We stayed here two weekends in a row for events in South Bend and it was the best experience. We were greeted by friendly staff, the coziest room, and woke up to the best breakfast. We will definitely be back!

Poor Service

Hotel placed my family and I in a different room than we had booked. The room did not have enough beds and the hotel was booked. Had to leave and go to another hotel. I asked for a refund. Refund hasn’t even come, and the hotel has tried to double charge.

It was ok but not great. When we first arrived, I wanted to empty the trash out of our car from our drive, but the trash can by the entrance was overflowing. Our room was mostly clean, but one drawer had some trash in it from a previous guest. There was no bedding in the room for the pullout couch, but we were able to get some from the front desk. At breakfast, the staff was having a very hard time keeping everything stocked. After I helped my kids get their food, I went back to make a plate and they were out of eggs, turkey sausage, pork sausage, oatmeal, yogurt, hard boiled eggs, and cinnamon rolls. Later when my daughter went back to make a second pancake, they were out of batter. Even the water dispenser said it needed to be refilled. In the pool area, the towel shelves were empty. The staff was friendly and overall things seemed clean, but it wasn’t the greatest stay.

We enjoyed our stay. Everything we needed was available. The only small issues we experienced was the elevator was stuck once and we took the stairs after that. The satellite dish had issues in detecting the satellite and sometimes interfered with our tv Other than that everything was great

The door to our room had a gap, looked like someone had used a crowbar to open it. Room was clean, updated, and bed was comfy. But you could hear people walking on the floor above. Breakfast was average.

Isaak was wonderful with customer service The breakfast attendant was rude the several times I interacted with her over our 5 day stay. Many of the breakfast items were out, and when I would ask if something could be refilled the attendant was rude The room was nice, but the bathroom had a stain on the wall and the floor was not clean
