service! What else can a guest expect from a B&B? Everything can be found at Akademika! more

We loved this B&B . We loved the location and the lovely morning breakfast. We loved the fact that Akademika is a house built in 1924, nicely upgraded by Gloria and her husband to give it a lot of character. We attended a seminar that was held in the Illini Union. From Akademika everything was in walking distance and the... more

Recently stayed at Akademika for four nights on a business trip to Urbana/Champaign. The B&B was excellent, Gloria was very courteous and professional, and the location was perfect to all I need do. As a woman traveling alone, I felt very safe and comfortable. Would return again (and hope soon) and stay here. I recommend it.. This B&B is very... more

Stayed there twice because of the location and ONLY because of the location. We were treated like we were going to steal something. A member of the family was always present in the living room.

very nice rooms, extremely close to campus, great service, the best breakfast I am surprised that there was a bad review of this place. There is nothing not to like! does not deserve less than 5 stars more

I have just spent three great nights at the Akademika. I would agree with all of the positive comments made by other reviewers. It is a beautiful, well maintained and extremely welcoming place. The family who run it could not be nicer. They are attentive and generous without being intrusive. As with all good B&B's it is the simple things... more

My husband and I stayed here in late February, as I had an interview at the University the next day. We stayed in the Rainbow Suite on the third floor. Gloria keeps a PRISTINE house. Everything was wonderfully maintained and well furnished...there was even a laptop for us to use in the room! She's a great cook and extremely friendly,... more

I had a great time at this B&B. Friendly owners, nice place, very neat, excellent breakfast. Also, do not try to ask for a discount, the owner is not to interested in renting her rooms unless you are able to afford them. more
