They have breakfast from 6 to 9 in the mornings with hot choices as well as cereals and breads. They had popcorn when we arrived in the lobby, and the people behind the desk were very friendly helped us get through probably quicker than I can never remember getting through a hotel desk. The rooms are spacious and clean price was very reasonable, but in this location, I would expect that. I would imagine since it's only a few miles away from Holiday world that during the summer months, the price of hotels are probably higher here, there's a number of restaurants around Wendy's McDonald's Subway and CVS up on the corner. Very comfortable nice large TV refrigerator and microwave in the rooms as well.

They are going through an ownership change, but the change came with a ton of drama for groups with…read moreblocks previously booked. After calling and booking a block for our group a month in advance we were left with minimal communication and several different answers when calling to book/confirm rooms. Nobody had a real answer for us. One employee said we had 11 rooms blocked, another said we had 16 blocked but when calling to book/confirm we were told the hotel was sold out. Only 8 of us were able to book through the block, leaving others to be charged higher rates. They blamed the issues on the manager walking out/quitting but ultimately it was an issue that the new owner should never have let happen in the first place. Their refusal to work with our contract was a slap in the face. One if guests were only able to book for 2 nights and had to bunk with another family, claiming they were full for the night, meanwhile TWO rooms were ajar all night directly across from my room. The breakfast was put up early most days, the pool went from a beautiful blue to swamp green overnight. Overall it was clean (minus the ants thay were all iver our table), the staff was nice and it would probably be fine if you were just staying as an individual rather than a group. If you are lodging as a group I would definitely take my business elsewhere. Forgot to add they charged the wrong card, I booked with one card asking them to charge another card upon arrival. They agreed to but still charged my card I asked them to change. I have been waiting for management to call me back since Monday. Its now the following Sunday and still nothing.

The owners are very nice and accommodating. They will work with you whatever the situation is.read more

The rooms are the best maintained I've in town across several work trips, the front desk, attendees are polite, helpful, and courteous, and it's located right in the middle of everything. It offers a large waiting pool, hot breakfast, and clean eggs, biscuits, sausage, waffles, and all the rest, and fresh, hot coffee, and cookies at the front are a nice touch. The downsides of noticed are that the sheets and beds, well comfortable pillow tops, seem to likely be synthetic and have me feeling confusingly, sweaty even with the air conditioner turned on, and the fitness room is long overdue for some very basic maintenance: the cable machine only has one side that works because the adjustment is broken on the other, and the weight bench adjustment knob has fallen off, keeping it flat and making a lot of exercise exercises not possible. Nonetheless, the pool is quite nice and large, and two treadmills, and elliptical, and a peloton spin bike are available.

Hotel The Hampton…read moreInn in Jasper has been around for a long time. It is a solid 3-star hotel within the Hilton family of hotels. The folks working here are exceptionally nice and helpful. The hotel overall is somewhat dated and is in need of a facelift. The room was the standard Hampton Inn room: bed / bath, TV and a refrigerator and a desk area to work at, if needed. Room was in good shape. Bed was comfy enough and the heat worked. Hot water took a little bit of time to get going and on the last day, the water suddenly lost pressure and dribbled out of the shower - thankfully I was just finished or I would have not been a happy camper. Bath sink was draining extremely slow so I mentioned it to the front desk and by the time I returned to the room that afternoon the problem was completely solved. Very good response on that. They have a free breakfast bar in the mornings and although it is nothing gourmet, it will get you up and going without adding to the cost of your trip. The front desk also have Grab-n-go breakfast bags in the event you are in a hurry to get to where you are going Overall a solid place to stay if in the area. Plenty of parking available.

This Fairfield hotel in Jasper, Indiana is pleasant, pretty clean, and generally well maintained…read more The "king suite" room that I got was definitely smaller than what I would expect for something being marketed as a "suite", but include a mini fridge and microwave, which may have been what made the distinction, and what I was looking after anyway. It seems like it was updated within the last couple of years, with a nice, comfortable bed, and furnishings mostly in good condition. On my criticisms, I am *really* nitpicking here: The only downside, which I noted was mentioned in another review from a few months ago was that cleanliness could've been a tiny bit better. Nothing that gave me the "ick" but the shower definitely needed to have the caulking stripped out and replaced because there was some mildew under it, in spite of it appearing to have been cleaned pretty well otherwise with no water spots and everything wiped down aside from a few tiny spots in corners. The air conditioner was also a bit noisier than it should've been, with a slightly slow sink. To summarize: felt pretty darn, clean and well-maintained, but fell just short of being "five stars" at this price level. My room had a absolutely gorgeous view of the river, and the hotel itself is located within a few minutes of the town center, and a number of restaurants here and within 15 minutes at the next town over.

The parking was confusing for us and we ended up parking further away, only later finding the correct parking lot when walking around.

Definitely would stay again though if I was in the area.

CAVEAT EMPTOR Hello…read moretraveler. Yes you the person reading this. Have you ever wanted to spend 500+ dollars on a room with no microwave. No mini-fridge. disgustingly stained bedding A ceiling covered in cobwebs, and an AC that hasn't seen maintenance in at least 5 years? Then I can genuinely say that Santa's Lodge is for you. I genuinely don't know where the nerve to call this place a resort comes from so i won't be including that descriptor.. I've stayed in red roof ins. Hotel motels, but Santas Lodge is easily the worst room I've seen for what you're paying. I will be going far far away from this place and recommend any person to do the same. these people do not care about the property, let alone your business or comfort. Is it close to Holiday world? Yes, that's probably the nicest thing I can say about it. But so are the Cottages and those at least have clean rooms. Lesson, Do not trust any review without photos. See photos below in case you think there's exaggeration.

This hotel was acceptable, but lower than my standards of a regular hotel. This message shows all…read morethe things that was considered a con (in my opinion) When me and my family walked into the hotel lobby, we were immediately hit with a smell that was not extremely unpleasant, but it was still considered bad. When we arrived at the front desk, there was nobody there. We then waited 30 seconds, and then an employee came to the front. For about 5 seconds, he just stared at us, and then proceeded to walk away. It was very rude in my opinion. We then realized that there was a phone on our left with a sign saying "dial 0 to get front desk help" so we called it. We immediately heard a loud ringtone sound, and it was coming from a phone not even 4 feet away from us behind the counter. We then got assistance. Once we got our keycard, we then went into the elevator. The second we stepped in, we realized there wasn't much room, and it was extremely hot. We didn't mind it that much. When we arrived on our floor and walked down the hall to our room, while we passed by the other rooms, you could hear conversations clearly. Once we got in, we were shocked by the setup when you first walk in, having the sink being right on your right completely separated from the other bathroom appliances. When I walked into the bathroom, I saw on the shower curtain it was pretty dusty and dirty. When we walked in and saw our beds, we realized the pillows were extremely small. One of the lights was also burned out. One of my family members found a couple black hairs still on the pillow from the previous people. The TV was not a flatscreen like the one at home, and the model was very old. When we turned it on by pressing a button on the side, we tried to then access regular streaming services like Netflix, and Disney+ but Netflix never worked. On the Disney+ app, we were able to get on 1 episode of bluey, but then it completely stopped working halfway through. We decided to go to bed with our tiny pillows, and the air conditioner was creaking and randomly blasting big puffs of air, which made a pretty loud sound for 10:45 PM. I slept in the bed on the far right when you walk in, and chose to sleep on the right side of that bed (closest to the window). I would not recommend sleeping in the same spot I did, because the curtains don't cover the whole window and you will get waken up by 7:30 AM, while your family still sleeps. I am writing this at 7:45 AM currently, telling you what had happened in only 10 hours of our trip.

We stay at Baymont properties often... Madison, ChicagoLand, Minneapolis... and have always had…read morenice experiences. So when I saw there was a Baymont ten minutes from Holiday World, I booked it over the newer Holiday Inn Express in Jasper. Mind you, Holiday Inn was priced the same as Baymont. The experience was very disappointing. - Condition of the property overall was a bit dated. The location of the hotel is on a dead-end cul de sac surrounded by a couple abandoned buildings. I supposed the owners can't control that... it was just a run-down neighborhood. - I booked a King Deluxe room. Immediately upon entering the room, we were hit with the powerful smell of... I guess cheap cleaning supplies? We couldn't put our finger on it. So I went back to the desk and asked for another room. They offered me a comparable one that I went and checked out... same smell. So we cut our losses and stayed put. My partner thought the smell was like mold/wet basement. I couldn't put my finger on the scent... but it was not right. - The room... one of the three fixtures on the vanity was permanently broken. The duvet had had some orange/brown stains, I found two long pieces of women's hair that were not ours. There were condensation ring stains on the coffee table, the tub had these black stains by the drain, and the window opened, but there was no screen (we were on the third floor... extremely unsafe if there was a child). - Saturday evening we came back from Holiday World. Our keys worked for entry to the side door. However, neither key worked on our room. I go to the front desk... no one there... there's a sign to dial 0 for assistance. A man answers and tells me he'll be right there. I wait 4-5 minutes... call again... same man acts confused.... Shows up a minute later, carrying a plate of food and eating. - The continental breakfast was very poor. In comparison to other Baymont properties, this was a sad display... wet powdered eggs, grayish sausage links. Smushed hash browns. Mind you, the breakfast opens at 6:30. I arrived at 7:03 am Saturday morning, and all the hot food was gone... I only know the condition of the food b/c I went back Sunday morning to scope the spread. Unfortunately, we did not feel this meal was satisfactory or what we expected for what we paid. So we paid to eat at Denny's down the street. This Baymont property is nowhere near brand standards. It is not professionally maintained or cleaned. For the price, you can stay at much nicer properties 20 minutes away in Jasper. We'll be doing that next year... overall this was a very disappointing experience. For reference, I like to post when we have positive experiences at hotels/restaurants. But I think folks should really know what's going on at this property before they make the investment. And if you're trying to save a buck, there are much nicer places in the area at the same price point.
