Illini Inn & Suites Hotel - Rantoul/Gifford/Champaign/Urbana
10/10 Excellent
"As someone familiar with military dorms, these definitely have a "used to be a dorm" vibe. Driving around the property you can see buildings next door that are still abandoned that make me hope the hotel will take over at some point. What I admire about this hotel is the EFFORT to keep things as clean and organized as possible despite some aging and perhaps limited capabilities. Example, the fruit they offered was fresh. The bananas weren't bruised, the clementines were ripe. They even offered oatmilk! The bread and bagels weren't stale but soft. The parking lot could use a repaving,but the parking lines are visible and I never felt my car was in danger. The rooms were clean but aged. But the only bugs I seen were the giant mosquitoes outside the window (easily fixed just keep the window closed because they don't have screens). Im hoping this hotel will keep the quality that they offer along with the great customer service and being bug free. And eventually maybe expand a little and renovate some of the areas outside. Some tips and details: the hotel has free parking, breakfast and wifi. There are no elevators. The surrounding areas is most of the former air force base then some apartments. The room has a desk and a small kitchenette (no hot plate). The closest restaurants are mostly fast food about 15 min away. I would take advantage of the breakfast they offer. I plan on booking again soon. "
"I travel to the area for work once a month and have stayed at several hotels in the area. Most have been quite awful experiences. This place was the exception. Clean and quiet with amenities and a decent breakfast. Only bad thing I can say is the hallways and common areas don't seem to be climate controlled. But the room was nice and comfy. "
"Don’t care much for the pet area. Felt like I was right on the road. But it worked fine. Place shows its age but it was clean and the staff were accommodating and friendly. "
"No hot tub no nothing, because the hotel I wanted you guys said it was full and when I went there they said they did have rooms on the day I tried to get one and they still had rooms on the fou"
