We were greeted by Don who was doing some work on the front door. He was very welcoming and offered some tips on parking near Notre Dame since we were there to visit our son who is a student and attend a football game.
It felt just like we were coming into someone’s home. Upside: warm & welcoming; Downside: a bit messy & unorganized upon first impression.
We arrived at 2:45 for a 3pm check in and Don told us to go ahead that our room was ready but when we opened the door, it was not. Nothing had been done since the previous guests left. This was disappointing as we were hoping for a quick shower and nap before heading to campus. We had just driven for 7 hours. But we were able to store our bags in the room and head back out. All was well when we returned for the night.
Overall, it was quiet and clean. We slept well although the bed felt a bit unstable. No amenities to speak of and the bedding was sparse in my opinion. A sheet and thin bedspread. No blanket to be found.
Not sure if we’ll stay again, but, again, it is a good location only 3 miles from campus. Very quiet and we felt safe.
