Clean, comfortable and FAMILY FRIENDLY
The room was clean, spacious, and decently comfortable. They offer the standard toiletries (which smelled really nice!). The pillows were a little flat, but that was counteracted by offering 2 pillows per sleeper. You can tell that it's an older property (just a little run-down, not really modern decorations), and definitely not a 5-star hotel, but since that's not what we were looking for, we were fine with that. Everything was well cared for, public areas were clean & inviting. They have a wall of games and books for kids in the lobby! That was a VERY nice addition, and not something you see in most hotels.

Very nice breakfast. Bathtub is a potential for injury as the tub didn't have any non-slip material on the bottom. I would have liked to have a hairdryer available, but didn't try asking for one from the front desk..

The staff is super friendly. I would stay here again. We were told we were being upgraded, however, i pd for a room w a view on the second/third floor and was supposedly upgraded. However our supposed upgrade was parking level which i did not want. So not much of an upgrade, more of a downgrade so they kept everyone on ground level. The room is fine and the bed is comfy but due to security we moved the lounge chair and garbage in front of the door for safety because i do not like others being right in front of my room. It was clean and good for the price and stay. I'd stay again

Nice Place To Stay
The Cascades is a very nice, updated old-style motel. The rooms are clean and well appointed. The room sizes and styles vary. We have stayed there twice. The first room we stayed in had a more updated and larger bathroom. The second time it was more standard to the hotels era. Smaller but still well maintained. The furniture is update along with the televisions. The hotel has a nice courtyard and a bar on site that serves food. The staff is very nice. The breakfast is pretty simple. Most importantly it is a very good value and comfortable place to stay close to but not on the IU campus.

Doesn't look like much from the outside and it is a Motel, but the rooms are clean, big and comfortable. I would stay here again. Location is great if you want to walk to an IU game.

Cascades Inn is a unique place. It's rooms are comfortable. Beds & Sheets great. It's a little Bohemian and we'd love to stay when the courtyard is blooming. Adequate Continental breakfast. Try Sneakers bar adjacent for a nice drink, bar food and pleasant staff.

Nice local place that has comfortable rooms and nice breakfast. It needs some attention outside in maintaining the garden area as it doesn't look like the photos and is an older place.

INFESTED WITH MICE! MICE IN THE ROOMS & THEY COME OUT AT NIGHT. The front desk is very kind here however, I was challenged in getting a refund even thought I left the room at 11:30pm with out staying the entire night. I was not going to stay with the MICE! They indicated a refund would be applied but since it was booked via Expedia that's essentially impossible to secure a refund. A combination of things but blame goes to the Cascades Inn as they are definitely aware that there is a tremendous infestation throughout.

Don’t be fooled by the exterior of this diamond in the rough. The rooms and common areas have been renovated and are clean and nice. They do an above-average complimentary breakfast. And it’s consistently less costly than its competitors.

Everything inside the walls is above and beyond what you might expect. The continental breakfast is well-stocked, just no hot food. Staff is friendly and goes out of their way to help. The outside looks like it was once beautifully landscaped and then not kept up. We didn't care at all. The rooms are large. Furniture is not that comfortable, but there are enough options between sofa, desk chair, bed to figure something out. There is a steep walk out the back to a riverwalk. Maybe a one mile path along the creek that ends at a park. Really nice to stretch your legs without having to drive.
