Very poor. For the $130 a night I was charged this ā€œhotelā€ had nothing to justify the price. It was clean and the front desk clerk was friendly.

There was no staff on sight. Just a sign with a phone number to call. Felt unsafe at night with no one on duty in case of an emergency. There was an iron, but no ironing board. No microwave. Very inconvenient.

Hotel is clean but very, very old. Bathroom looks dilapidated and about to fall off. It was clean but did not look like it because of how old it was. Gary, the front desk person, was very helpful though and accomodating. This was a last minute booking for us so if we were able to do some research we probably will not have stayed here.

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
We went to attend a Purdue football game and all the hotels were far more expensive than they deserved to charge. Holiday Inns for $300? All to watch Purdue get creamed (as seems to be the going trend these days.) This hotel was $159 with taxes and fees and I seriously felt as if we were checking into what once was a storage facility. Dumpy and on a normal day if I was forced to stay here I would run or pay no more than $75 per night (and that's being generous) There are no safety latches on the door and while the interior was surprisingly clean (which was no indication from the NO-Tell- HOTEL vibes the exterior set off) I slept surprisingly well. The beds were double yet not altogether uncomfortable. I'd only choose to stay here if it was a last resort or knowing what I know now about it the rates were much less than what they were asking.

Excellent value for money. It's an older building, but that's what makes it possible to keep the price down. Negative reviewers had unrealistic expectations.
