Pleasantly clean and quiet

A lovely room: clean, quiet, and spacious. Amenities are basic, but everything I needed for a comfortable stay was provided. It seems the simplicity allows them to focus on what really matters. The room was exceptionally clean, and the bed and pillows were very comfortable. The front desk staff was friendly and helpful. We didn’t try the breakfast. It appeared to be limited to bagels and cold cereal, with no eggs or hot options, but that was fine by us. When traveling, I generally prefer to grab something after being on the road for a bit anyway. I would recommend Spark if you’re staying in Merrillville.

The front desk clerk was friendly and helpful. The room was clean and comfortable. Breakfast was a little bit skimpy, but otherwise I would definately recommend this hotel!

Looks Modern, But Isn't Truely

You can definitely tell this is an older hotel that they did a quick remodel to modernize the looks, but not all of the functions of the room. There was an electrical outlet on only one side of the bed, so you couldn't charge a phone on both sides. Our toilet was the loudest thing in the world and literally shook the floor when it flushed. Shower had the same old standard terrible shower head that every hotel does. The TV and thermostat in the room had been nicely updated. Staff was super nice too. The room was just disappointing if you're looking for a more modern looking and fuctioning hotel.
