I stayed in one of the suites for two nights. The hotel seems to be newly renovated, so my stay was perfect. There wasn't any audible noise I could hear from any guests and the room felt clean and new. I will definitely stay there again if rooms are available. The front desk team was very helpful as well, I had difficulty booking two nights from the site, so once I got there, the gentleman at the front desk was able to update my reservation for me so I didn't have to change rooms or check out and check back in the following day. My son goes to school in Bloomington, and this was the best stay I have had so far. Thank you!
