I would highly recommend this hotel! I think it was probably the cleanest hotel I’ve ever stayed, and the beds were super comfortable in a large room. The location is ideal (we came for the festival). A restaurant is located in the hotel. We would definitely stay here again.

Stopped for an overnight during the covered bridge festival. The area is great, the inn was easy to find and had ample parking (for a Monday), and the in itself was decent. My only issues were that the water pressure in the shower wasn’t great, there was lots of dust in and on the vents, and we had a hard time controlling the temp in the room. When the fan blew for the air it was freezing, and when it was off it was too warm. We didn’t find out until we were leaving that the windows opened, and I’m thinking that would have helped for sure. But it’s a nicely updated old building, and I know that my little issues just come with being in an older building. Otherwise, it was perfect for an overnight trip with a friend.

We were at the hotel for four nights. This was our second stay. I grew up in Greencastle and I try to stay here when I can because the choices in Greencastle hotels is slim at best. Only 3 real hotels in GC and the other two are from the 60's and are actually Motels. DePauw Inn is a 21st century hotel. The ONLY thing that I can't seem to wrap my mind around is why the architect designed it with elevator access to only the 3rd floor. If you are on the 1st or 2 nd floor you have to take the stairs. NOT a full flight but about 8-10 steps. First floor is half in the ground, think split level ranch layout. The only ice machine is on the 3rd floor. The restaurant is a nice place to grab a bite and are reasonably priced. I will be back if they aren't booked up on one of my spontaneous trips! Otherwise I usually stay in Cloverdale but I hate that drive. Last but not least I want to say a special thank you to the DAYtime front desk staff. Unfortunately this trip was for a family illness and she was so kind and very helpful. I recommend this place!!!

My husband booked the room for work, and my two kids and I went along. When we arrived at the room, it was clean, but only two towels were provided. We got two additional towels at the front desk. The next morning, we realized there was only one regular coffee pod (and one decaf, and one hot tea), but there was coffee available in the lobby. We made an effort to be out of the room each day so that it could be cleaned, but for some reason, we were missed. On the third day, I asked at the front desk if we could get the basics - trash taken out, more coffee, shampoo, and toilet paper (we had only been left with a partial roll and no spare), but was told they were gone for the day. The front desk attendant got us more toilet paper and told us we could take the trash to the dumpster, which was frustrating, and then I had to go back to ask for new trash bags... Other front desk attendants were more helpful, giving us great recommendations for the area! The hotel grounds are nice with a couple of areas available to get out of the room and lounge, read, or work. It's very close to the square, which has some cute shops and good places to eat!

Nice hotel, but if there were other options in Greencastle would probably stay elsewhere. Bathroom is placed awkwardly in the room with a sliding barn door which gives little privacy. Toilets are low flow and do not fully flush so any water savings are lost with repeated flushing.

The night we checked in the 2 hirls at the front desk were very kind. We could not get out tv to work and had 2 small boys, which was no ideal, but we managed. The next morning however, the lady at the front desk shushed us and was very rude. I understand being quiet for other guests, but there was noone in the lobby and I only saw one other person on property. Her name tag stated she was the manager. Also, when i called the front desk to inquire about breakfast she was very short and said there was no breakfast. If you advertise there is a breakfast, then i think you should make your guests aware at arrival with either a simple sign or through a simple communication. This manager has NO customer service skills. She may be a hard worker, but has no capabilities handling customer interactions. The building itself was decorated gorgeously for the holidays. The room was small, but clean and comfortable.
