Same receptiveness from awesome front staff and housekeeping. Keep up the good work. Same opinion of the breakfast, but they do try with what they have. If only they could figure out how to not burn the bacon which we figure is the "already cooked" kind, which they refry to heat; invariably hard. My suggestion: I find heating in a microwave on DEFROST is often the best solution, even to reheat pizza. No nuking. You shouldn't go hungry from the offered selection but you may have difficulty getting bread or bagel toasted. Guests constantly complain about it and it has never gotten fixed. Yes it's annoying. You're in a hurry, you're hungry, you're making other people wait, etc. I mean, what's the cost of a couple good-working toasters?

The lodge started out as a hunting lodge in the middle of beautiful Pike County Illinois, the whitetail deer Capitol of the world. With deer season so short Andy recognized other uses for the lodge and expanded his focus to satisfy a wider range of clientele. He has absolutely hit a home run.

The front desk staff is always nice and helpful. The rooms are basic but nice and clean. The fitness center is fairly small but seems to always be empty so no issue using equipment. Like many hotels, they seems to have gotten rid of the hot tubs but the pool is heated and was definitely enjoyed but the kids. The breakfast option here sets it apart from other options with a spread of hot items as well as pastries and cereals. They also have both full size and mini waffle irons and a complete topping bar. Anytime we stay in Macomb, this is our preferred hotel location.

The Green Gables has put in some good improvements since I stayed here a couple of years ago. The…read morething you should realize about this motel is that it offers very high value. So remember that it's not the Ritz Carlton you're checking into. With that in mind: The room is good - clean, double bed is comfortable, TV works, two lamps that work and a little refrigerator and also a microwave. So you have what you need for a few nights. Also, outside each room there are little chairs so you can sit outside which in the summer, is a very pleasant thing to do. And it's fun to talk with the other guests; they are always interesting people. The location cannot be beat. It is very near Scripps Park which has a playground, a picnic area and a fabulous aquatic center with a giant slide. It's also across the road from the Fitness Center where you can buy a $10 day pass - lap pool, gyms, workout room - great facility. It's also close to the best Mexican restaurant around - Los Charros. Alway busy because it's so good. The parking lot is well lit, the grass is mowed and manicured. I think it is a very fine place for the money. It's also quite safe. I don't think I needed to lock my door - of course, I did, but it's a quiet place despite the fact that it's right on Rt 24. Lastly, the owner of this motel is a very fine woman. I had a problem - I lost my key - and she couldn't have been more understanding. She is kind. I stayed a few nights and had the chance to visit with her and she's interesting. I recommend this motel as the best value in Rushville.

Here is why: * They new owners (2020) lied to me, confirming I had a room at the Green Gable and then taking it away without notifying me less than an hour before I arrived. A classic bait and switch to gain customers at the Crossroads motel that has such a horrible repetition (Outdates, bedbugs and roaches). * The woman/owner said they were giving me a deal at Crossroads for 79.00 because they messed up, but the husband later said the room was 60.00, not knowing the situation between his wife and me with her offering it for 79.00 at a "bargain price." * They told me the Green Gable was filled (Though they didn't bother to notify me), when it clearly was not. We checked several times throughout the night and the next morning. The same three, and later one more vehicles were there. It was obvious they had vacant rooms. There was no vacancy sign on the office door at any point. All to get you to go to the Crossroads. * They have, and most likely will continue to raise the rates. * If history is proof, they will continue to let the Green Gable go down in quality and cleanliness, and possibly become bug infested like the Crossroads. * They can NOT be trusted. I can't feel safe with people or willing to do business with people that are willing to trick, lie, be deceitful and have no morals. I am in shock of what they did. I use to love going to the Green Gable when the wonderful older couple use to own it.

In October 2020, Jenni and I visited the small town of Jacksonville, IL. We stayed at Blessings on…read moreState Bed & Breakfast, which is your favorite Hallmark Movie home come to life. Gwenn (the elegant and charming innkeeper) has created the most perfect haven for any kind of visit you are looking for. Upon arrival, the grand wrap around porch was the first thing to welcome us to a visit that changed my life. Gwenn greeted us at the front door. Her kind smile and welcoming words made me feel right at home. The grand foyer is perfectly decorated to welcome you into the home and to flow into the front parlor and the dining room. The front parlor is elegant, but comfortable. There is a baby grand piano perfectly placed in front of the bay window. I could just picture friends and family gathered around the piano singing songs and having a great time. The furniture is placed where conversation can easily flow. Jenni was so comfortable that she just curled up as we enjoyed conversation with Gwenn on our first evening. I felt so comfortable sitting and talking with Gwenn, however my mind did wonder while I imagined how this amazing room possibly was going to look like at Christmas (my favorite holiday). The grand staircase leads up to the two suites- Serenity on State and the royal Tranquility. Between the two suites there is a beverage and snack station. I loved being able to come out of my room at night to get a cold drink. On the first evening of our stay there was fresh cookies and milk waiting there for us to enjoy before we went to sleep. I thought that was so fun. Jenni and I stayed in the Tranquility Suite. It was a grand suite that had the bedroom, gorgeous bathroom, and a cute sitting/sleeping room attached. The extra room was the perfect place to put our luggage and equipment. It is also a great place to get dressed, so if someone else is still sleeping in the main bedroom. This room would be perfect for families traveling together. The bathroom in the Tranquility Suite is WOW!! It was like you had your own private spa- with the claw-foot soaking tub and the large shower. I enjoyed the large vanity with the two sinks. Jenni and I each could have our space. Breakfast is not just a meal at Blessings on State, but an experience. The dining room is elegantly decorated. When breakfast is served, it is done with elegance and grace. I felt like royalty has I was served the delicious breakfast. Everything we ate was wonderful, but I really loved Gwenn's special breakfast casserole. It is so good!! My words and my pictures that I am sharing here can not express or really show how perfect every thing is. Everything really is perfect. We have already scheduled our next trip to visit so we can experience it at Christmas. Blessings on State needs to be place that you visit. Gwenn and her staff can create your perfect visit/experience. If you are a Hallmark fan like me, then just go ahead and book your room right now. Gwenn not only makes everything at the B&B perfect, but she can help plan your entire visit in Jacksonville, IL. I can guarantee that your visit will be one you will never forget and one that you will want to repeat many more times.

I happened to get a couple of rooms now, in 2021, while visiting WIU for graduation, and was impressed at the change. I had actually driven up to the hotel, willing to accept it as I remembered it from 4 years ago; it turned out be much, much nicer. No more smoky smell - in fact the entire hotel smells clean and fresh. The carpets have been replaced,and new paint throughout. New furniture, furnishings, appliances and ACs in the rooms. The entire staff is hard-working, friendly and approachable. The manager/host is clearly engaged in the performance of the hotel, and it's easy to see, since he is always present in person, working alongside the staff. (side note - this hotel turned out to be even nicer than the Quality Inn and Suites in Kansas City, MO. That place was the exact opposite, but that's the subject of another review).

Brandy was the star of our last stay! She was so kind and helpful and refreshed our towels and bathroom daily! We booked 4 nights and designated a first floor room as the others were booked. The entrance is in the alley way. The key stuck in the door each time we tried to use and it getting in was difficult. The air conditioning is a window unit. There is also an iodizer that was running that sounded like a vacuum cleaner. Bathrooms are older. We didn't have an actual bathroom vanity/sink and used the kitchenette sink. The walls were pretty thin, and we could hear our neighbors often and chatter from the alley and parking lot. The beds were comfy and the room was clean! The restaurant was honestly strange. It's a steakhouse but has a lot of pub seating and tables cannot be moved. Prices were reasonable but food is served in diner style baskets with paper (not a steakhouse vibe). Severs were kind but unorganized. My salad had a lot of wilted lettuce, but baked potato and steak kabob was good. We wouldn't go back.
