Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Champaign North, IL
Room was perfect, clean and fresh. Front desk person was polite and cheerful. Inside hotel was nice and welcoming. My only concern was that the sidewalks/parking lot had not been cleared from the recent snow so there was a very thick layer of ice that was slippery and hard to walk/drive on.
