Good location, decent stay

Came up to visit EIU with a friend so this hotel was very close which was nice! Very convenient location. The beds are not the most comfortable but they worked for our short trip. There were mold looking spots on the ceiling in the shower so that gave us the eebie geebies but other than that, it was a good stay for what we needed! I’ve stayed here previously and will stay again mostly due to its location.

Do they have hot water?

The Temperature on the water didn’t get very hot right away. It was like as the water ran longer that’s when it got hotter which was kind of odd. It could’ve been too that the room wasn’t occupied a lot so the water wasn’t being used a lot.
