"As ISU alumni, it is hard to find place for stay and close to campus, when most of friends graduated from school many years. I was living here for 2 nights. The house is lovely. Breakfast was nice. It is also convenient to visit campus."

"Best night of sleep ever, reminded me of my childhood home. Not super busy on this random Sunday night. Cornerstone Church service was the highlight of our trip."

"Our stay last night was absolutely wonderful! The hotel was beautiful and incredibly comfy, making for a perfect night's rest. We especially loved the family-style breakfast – it was such a unique and delightful way to start the day, with everyone sitting down and enjoying food together. Highly recommend!"
