This hotel saved our vacation. We were staying in Champaign during the 4th of July week with family, and when quarters got too cramped and overwhelming staying with them (baby had an ear infection), we checked into this hotel. What a breath of fresh air! It was absolutely beautiful inside, with a full kitchenette, dishwasher, stovetop, microwave, and fridge. Seperate bedroom from the living area which we needed for baby to go to bed early. When we checked in, the wonderful front desk employee, Drae, not only greeted us with a smile but went out of his way to make sure we had everything we needed. I was exhausted after 2 days with a sick baby, and he gave her duckies for the bathtub, offered baby books to read to her, and then when I came back down later to grab a drink and something to eat from the store, he even offered to run over to Walgreens for me and pick up a 6 pack because I said I needed a drink after all that! (I didn't take him up on it, but it was so nice of him to offer) He even offered advice on how to help soothe baby with her first ear infection, having kids of his own. We ended up staying for 3 nights, and the last night was the 4th of July. We were too tired to go over to watch the fireworks, but imagine our delight when the ENTIRE fireworks display was in perfect view from our sitting room window. My husband and I cracked a couple of beers and enjoyed the show, while baby snoozed away in the crib in the bedroom. The parking lot below was packed with people coming to watch the show from there - so the locals must know its an ideal spot!\n\nThe pool was small but served our purpose - to take baby in for a quick dip. It was nice warm water, too. \n\nWe could not have been happier with this hotel. We will definitely stay here next time we're in town! It is pricier but worth every penny.\n\nThe only weird thing - we found a pair of female underwear in the back of our toilet tank. Must have been from a previous guest, and we didn't notice until day 2 when the toilet wouldn't flush. It was kind of hilarious, we were all taking guesses on how the heck they got there, but still, being someone else's underwear it was a little gross. Ha!
