We were visiting our daughter at IWU and the College Inn is just across the street. It is very covenant as we could walk to any place on campus! The Inn is decorated in a wonderful cottage theme. The rooms are all different with their own bathrooms! We have now stayed here three times and loved it every time. We... More

The pictures don't lie and the house (and it's owner) don't disappoint. We were in town for a college visit. It was perfect! We stayed in Room #1. The bed was wonderful, the room had great ambiance. A very well made air bed was provided for our student. It made the room a little tight but still comfortable, extremely clean... More

I have stayed here 4 times and hope to stay many more. I have been in several rooms and all are clean and comfortable. The room on the first floor opens into the living room / kitchen area. I initially wondered about privacy, but found the room to be a benefit. It gave me the opportunity to meet and talk... More

College Inn has great decor and wonderful food. The service is also outstanding. It is walking distance to IWU and close to many shopping and food locations. It has only 5 room, though, so book in advance if you can. If you are traveling to Marion Indiana, don't even think of staying anywhere else!!!!

College Inn is right across the street from Indiana Wesleyan University, so it's a perfect spot for campus visitors. My room, #4, had a view of the campus. My room was clean and attractively decorated. Towels were plush. The room has a flat screen TV and there is WiFi throughout the house. One of the features of this B &... More

This bed and breakfast is directly accross from the IWU campus. We were impressed with how clean everything was and how warm and welcoming the place felt. The innkeeper and his wife were both very kind and accomodating. We would most definately recommed this place and we are already planning on staying again in August!

This quaint, relaxing bed and breakfast is directly across the street from IWU and is a wonderful place to stay while visiting IWU or even Taylor University. The rooms are comfortable, clean and have a "Pottery Barn" decor flavor. Randy-the inn keeper, is a warm and welcoming man who goes out of his way to insure your comfort and will... More

This bed and breakfast inn is as close to Indiana Wesleyan University as one can get without actually being on campus. While I was there, the inkeeper position was vacant and they were conducting interviews for it. However, the owners, who do not live on the premesis, took good care of me. There are five rooms, two on the first... More
