The room was wonderful. We hadn't ever stayed on the garden side before, and it is lovely. The only reason I didn't give you a 5-star rating was the breakfast. It used to be so nice and I was surprised that it didn't have anywhere near the same variety or quality of food. The staff was very friendly as usual. We'll stay here again but won't plan on breakfast here next time!

We actually had a great experience at the Cascades Inn! We had never stayed here before & although it’s a more of a motel, it acted more like a 3-4 star hotel! Nicole at the front desk was extremely friendly over the phone prior to our stay & even better in person! Gavin at the Sleepers bar is an amazing mixologist & has a wonderful personality. Room was very clean ‘ the king size bed was comfortable! I will say that we would probably come back here and I would try to book Suite around back with the Cascades Park view. Uber comes to pick you up at the front door, and it’s so close to all activities at Indiana University literally 5 minutes away.

Minor thing: they need to adjust or replace the door closer on 111. It doesnt latch on casual closing. I think it's catching on the carpet. You have to yank it hard.
