I stayed here when we were visiting family in the area. I heard some rather disparaging racial remarks from staff while I was there and while I am not of any racial minority, I was put in the awkward position of being asked if I agreed with racism running rampant around me. I did not agree but as the staff... More

I've stayed in this hotel several times- at least 10. It's in a convenient location. But every time I stay, it gets worse! This time, when I checked in, I was handed a key and the lady just walked off. She didn't tell me about breakfast or checkout. But the biggest issue is that it can be scary. The hotel... More

Use to love going to this little cubby hole. Right next door to "Cracker Barrel" so breackfast, lunch, or dinner was a breeze! At $50 a night for a quite alone time was perfect, but now it went up to $64 a night, I may have to find another spot. Everything else is okay though, could be a little cleaner.

Considering we were in Terre Haute shopping for a college, we wanted something low cost. We stayed for one night and were satisfied with the service, room (with a refrigerator and microwave) and breakfast. If I wanted more, I would gone to a higher priced location and would have paid for more amenities. Luckily I did have my own hair... More
