We just love all of the Country Inn and Suites we have been to!

	Date of Stay: January, 2009
We stayed here for our 29th anniversary. It is the best hotel we have stayed at for a long time. The staff was very nice. The rooms are so big and comfortable. We would for sure stay here again.

	Date of Stay: December, 2007
Stayed here while in town for a family reunion. I thought it would be noisy, due to closeness to highway. Not a problem. Great breakfast offered every a.m. Nice touch they have several choices for hot tea as well as coffee. Staff very friendly & pleasant. Beds very comfortable (Tempurpedic mattressess) pillows suck though. Would recommend this chain.

Date of Stay: March, 2009

This hotel has the best whirlpool rooms in the area. There are, due to pool area, children everywhere. I enjoy this hotel because it is near, new and it offers a suite room with a whirlpool area that can actually fit two comfortably. The king sized beds and linens are adequate and the staff is accommodating. The pool area does have a tendency to draw lots of children on weekends and the sound proofing is not exactly perfect. Thus, I have had to request being moved so as to avoid conflict of interest between the children and the adults. This was not a problem, thankfully. The free breakfast is not exactly inspired, but it is edible.

	Date of Stay: August, 2008
This Country Inn Suites is very new and is a wonderful place to stay in this part of Indiana. Very clean, large rooms with queen beds and the hot morning breakfast is super. I would definitely stay here again.

Hotel BRAND new! Rooms hallways very well kept. Very quiet!! Was placed almost directily across from breakfast room and could not hear any noise in early morning. Wonderful breakfast with very large selection, even hot biscuits,gravy,sassage, and hot waffles. Pool area wonderful, Kiddy pool to die for- just real cute. Will certainly stay here again, also new large Bass Pro Shop within walking distance!!! Great Staff as well, very friendly and helpful.

The staff was helpful & friendly. The pool was great too! The parking around the side of the hotel was dark. I was so impressed with the room & pool at this hotel. It was clean, new & comfortable. This was a great hotel & worth the money.

	Date of Stay: October, 2006
We absolutely LOVED our stay at this hotel! It is brand new and all the rooms have queen sized temperpedic mattresses that are to DIE for! We enjoyed a quiet night and a great continental breakfast the next morning. Everything was as clean and of the highest quality you could ask for! We can't say enough about the friendly staff and the beautiful rooms...WELL DONE!

	Date of Stay: September, 2008
The pillows were small and the chlorine was strong in the pool area even for non-swimmers.

	Date of Stay: August, 2006
hotel was clean,quiet and easily accesible. However, it advertised a pool and whirlpool, which was not completed, and which was part of the reason we chose this hotel. Also, we has to wait about 20 minutes to check-in, and were first sent to a dirty room. The emplyees were apologetic, but seemed confused by the computers.

	Date of Stay: August, 2008
Having a spa tub, a great breakfast and the size of the rooms. Nothing it was really good. Convenient to the expressway, but quiet. The larger rooms are really great, especially the ones with spa tubs.

Date of Stay: August, 2008

Very nice and affordable. It was brand new. Pool area was excellent. Cannot think of anything. The hotel was very affordable. We had a suite with two twin beds and a king bed which worked very well for our family. Hotel was new so had Tempurpedic mattresses. The pool area and hot tub were very nice and relaxing. The continental breakfast was very good. The menu changes daily with a hot breakfast served. Staff was very friendly and accommodating.
