Hotels Near Purdue University - Department of Physics and Astronomy in Wabash Township

The Union Club is part of the Marriott Autograph Collection and is located on Purdue’s campus. Its centralized location allows you to easily walk to any location at Purdue. It is close to the bookstore and several restaurants. The hotel is well maintained and very clean. The staff are punctual and friendly, and their eagerness to please is witnessed as soon as you enter the lobby and multiple staff members offer to help you out and hold the door. My only complaint would be that the bathrooms have absolutely no counter space. The bathrooms are large, but the vanity is small. There is also really nowhere to hang a towel or a travel bag, unless you want to use the safety bars in the shower. I understand whomever designed the bathroom was going for a minimalist design, but sometimes this isn’t practical when you have multiple people sharing a bathroom. See attached pic.

This is a fantastic hotel. Great staff, nice rooms, clean. And I'm not usually the type to leave a review

Breakfast is self-help, American breakfast, don't say it, can eat enough without problems. Parking is charged, $5 a night, next to a Pakistani Romance, and other Chinese food, good

We stayed at this property 10 years ago and loved it. Unfortunately, our most recent visit revealed that things have gone WAY downhill since then. Our issues: -the elevators weren't working properly so we mainly had to take the stairs -we only received one threadbare towel and no washcloths; we called the front desk and the staffer asked us to come down to get more because she was the only one working; the second towel was equally threadbare and also stained -the shower diverter didn't work well and the tub didn't drain, so we had to take our showers in a tub full of scummy water -the shower curtain was extremely mildewed -the pillow cases were stained A few positives remain-- great location; clean and spacious rooms; friendly staff (the few who were there)--but that's not enough for us to come back. There are so many other similarly-priced but nicer hotels in Lafayette & West Lafayette - we'll choose one of them next time.

I was pleasantly surprised by our stay at this motel. It's rated as a 2 star motel, but honestly, I think it should be much higher. Our room was a good size, clean, and had some updates done. The front desk worker was very kind and helpful, and they did have a small but nice area for quick breakfast. They had coffee, and prepackaged mini muffins and sticky buns - which is all we needed. We came in to see our son at Purdue and had been unable to find lodging. While the football game resulted in rates at all lodging to be high, this one was the least expensive and we enjoyed our stay. I'd stay here again, it was safe and clean. The only thing of mention to the staff would be the lights outside the room. While I love the security of it, we had a light right above our window so it didn't allow us the darkest room for sleeping.

I have stayed many times. The location is very close to Purdue University. There is free parking. There is a covered atrium inside. The room equipment is not very new, and the hygiene is good. The front desk service in the impression is very good, that is, when I booked the hotel through Ctrip and said that I did not receive the money, please contact Ctrip directly to solve it. Generally, it can meet the general business travel and can be booked.

This is a nice hotel, but I can't give it more than a 3 stars. We had a double queen suite for one night which was nice, clean and comfortable. However, we needed to use the silverware that is provided, but none was in the drawer. Didn't occur to me to check the dishwasher, but that is where we found it the next day. Also had to rewash the dishes that were in the cabinet before using them. Thought that would have been something that maid service would have taken care before our stay. It is difficult to enter the hotel from the door in the back, had to either enter by one of the side doors or walk all around the hotel to get in. Could not enter the pool area using the outer door either due to the handle not working. Both doors did respond to the key, but just would not open. The outdoor firepit did not light when I tried it. When we got to our room, there was only one extra toilet paper, not a big deal, but I wanted more since there was three girls in the room. I went to the front desk to ask for more and had to wait 10 minutes for the employee to come out of the office. The TV guide channel was way off. We stayed on May 28th, the guide was saying May 9th, and the time did not change from 10am when it was late afternoon when we turned it on. Not a huge deal either, we did find something to watch, but having an updated guide does help. We did use the pool, but it was colder than I expected, thought it was supposed to be heated and the floor got extremely slippery once water was on the surface of the pool deck. And lastly, we were sitting in the lobby talking and the fire alarm was going off throughout the entire hotel for about 10 minutes. Thankfully it was a false alarm, but no one seemed to have a sense of urgency to turn it off. I even overheard another guest complain at the front desk about the alarm because he was sleeping, and it didn't seem to matter to the employee. The hotel does offer breakfast which was actually very nice. I'm not sure if they change the menu daily or not, but there was fresh scrambled eggs and bacon which were pretty good and the usual staple items that were fresh. I would probably stay here again, but they need to fix the door handles, do something about the tiled pool deck when it gets wet, so no one really hurts themselves, make sure the pool water is warm like bath water, and have employees that have a better sense of urgency to take care of the guests.

My family and I stayed the night on December 21st celebrating our daughter's birthday with a basketball game and dinner afterwards. I had stayed at the property several years ago and was positive experience. Check in went fine other than I requested digital key earlier in day and front desk said their digital key system wasn't working. The room met our needs and our family left to go to the game. When we returned from the game and dinner, we went to our room and when I attempted to open the door, somehow the security latch flipped to engage and not allow us to open the door and access our room. I went downstairs to the night desk clerk to inform him what had occurred. He indicated that ”this has happened before” and that there was a tool to open the door, but did not know where it was or how to do it. He said he'd have to call someone to help. We explained that all our belongings and necessary medications and medical equipment were in our room that we needed. The desk clerk offered us a room to wait while we were displaced while he attempted to get assistance. After more than an hour of no updates on access to our room, we went downstairs to inquire. We explained that our daughter had a breathing condition, was having a difficult time breathing, and that her nebulizer/medication were in the room. The clerk continued to try and call someone, but said his manager, Michelle, was not answering. He did not have any other options to call and gave us her number on a post-it and said we could try! Our daughter's condition deteriorated and we ended up have to call 911 and have emergency ambulance personnel come to our displaced room to give her a necessary breathing treatment at 1:00am in the morning. Her condition was at that point, nearly ambulatory and the paramedics were dumbfounded, as we were, the protocols in place at the hotel to deal with the situation. Even after our daughter was treated, we received no follow up from the front desk if everything was ok or if we needed anything. Truly a horrible and avoidable experience. We attempted to rest in the clothes we had worn all day, nothing to take contacts out, no necessary or convenience items, everyone was upset due to emergency personnel being in our room, all on our daughter's birthday. By 8:00am the next morning, we had STILL heard nothing about access to our original room. I went downstairs to the front desk and asked the employee who had relieved the night desk clerk. When she asked if we were in 213, she advised that she gained access to the room right when she came in at 7:00am. I frustratingly asked her, ”why didn't someone let us know”, she smartly said she really did us a favor because she wasn't even on the clock when she did it. I asked to speak to the hotel manager. The clerk said she wasn't there and didn't know when she'd be in. I explained that I wished to speak with the manager and she called her on her cell phone and handed me the phone. I spoke briefly wi
