Staff was wonderful. The property is pretty beaten though. A bit dumpy. But the beds and pillows were good. It was clean. So a mixed review - some good and some bad points.

If you are in town for baseball at the Rantoul Sports complex, its is about 2 miles away, and way cheaper than other places to stay. And the rooms were actually very clean and beds were comfy!!!

It is a converted militarily barracks and not a fancy hotel. It is very nice inside and I will stay there again. I used the exercise room which also had the laundry machines. That room was plain, but I was working out and didnt need mirrors and fancy equipment. The breakfast had waffles, toast, cereals, scrambled eggs, sausage, fried potatoes, fruit, juice, coffee, etc. It was very good and I could choose what I wanted to eat. The staff were very nice to me.

We stayed here for our daughter’s UIUC graduation. The staff are friendly and they had good breakfast. The facility is a bit dated and it’s understandable because it’s a former military base living quarters converted to a hotel. It was a short drive to the campus.
