Modern/industrial chic design, large rooms, comfy bedding, fireplace, soft towels, "rainforest" shower, all the necessities and more. What else could you ask for in a hotel?
We found ourselves in Beloit for a wedding and we were honestly expecting to stay in a standard hotel for a night and dread it. Yet, stumbling upon this hotel in Yelp I instantly grew excited.
I splurged a bit for the Legacy Suite, as the rainforest shower with pebbled floors called for me. Online reservations were a breeze, as was checking in when we arrived although we were early. Thankfully our room was ready for us before the standard check-in time, as we needed to get changed for the wedding. Best of all, they offered us complimentary glasses of champagne. What an unexpected treat.
Walking into the room we had a long industrial desk that was home to the coffee machine (K-Cups), mini-fridge/mini-bar, wines with cork screw, work space, USB outlets and more. The other side was home to a large closet with storage built in, as well as the safe and microwave. At the end of the room was the living room with a super comfy leather pullout couch and chair, facing a wood wall with gas fireplace and TV above. Behind that wall was the king bed, with a view of the fireplace and another TV above. Outlets near the bed had USB plugs.
One of the walls of the bedroom is fogged glass, with the rainforest shower on the other side. The bathroom is huge, with a massive wood counter, free to use and comfy robes, super soft towels, and the mystical rainforest shower with black pebbled floors.
Unfortunately there was a stain on our sheets (I think just leftover detergent), so on our way out to the wedding we let them know. Staff apologized, said that should have never occurred and swiftly changed the entire bedding and left a hand-written note.
On our return from the wedding we finally got to checkout the rainforest shower. Oh my was it relaxing... water from above and a mounted wand from the side. I could have stayed in there all night. A unique highlight of the shower was actually the bar soap they provided. The bar soap had shavings of oak and flecks of pepper, which made for the most relaxing and exfoliating sensation. Honestly, the only thing missing from the bathroom would have been a heater, as it took sometime for the large bathroom to warm from the shower.
The only other criticisms I'd have for the room is that it would have been nice to have some room in the mini-fridge/mini bar to put some of our own items in it.
In the morning, I stopped down by the front desk and grabbed some complimentary baked good from a local bakery and decent coffee. It was a perfect holdover as we took advantage of the wonderfully late checkout.
Who would of thought hotel perfection could be found in Beloit?!
