When my fiance and I decided to visit his grandparents in Berne, we figured we'd stay in the guest…read moreroom of their retirement community. However, it was booked, so we had two options of where to stay: Schug House or a hotel. The hotel is newer and was $70+ and Schug House was historic and cost around $45. We thought it would be charming and a great value, and that's what we got! When I made the reservation, the owner was really friendly and helpful. She even gave us permission to invite the grandparents to breakfast! Without charging us! We didn't know what time of night we'd get in, so she said she'd leave directions on the door. We didn't have to worry about being locked out. We found our room, which was full of antiques. The bed was very comfortable and everything was very clean. Most B&Bs don't have spacious rooms because they are in old homes, and this was no exception. But it was just fine for the two of us. We loved the room. The only thing that we didn't like was the window air conditioning, again a throwback to the historic building. It was a little noisy. But the inn was pretty quiet overall. We didn't hear the neighbors. The breakfast was really good! I wasn't expecting that much because we were told that it was fruit, cheese and 3 types of baked goods. It was very filling though. We started with a fruit cup. The baked goods were croissants, a breakfast bread (not sure of the kind), and coffee cake. Fresh and delicious. There was OJ, juice and tea. Also, cereal. The cheese was also yummy. I had a lot of it! Ha! They eat family style here, so be ready to mingle with other guests. Breakfast is served until 10, which is nice if you want to sleep in. Did I mention the great price of this place? I'm still surprised for what we got!! If you're looking for a charming place with friendly owners & workers and a yummy breakfast, make a reservation! My fiance's family said they are going to stay here now whenever they visit because it's not much more than the guest room at the retirement community and has much more charm plus breakfast. We definitely will stay there next year on our annual visit as well!

Actually I…read morenever expected to stay in a hotel in Portland, Indiana but I am working in Celina, Ohio this week and this is the closest decent hotel that has availability. My room is very nice. It's a King Suite and has plenty of space. There is a sitting area, large desk, super comfortable bed, dinette for two, refrigerator, microwave and bar sink. The bathroom is large and well equipped with amenities. I appreciate that there is good lighting as I will be working here in the evenings. There were fresh cookies and lemonade when I arrived at 11:30 pm, which was definitely unexpected. I stay at many hotels that offer fresh cookies but usually if you aren't there by 5 pm you miss them. It is very quiet here as well. One of the nicer HIEs that I have stayed in. Definitely recommend this place if you are traveling through Portland, Indiana.

I have stayed twice in this hotel. I first stayed here in December of 2019 when I was first…read morevisiting Van Wert. I was being recruited for a position in a company in the area and I was interviewing/checking out the company/checking out the area. I stayed in a room with a king sized bed. I ultimately took the job. I had to immediately book the hotel again. I therefore stayed here again from Jan 10 2020 for over a month while waiting to first get possession of the home I bought and during the time my floors were getting redone. Stayed in a suite, with two queen beds and a living rook that had a fold out sofa bed. Hard living with two other people in such a small enclosed space. The hotel does offer suites with kitchen, alas they are few and hard to come by. I spent the time in one without one and had to eat out all the time. My stats were pleasant, considering all the above. The hotel breakfast room is large and comfortable. The hotel has an indoor heated pool which is a big plus! The staff also is the friendliest hotel staff I have ever dealt with. I would talk to them all the time. We would ask how we were all doing, where we were in our move. These are genuinely warm people and the best part of staying at this hotel. There are some weaknesses. The breakfast is unappetizing, and I usually avoided it.. even though it was included in my stay. It didn't taste bad... just didn't have taste... it was bland. The coffee is weak. The suites can also definitely be a little larger and they need updating. Some of the furniture seems to have seen much better days. Still, I did enjoy my stay here and was thankful that I was able to find a hotel for such a long stay in such short notice.

While I'm absolutely positive the reason for this horrendous room will inevitably be blamed on Covid, it strikes me as odd that I should be charged full price for their lack of staff or care.

Completely agree with Pete M's review on April 29th…read more We were very pleased with our overnight stay at this hotel. It felt as if we were staying at an upscale hotel, not an 'Express' hotel. Check in was quick. The lobby amenities were explained to us. Everything about the room was very nice. There is a microwave and a very large refrigerator in the room. Room temperature was easy to regulate. Beautiful large screen TV with good reception. We were very impressed with the complimentary hot breakfast. Instead of the common 'make your own Belgium waffles', there was a machine that, with the touch of one button, automatically made you two pancakes. The pancakes tasted great and there was no mess like you often see with those Belgium waffle makes. How about this list of the other items that I can remember were offered: egg omelet, biscuits, gravy, turkey sausage, cinnamon rolls, cereals, apples, bananas, blueberry muffins, chocolate muffins, hard boiled eggs, bagels and other breads for toast. Lots of beverage options also including orange juice, hot chocolate, coffee. If we come back to Sidney, we will stay at this hotel again

I had the best time at this Marriott. Looking at the photos I took of my room, I'm reminded just…read morehow much I loved my stay and will always remember it. My visit to Muncie was made all the better just by staying at this hotel. According to the internet, the official name of the hotel is the Courtyard by Marriott Muncie at Horizon Convention Center. Whatta mouthful! I'll just call it the Marriott. I never liked the term "conveniently located," because it raises the question: convenient to whom? It's such a nebulous, throwaway phrase. But literally, this Marriott is conveniently located in downtown Muncie, in the middle of the city and within steps of many restaurants and attractions. There's even a terrific restaurant attached to the hotel that's located downstairs (1925 Pubhouse). The hotel is next door to the Muncie Children's Museum, within sight of the Muncie Visitors Bureau, and across the street from a grassy area where many outdoor concerts happen during the summer. If you want to not use your car very much when you visit Muncie, but you want to do a lot and visit a lot of places, this is a good hotel at which to stay. One of the cool things about this Marriott is that it is a teaching hotel, and provides job training and employment for people with disabilities. I love that. The dude who checked me out of my room, and the homie who kindly sold me a cup of coffee and avocado toast, both had disabilities. My lovely interactions with them were an integral part of me loving my stay. As for my room: It had a comfy king-sized bed with lots of pillows, a TV that you can connect to Amazon Prime and other streamers to watch your favorite movies about hundreds of beavers, a mini fridge to store water bottles and chill a bottle of white wine, and a view that overlooks the city. It is a nice, clean, functional, comfortable, restful and special hotel.

It has been over eight years since my original review of Muncie, Indiana's Courtyard by Marriott at…read moreHorizon Convention Center Since that time, I've stayed in the hotel any time I return to Muncie and it has become a regular part of my travel routine within Indiana. The hotel is a Marriott franchisee owned by Arc of Indiana, a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. The hotel is a "teaching" hospital and plays host to the Erskine-Green Training Institute - Indiana's first statewide hospitality training center for individuals with disabilities. The goal is to train folks with disabilities for a competitive wage jobs. The hotel itself is a for profit project that provides an immersive training ground for those interested in hospitality industry jobs.The hotel is contractually obligated to have at least 20% of its employees be persons with disabilities. While Scott Wise's Thr3e Wisemen Brewery was part of the hotel in the beginning, it has been replaced by a similarly themed 1925 Pubhouse that also serves as a training restaurant for Erskine-Green. Opened in December 2015, this Courtyard is a six-floor hotel that is attached to Thr3e Wisemen, the Muncie Children's Museum and the Horizon Convention Center. Originally targeted for the old Roberts Hotel, which was snatched up and turned into condos before the project was greenlighted, the hotel ended up being built on land donated by the city of Muncie. During training, Erskine-Green Training Institute students stay at the hotel, unless they are relatively local and commute, while in their 10-13 week training programs. This also means, of course, that this Courtyard is one of the most accessible hotels you can imagine. Truly. It offers a variety of accessibility options in the majority of its rooms including wheelchair accessibility, roll-in showers, and adaptive equipment for both visual and hearing impairments. Some of the rooms even have automated doors (though, ironically, mine wasn't working during my most recent stay). The hotel was recently renovated as it nears its 10th anniversary. It offers spacious rooms, contemporary/clean decor, a fair pricing point, an in-house bistro that offers breakfast and dinner, an around-the-clock Starbucks option (not full menu), a nice and wheelchair friendly pool, a fitness center, and even a check-in center that has been made accessible. You should know, as it's a tad confusing, that the parking in front of the hotel actually belongs to the new condos. Don't park there. They seem a tad moody. Instead, there's a parking garage behind the hotel where guests park for free (It's $1 an hour if you're just visiting). There's no doubt my affection for Erskine-Green somewhat skews my rating, and I'll acknowledge that while I seldom have any issues on this visit the automatic door didn't work (and it's quite heavy without the automatic feature) and a packed house due to a convention clearly had the staff a bit overwhelmed. Minor quibbles (though having stayed from Friday evening to Sunday, I was a bit bothered that no one bothered to address the automatic door). On the plus side, a previous tip I'd made to lower the bed had actually been implemented. Bravo. As this is centrally located in downtown, the hotel attracts a variety of traveling guests, businesses, and others. On one visit, I even met the duo from Air Supply in town for a concert (If you don't know Air Supply, move on - I'm old. Get over it). The meeting rooms were nicely equipped, there were charging stations all over the place and even more since the recent renovation added charging stations at tables. Profits from this hotel go to benefit the Erskine-Green Training Institute and other ARC projects. So, you have a terrific room at a fair price with great service and you're supporting a great organization working to put folks with disabilities in the workforce. It really doesn't get much better than that.

The children are so precious and silly and make the rooms light up when they're around. Not even disruptive! There are movies to watch and DVD players and TVs in each room. We had the Solomon room. I'll put pictures down below. This family and business deserves everything wonderful. There's not much super close to eat so if you want a good place you may have to drive 20 or more minutes. There is a gorgeous porch out front that wraps around most of the side and is so nice to sit and just have a cup of coffee on in the mornings. Please please check this place out. You will not be disappointed.
