It's a modest motel - not luxurious and does not pretend to be. There are not a lot of amenities, but I paid $55 per night (including the tax) for a comfortable room. The building is slightly worn and faded, but the place is clean. Cable worked just fine. The rooms are quiet with some traffic noise but that's unavoidable... More

There were cigarette smell all along the hallway. Bed is not very comfortable. Old rooms, renovated. no room service. Breakfast was okay. I would go to a better place for few extra bucks.

I stopped by this hotel during a recent trip to U of I and asked to see one of the rooms. I was quickly given a key to one of the rooms. I was already booked at a hotel for that week, but was returning the next week and decided to stay there. I was surprised by the poor reviews,... More

It's only a mile from campus and I'll go back to this hotel again when visiting my kid at school. It's not a huge room but comes with a small fridge and micro. For $50 it's a really good deal. Has a gas station right across the street if you need any coffee, food, or pop etc for the room.

My friends and I stayed here during my cousin's graduation weekend. This place is a great value when visiting family and friends at U of I. We enjoyed our stay and wouldn't mind staying here again.

I was visiting Urbana for a seminar in University original for a short trip but discussion with group led to me further chat on next day, so I had to stay. I selected them randomly, checked in. I found this motel neat and clean. Owner/Manager was co-operative. I was happy with room and the service. I may consider it for... More

I received an email (on the day of my supposed "stay") from Expedia saying I had booked this hotel--which I had DEFINITELY not. It did not show up on my Expedia page. It looks like my account had been hacked. I called Expedia, and they said to call the hotel. The hotel owner, barely understandable, just kept saying "call expedia,... More

Lobby smelled of curry. Hall carpets torn and stained. Room carpet was stained. Mattress was dirty. if this joint was remodeled in 2009, I would like to know what was done! Did not spend the night as this place was terrible.

Ok, so here's the deal on this place. I'll start by saying that if you normally stay in 5 star hotels or are pulling up in your new rolls royce, then you probably shouldn't be booking a room at this place anyway...you can afford better. However, if you're looking for a cheap place to stay for a night or 2... More

I live in Indiana but am close enough to Illinois that my job is there. I had to be in very early so I got a room at this place. This place has many names and you will get confused when looking them up. I have typed the address and phone number and have gotten Blue Star Inn, Urbana Travelodge,... More
