We just stayed here over the weekend for Mother's Weekend 2013 @ U of I. We waited too long to book a reservation closer to campus and this Hotel had an opening, worth the price we paid, nothing fancy but not a dump like the Days Inn across the street appeared to be. The room was dated and the bathroom... More

The room was clean with nice comfortable queen beds. The hotel is a bit dated but well maintained. I did not stay around for breakfast but it is included with a nites stay. This hotel is an excellent alternative when hotels in Champaign/Urbana are filled. It is conveniently located next to I57 with a walmart a few hundred yards away.... More

We stayed at this hotel and were very pleased. It was quiet and friendly. We didn't want anything special. We wanted a comfy bed and something to eat before heading out in the morning. We got both and a complimentary newspaper to go with it. I would call the hotel directly to make my reservation (217) 892-9292 There was a... More

When a guest arrives at Magnusons, they may have the thought of staying at a mansion. That's what the outside looks like. A spacious lobby. Check in was quick & smooth. One look at the room, I knew this would be two days of enjoyment. King bed, very comfortable, four pillows.The room's finishings include: four drawer chest,, two bed end... More

Service was not especially friendly. Ice machine was broken. Clothes dryer was also broken, and we intended to do laundry. Rooms were ok. Dated, but adequate. Beds were fine. Breakfast was quite minimal.

This is a motel for truckers to stop to grab a nap and a shower...the outdoor pool is ok, but not worth the damp, outdated, musty room. Website says "newly remodeled"......lol, maybe updated from 1950 to 1985??? But it still has filthy bathroom tile, the caulk in the shower crumbles and clogs the drain, the dingy, polyester bedding and old... More

Good point- it was clean,look remodeled, and rooms have fridge and microwave. No mold in baths. No tore up furniture. Stayed here in 2011 and it is much better than then. Wireless worked ok,just a little flakey but worked. A/ C worked well even though it was 98. Not so good- Breakfast is underwhelming but cereal,bagels,juice and coffee can get... More

We stopped here after a long drive. It was an ok stay but nothing great. The positives were that the pool was nice. It was refreshing on a hot day. The room was clean and had a microwave and mini fridge. The negatives. The bed mattress appeared to be older and the springs squeaked. In the morning my side hurt... More

I had stayed at this hotel 2 years ago, and found it to be clean and comfortable. But my recent stay was less than pleasant. The front desk person who greeted us was very nice, however, things went down hill fast. When we first entered the room, one of the pillow cases was dirty. When we took it off to... More
