The neighborhood around the hotel is lovely. The hotel itself is a little awkward. The entry and registration desks are quite a ways from the rooms. There is a bar and restaurant. The bar is lovely. The restaurant space is in a closed off space and not comfortable. The rooms are overpriced and not as nice as other lower end chain hotels. With the exception of the location, there are much better options.

Called down and asked for blankets and pillows for the pull-out couch Aunt, they said they would be up stairs to deliver those and they never came. I let them have Grace and waited for about an hour to 2 hours before I eventually fell asleep without any linens or a pillow and the pool was extremely cold. The service was rude. The elevator was iffy and I would expect a little bit more from that hotel but I just don't have to stay there again

I stayed there for 7 nights with my son before he moved in to his dorm at UIUC. We both liked the hotel a lot. It has a spacious gin with free weights, strength machine and treadmills. The bar lounge and restaurant are very comfortable and have a special ambience. Free parking. Very close to the UI campus. Highly recommended.

The room was very clean when we arrived and it was modern while also cozy. The lobby, bar, and restaurant were also very clean and very unique. A lot of hotels are very similar in styling and layout, but this hotel was very unique and felt very luxurious. Parking was right on site and there were plenty of spaces available. We ate at the restaurant on site and enjoyed our delicious meals and the design of the space.

The hotel was beautiful. Very clean as well. Nice beds and nice linens. The shower had good water pressure and hot water. We did not eat at the restaurant but it looked beautiful. We did not use the pool either but we checked it out and it looked nice. Check in and out was fast and easy. Hotel smelled nice. Wasn’t very noisy. Decent area to walk but I don’t recommend the restaurant we walked to called the courier cafe, it was really not great food.

The room is not soundproof at all, and you can clearly hear the music playing in the next room. There was a car honking in the parking lot at night, and someone was knocking on the door frantically in the middle of the night

Hotel was very nice, cool building that was updated well. Staff was professional. For the price, some type of continental breakfast should have been included. That's pretty much the standard now, even in lower dollar hotels. The coffee in the lobby was good and greatly appreciated, but some type of food should be included. The attached restaurant may be great, if one has the time and desire to spend an additional $30 or $40 per night. I didn't.

Internet went down as we arrived so the staff couldn’t find rooms for anyone arriving after that. All arriving guests were turned away after a long wait and the promise of rooms. There seemed to be no way to find rooms without the internet—no back up plan and no competent IT help. The hotel did not offer to get anyone a room at another hotel like usual hotel policy. (We were on our own to find another hotel room at that late hour after an exhausting several days of travel.) Since we had already paid for the room through Expedia, the front desk told us to tell Expedia to call with them with our confirmation number so we could get refunded. However, after multiple attempts to reach the hotel for the next 24 hours, Expedia gave up. The issue was resolved after I finally reached Hilton customer service. After more calls to the front desk and Expedia, I finally got a refund but it was an incredible hassle. This was one of our worst hotel experiences ever!

The hotel staff were superb! However, the Writers Room (restaurant) staff were horrible. The decor and ambiance of the restaurant were excellent, but they were having a bad night (long waits for service, food was late, cold, sent back, and still not right). Also, Lloyd’s (bar) were training new bartenders every night we were there, and the drinks were occasionally good but mostly horrible. We would definitely go back because we hope their training (bar and restaurant) get better. There are good bars and restaurants in this beautiful, walkable neighborhood. Again, the hotel front desk folks were superb!

Front desk team and check in was a 10/10. The room and pool areas were very nice and clean. Where our stay took a turn for the worst was the restaurant. Went to both dinner and breakfast services and I can at least say there were consistent. Consistently bad, unfortunately. People walked out of both services due to unacceptably long waits. The dining room only had 6-7 tables, why was it taking over an hour for appetizers and the basics to come out? Our server, Rocky, was great and the only decent part of our dinner service. Very apologetic and trying to make the best of a terrible situation. As for breakfast, the host who was grabbing drinks and cleaning tables was amazing, but one server who clearly did not want to be there taking care of the entire dining room was crazy. Avoid the restaurant at all cost if you go, there are plenty of local spots very close by that won’t make you wait an hour for pancakes.
