Home2 Suites by Hilton Carbondale

10/10 Excellent
"Great place stay, especially if you’ll be spending time in the room. Great amenities and spaces in the room and common areas. Easy walk to nearby bars and food, but definitely geared toward college students. Not complaining, but not a good destination for better dining. Also a little questionable walking around at night."
