Our stay was a quick two night stay for my son’s music audition at Jacob’s. Check in and out was smooth, staff pleasant and breakfast/24hr coffee was nice. Plenty of restaurants nearby and a good location between Jacob’s and other parts of town you’ll want to see. We will be back if this (Bloomington, Indiana) is where the universe puts our son.
