The pool was not open, even after I called to confirm that it would be open. My son had stayed in the same hotel two months earlier and said that the pool wasn't open then either. Staffing issues?

I paid 149.00 per night for this on hotels.com. The beds were quite small and the kind that has a metal base with a headboard that is attached to the wall, but not the bed. The room WAS very clean, but it was a cheap room for the price. There was no elevator, and I was traveling with another who can't climb stairs. Breakfast was ridiculous - very tiny and burnt up sausages, gelatinous gravy, obviously fake eggs, and a couple of yogurts in the fridge. I don't expect luxury for a continental breakfast but have attended many hotels with better quality. The staff were friendly, and the hotel was clean, but the quality for the price was ridiculous@

This is our go-to place to stay in Muncie. Service is always great, but hotel condition is starting to suffer. Although we didn't use the pool, it was only open for a few days at the start of our stay. It was closed for most of our stay which would have been very frustrating for families with children that were hoping to swim. Fresh towels were placed in our room each day, but the bedding was only replaced once during our two-week stay. The breakfast is good, but a little variety would have been nice. Overall, it's a safe, quiet location and we wouldn't hesitate to stay there again.

The only bad part is we had a Jacuzzi room with a balcony but the balcony was located above the inside pool area. It was noisy when people were in the pool at 8am in the damn morning.

Biggest complaint is the fact that this is the first time i have ever had to stay at a hotel with a broken tv. None of the channels worked, just said no service. Called front desk and someone came up and looked at it to just to say they didnt know what was wrong. Did not offer to move our room or any compensation for the inconvenience. On top of that, the overall hotel was not very clean or well kept. The beds were small and very uncomfortable. I would never recommend this hotel to anybody.

We arrived after a volleyball tournament around 10pm to check in and shower and go to bed. After check in we were going upstairs, the outside door in the back was propped open and people were coming and going from there to a party. We got up stairs were multiple rooms had large amount of guests staying and smoking weed. The smell was coming into our room. We decided to pack up and ask for a refund. The front desk manager was very nice and said we was going to deal with the party but after our worries he offered a full refund. Thankful for the front desk manager for understanding we had 13yr old girls that didn’t need to be trying to fall asleep to loud and smelly party before having to get up and play the next morning.

The only problem I had was that I wanted to change my date and the manager on duty said he couldn't authorize the change without even looking to see and let us know that the hotel was already booked for the change I wanted to make. This just caused a pain in the ass that didn't need to happen if he would've checked to see that the hotel was already booked for the changed date that I wanted to make. Instead he caused a lot of time and energy by Expedia and myself with phones calls back and forth but if he would've just looked and told me the hotel was already booked none of that time would have had to been taken to try to get a change approved when it couldn't be changed in the first place because the hotel was booked. UGH! AAR!

Property was good, but breakfast was inconsistent. During 8 day stay, eggs and sausage were plentiful and fresh each morning at the start of our stay. However, with each passing day, the quantity diminished and it was obvious that what was available was reheated from the previous day. By day 8, the only eggs that were available were the four dried out patties from the day before. Lots of room for improvement there. Room was clean and refreshed each day. Refrigerator wasn’t working upon arrival, but was replaced promptly. Glass shelf in the bathroom (room 114) needs to be tightened. The shelf is sagging to the point where items slide off into the sink. The shower water valve also needs to be resealed. The shower drips constantly.
