We had never stayed here before but found it clean and convenient. The price was very very reasonable. The young lady who checked us in was cheerful, friendly, and most helpful. On our next trip to Plainfield we will definitely stay here.

Staff was friendly and everything looked clean and comfortable. Bathroom shower is a little dated and had some water damage on the ceiling. The room smelled musty but not a major issue for us. Would stay there again.

There was mold in my room. Wallpaper was stapled in one area and looked to be falling off in about 4 other places. Everything looked old, rusted, or water damaged in my room.

Good stay

Met 3 other couples for IL vs IU game and though this hotel was 45min from stadium it was very nice. Easy check in, clean room, decent continental breakfast and for once in a long time, we actually had a good night sleep in a hotel, bed was comfy

It's well-sited for transport (highways, airport, downtown), the staff is great, and the beds were pretty comfortable. There was a humidity issue- a dehumidifier in the hall outside the room looked like it had been there for a long time and was constantly full. Similarly, the sauna wasn't working and the paper "Out of Order" sign looked pretty old. Bathroom wasn't great- low water pressure. Also, the light switch was a motion sensor. Fine, except I decided to take a bath and the lights went out. Had to get out to trigger it. Still- overall a good hotel.
