Room 302 was terrible. It stunk so badly that even after the windows were opened and a fan was circulating that room for 8 hours it still smelled so bad. The sheets smelled bad, pillows, and towels too. I assume it's probably in the carpet too. One of the bath towels was also dirty, and so was a wash cloth. Friendly and patient staff. All the other rooms were great! We will be back! Breakfast was great! I bought 5 rooms and 4/5 were great! Thank you for hosting us!

Staff was nice. Room was clean but very well used. Sofa couch looks like it had been there since 1970s. whole establishment needs to be redone. Very old and creepy vibes. Hallway odorous. Next to a noisy freeway. Would definitely not stay again.

Very friendly, basic, clean

When we vacated our other Bloomington hotel due to unacceptable condition, we had limited options. This hotel was very welcoming: a truly lovely staff. The 3-star score is only that low because we had one of the unrenovated rooms and it was quite dated and the sofa(bed) upholstery and seat cushions were in bad shape. Pros( in addition to the staff): clean facility and room with comfortable bathroom and kitchen, good TV. Surprisingly quiet and convenient location. Perfectly nice comp hot breakfast. Really nice, clean little pool helped us decompress. I would gladly return but request a renovated room.

The staff was very efficient and friendly. This property needs some TLC. Surprised that Marriott would let one of their properties get this run down. Our bed was uncomfortable, sagged in the middle. Air conditioner quite loud. Printer downstairs broken so unable to print boarding passes.

Although the employers were very nice the hotel is extremely dated. I recognize it was graduation weekend but we paid well over $800 for what should have cost less than $100.

moldy shower curtain, the rooms smelled moldy and the caulking was all old and cracked. They price gauged because of the university. Graduation was $700 another time over $300 and the toilets didn't work.

I don't think I could have gotten more for my money. This is an older property so it's a little frayed in places, but the hardworking (yes, I watched them) staff keep it clean and tidy as possible. I found all of the staff members to be helpful and courteous.I was left with a warm feeling when I checked out.
