This hotel was certainly inexpensive, but the inside of the room was shabby. The website said that rooms had been recently renovated, but it was a slap-dash renovation. What really needed renovating was ALL the bed linens. One of the bed covers had many burn holes and stains, and the blanket was very dirty. The shower stall was not clean,... More

Very low cost for a good stay. Surprised by how modern the rooms looked. Would stay here again, esp for the great location and cost.

We stayed here when we spent a weekend at Brown County State Park and Nashville, IN. It is not a 5 star hotel but it provides a good location and safety. The room was clean and spacious.

This is by far the worst hotel/motel i've ever stayed in. Unfortuantely, this was the last place in town that had rooms available for the football weekend, so we weren't left with many options. The lady at the front desk was the best part of the entire experience. She was very friendly and worked with me to find a room... More

Stayed three nights while attending Lotus World Music and Arts Fest the weekend of 9-24-11. After being advised by a festival official to not stay there, I spoke to the Bloomington Director of Tourism, who personally went there, spoke to the manager who showed her a room. She called me the next day and said the room was spartan but... More

Room was clean and staff were friendly. Was offered a sexual favor for a price by a person staying in room near mine. Obviously running prostitution from that location. I will pay extra to get away from that scene next time.

After I had returned from staying at this fleabag flophouse, I received a phone call from one of its employees, asking me if I had left a silver necklace (with a crucifix) in the room. Apparently, one of the staff found it when cleaning up. I realized I had, and asked them to hold it for me until the following... More

This is the dirtiest motel I have ever been in. The carpet looked like something out of CSI. Thanks God we did not have a blue light! Bathroom was filthy, sheets weren't clean, sink was stopped up. And we were itchy the next day!
