Way below its potential

Reviewed By longtimefoodie

Over the decades (back to its Jumer's origin) we've stayed at the BWPI and have encouraged our Knox reunion classmates to do likewise because of its potential to be the best lodging in Galesburg. However, continuous degradation of the premises means that we're unlikely to ever stay again. Cleanliness is a big problem. The chair and the carpet in our room were quite soiled, but friends had it worse. Their chair arm was completely broken, they wouldn't walk barefoot on the carpet and there were hairs in the bathroom. Images and descriptions on the website are attractive and inviting. However, there is no restaurant on the premises, only an attractive area that is a breakfast room (not great, but the food was warm and freshly prepared food) that closes for the rest of the day at 10AM. The adjacent bar is small and it was filled with a raucous, possibly local, group. The only place where could gather in the evening was the lobby on just a few chairs and a couple of sofas. Right next to the reception desk was a row or 3 or 4 slots that were busy morning to night. The hostess very graciously gave us some glasses for a bottle of wine we brought. She understood why we would not want to be in the bar. If only the experience would be as nice as the photos we would stay again. The view from our room into the courtyard was wonderful, but certainly not enough to overcome the other problems. The BWPI simply does not live up to its potential. We will stay elsewhere next time, even though the alternatives are not particularly appealing either.

This hotel is the best that we have stayed at in Galesburg. The rooms are clean. The staff are friendly and always greeted us. The breakfast was very good. The food was fresh and bagels and muffins are individually wrapped. I think the rate is high for the area, but the hotel does perform to a high standard.

Would stay here again, but not on the interstate end!

Reviewed By Minnes0taSue

Hotel did not look that full, however we were put in a room at the end of the hall RIGHT next to the interstate. Very loud. I understand if it is late and hotel is full, but felt like a punishment! Plenty of places nearby to get something to eat. Room and bathroom clean. Just recommend you ask which end of the building you are in.

Overnight stay

Reviewed By Bob D

Stayed before an early-morning Amtrak trip. Temperature hit 5 degrees below zero that night, but the entire hotel and my room were comfortably warm. Room was typical of a Quality Inn. Everything was clean and worked properly. Plenty of hot water in the shower and sink. Hot breakfast was in operation and was good. Price was reasonable. This is my current go-to hotel in Galesburg if/when I need to travel from there.

A pleasant stay at Americinn

Reviewed By Bonnie D

I've stayed at Americinn twice recently and I plan on returning. The hotel is clean; the rooms are comfortable, and the staff is welcoming , friendly and accommodating. The staff was especially kind to my disabled adult daughter who is chatty and asks a lot of questions. Some hotel workers just seemed annoyed; not the case here. Bonnie Davidson
