6/10 Okay

Food options are very limited, I think this can improve. Personnel is very polite, I like this so much.
Angel, 4-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Dirty rooms, horrible breakfast service, poor management/supervision, just awful
Tiamara, 4-night trip

10/10 Excellent

What stands out most about this comfortable place to rest is the attention of the staff. The lady who works there offers the best service and is very receptive and attentive, and this is one of the things that is sometimes more important than everything else.
Ronny, 4-night trip

10/10 Excellent

I had a fantastic stay at the University Inn of Carbondale! From the moment I arrived, the staff made me feel welcome and went above and beyond to ensure a comfortable experience. The room was spotless, beautifully designed, and had everything I needed. The location was perfect, and the breakfast buffet? Delicious.
Jeff, 4-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Well, should have read other reviews before going to this place that felt like I was in “The Shining”. Sadly, our place was non-refundable and we decided to stick it out. Ran out as we could after our night. The club nearby makes the parking lot into a block party and there are definitely squatters at the abandoned building behind this place.
Elizabeth, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Very dirty but not bad for the price
Jay, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

No real front desk attendant (virtual kiosk). You can’t hear what’s being said lobby echoes. Dirty rooms black mold on bathroom curtains, stains on walls, dirty beds with stains not changed entire stay, took 3 hours to get clean towels, lobby smells like pet urine/feces. Continental breakfast was old bread & a gallon of milk & sunny D to be shared by guests (unsanitary). No workers on duty 24/7 if u need something..DONT. People actually live in the hotel.. the building next door is abandoned & the other building is a party area for locals. Terrible dirty hotel! Will neveeeeer book again.

Great value for the $$

The rooms are old and outdated, needs to be renovated, Overall I would give it a 6/10, however you get what you pay for. The front desk attendant Jack was very nice and knowledgeable, the maintenance guy was very nice
LaShawn, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

The neighborhood is very sketchy. The only staff was a guy on a kiosk. He wanted me to pay although I had already payed through Expedia. I slept in my car that night and found another place the following night. Expedia refunded the money to me, so no complaints there.
Nathan, 2-night trip

4/10 Poor

Floors were filthy and mold in the shower. Just needed a place to sleep so it was fine. Also there was never anyone at the front desk.
Jessica, 2-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Dirty and disgusting, room was extremely hot and AC was broken, people fighting in the parking lot, super high pet fees will surprise you at check in. Enjoy your stay at trash hole city motel!!
Robert, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Hard to Beat the Price

The price here remains a great value. The rest still needs work, but i do think they are trying. The individuals operating the check-in kiosk, for example, seemed more friendly than last time. The area behind the hotel (my room faced that direction), however, needs a major clean-up. I will continue to patronize the place given the value/effort
Jeff, 1-night trip

4/10 Poor

Hreat bed but sheet was dirty. Toilet was broke and shut off. TV remote didnt work. Haeat AC unit broke up and dirty

You Get What You Pay For

The price here was hard to beat. For that you get a functional room and not a lot more. One great thing was that it was not crowded. The check-in kiosk feels rather impersonal. Breakfast is minimal. I'd stay here again if travelling alone - and the price remains the same.

Good value and courteous staff. They are getting the place cleaned up.
Matthew, 5-night trip

6/10 Okay

The good: One of the cheaper hotels in Carbondale; convenient to both SIU and Shawnee National Forest; kiosk staff were friendly and helped where they could; breakfast was 6:30-9:30, a decent window so most people should be able to grab something. The bad: They use remote kiosks at the front desk instead of in person. Since they're remote, if there's a problem with your room, the most they can do is pass the issue to management. Rarely saw anybody behind the front desk in person while I was there. My bathroom lightbulb needed changing and I had to ask twice to get it changed. On the second to last day of my stay, my toilet developed an issue where it wouldn't flush and would leak water on the floor. Told the front desk about it but the issue wasn't corrected before I left, had to use lobby bathroom instead. The soaps they give you are tiny and fragile. The soap in the lobby bathroom is basically a pump bottle of water. While I never had the breakfast, from what I could see it was pretty much toast, bagels, cereal, milk, and sunny D for orange juice. No sausage or eggs or anything like that. I could hear thumping music in the lobby, likely from the bar next door. Lobby chairs are a bit run down.

I love the location it is convenient safe and quiet and the staffs are friendly.

6/10 Okay

The heater had no settings plate so i could not set the temperature but even with this i was still satisfied. I just wanted a place to sleep with the best rate and this was it by a long shot.

This place needs a lot of attention and updated
