Trip to Bloomington

Room was clean and well-stocked. There was an issue with the hot tub but the pool was open, which was kind of a bummer. The jetted tub in my rub had a faulty knob which made the water constantly run cold water. Other than that, it was fine. The staff was courteous and very helpful!

College Visit w My Son

The moment I checked in with my son, I knew it was going to be a great stay. Clean lobby and knowledgable staff that informed me about the hotel. Seamless check in. I enjoyed the workout area. Breakfast in lobby was a plus. All day chilled water was great.
