We stayed overnight after a football game. Not far to travel from campus. A reasonable rate! Staff was friendly and room was clean and comfortable. Breakfast was a notch up from other hotels we've stayed at nearby. We will be back! Thanks!

Decided to book at the Illini Inn, while moving my daughter into her dorms, rather than staying right in Urbana & I'm so glad I did. It was so quiet & peaceful, & the staff was wonderful. The rooms were great. Lots of space & very comfortable beds. Breakfast was also excellent. Definitely planning on staying at the Illini Inn whenever I visit again.

The hotel is nicer than it looks from outside the building. Room is spacious and clean, staff is very helpful, friendly. Hot breakfast is better than many higher star ones. They also offer free bottle water at check-out. Definitely will come back next visiting Champaign-Urbana area.

Room was old but pretty clean. I think mosquitoes were coming in from the window air conditioning unit, I kept finding dead ones on my bed. The room also had some drain bugs or fruit flies. The work out room was awful. Decent variety of breakfast items.
