Perfect stay in Rantoul
The hotel was prefect and the staff had. A very friendly long time friendly like atmosphere just asking some genuine question and seem invested in getting to not only know was as customers but also people by recommendations of restaurants near by and also by telling us some history about the town. The room was clean and easy to find aswell. I will be recommending the Illini Inn to all future friends and family planning to make the trip.
