First Heritage Inn Rantoul

Toilet seat was broken.  Breakfast was not good and didn’t have much options for how much we paid for the night.  Bugs on the wall and in the room.  Blanket didn’t look clean enough to sleep in. Probably won’t be back here.

Horrible room. Bathroom door would not close. Microwave made a loud noise when used. Freestanding water on the bathroom floor. Toilet seat was not bolted correctly to the toilet. Wall paper coming off the walls. Breakfast bar was a joke. No milk for the cereal. Nothing to put on bangles. Pool had old green water still in it. Looked liked the pool has not been used or cleaned for years. I will never stay there again!!

Perhaps ownership has changed: this is now the First Heritage. I'd suggest you consider it LAST, though, after my recent two-night stay. -- Sleeping was almost impossible the first night. It was a chilly night, and the weatherstripping on the door was absent--one could see outside light around three sides of the door. The bed had only a sheet and light bedspread, no blanket in any of the drawers. One of the two pillows was about 10" thick ad didn't compress. I was able to get both an adequate blanket and a standard pillow for the second night. If you stay here, check these as soon as you get to your room and ask for needed items right away. -- Wi-fi may be free, but it didn't reach to the end unit in enough strength to allow me to send messages, a major problem for me, since I was trying to coordinate visits with several different people on this trip. If you need Wi-fi, it may help to request a unit close to the office. -- Maintenance is terrible. In order to turn off he bathroom sink faucet, one must push down so hard that it's become detached from the countertop. The tub/shower faucet, on the other hand, was very loose, but I could find settings only for boiling hot or uncomfortably cool. It was so bad that I forewent a shower the second night. -- One of the two chairs had a collapse cushion, making it quite uncomfortable. -- Another sign of lax maintenance: there is a space to hang clothes in the bathroom, but the rack is so rusty that I feared rust would flake off and discolor my clothes. I've stayed in this motel before, and it was quite nice. It's sad to see how it's deteriorated.

Very / Very out dated / un kept / run down. Lobby is very much in need of repair / wouldn't consider eating any breakfast supplied except the bananas. Would not sit on the couch in the lobby. Stairs to access the upstairs are a hazard ! Rooms all had a very strong odor of trying to mask smells. Had to keep my door open as the window would not open. Stains on the 2 chairs in the room. Room seems to have been painted 10 years ago by a blind person. Holes in wall above bed where a picture or something was once hung. Towels were stained and black hairs were found in some. Pillows and bedding - only 1 sheet no blankets were questionable. Your 1st impression as you drive up is to look elsewhere and that is exactly what I advise you to do. We should have done the same except for the non fundable refund policy and no other places close by with vacancies. Also DO NOT believe the validity of pictures posted - were true once BUT how long ago ? Run away !
