My wife and I had a wonderful time staying at this property while picking up our son from SIU. If I am being honest, I was a bit skeptical about staying in a 100+ year old school classroom. Not anymore. Rooms were huge, beds are super comfortable, great shower pressure, etc. All the things that you would expect from a high end hotel. Lyle and Tammy were great hosts and the breakfast was fantastic! (Baked french toast with apples, eggs with cheese, fresh fruit, and OJ). We will definitely be back again. :)
