Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Champaign North, IL
All good. Late arrival, early depart. No problems, I would stop here again if passing. I "lived" in the Raddison Hotel in Fargo ND 4 nights/week for 5 years. Experienced.

Staff was super kind! Parking was easy to navigate. The area around is super quiet and calm. Breakfast options I’ll say were a bit lacking but it’s free so I can’t complain much! Enjoyed my trip and my stay.
