Our pet-friendly hotel offers complimentary breakfast.
Very clean and nice hotel. Continental breakfast could be better, it was just all cold options. But the front desk people were great!!

It was ok. First hotel I ever stayed at that said they wouldn't allow you to change method of payment at check out. Wasn't very pleased with that but needed a room for the night

I booked a reservation through a third-party. I went to the hotel gave my credit card. Without entering the room, I went to breakfast and received an emergency call for work upon which I promptly returned to the hotel, indicating I did not need the room
The front desk staff acknowledged the room was not used. I was told by the front desk staff while they were talking to the manager for instructions In order for me to receive the refund, I would just have to cancel through the third-party first.
I explained my situation to dayuse and they obliged by issuing a cancellation.
While the third-party issued the cancellation without question, upper management later refused to issue a refund on their end, even though the room had not been touched.
Poor customer service

I had an exceptionally good experience at the Spark by Hilton in Merrillville IN. The building, furnishings, flooring, bathroom, paint, and surfaces have all been rehabbed/replaced. There was plenty of in room lighting. It was sparkling clean, the bed was very comfortable, and my room was very spacious. The furnishings are not necessarily intended to look rich, but they are new, clean, and unblemished. The staff were graciously intent on providing a positive experience. Breakfast is available, and coffee and tea are always available as well. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
