    The hotel is by far the best option in Sparta IL and nearby towns. The cleanliness and quality of the room and property were great, staff was very friendly and helpful, and the pool/ hot tub were a welcome bonus. I stayed for several nights and never had any problems.The breakfast bar had great options whether one wishes to eat healthy or indulge in some heavier fare!
