Quality Inn Carbondale University area, hotel in Carbondale

This Carbondale, Illinois hotel is less than a 10-minute drive from Southern Illinois University. This Quality Inn features a heated indoor pool, a gym and rooms with free Wi-Fi.

My recent stay at Quality Inn exceeded my expectations in every way. From check-in to check-out, the experience was smooth and enjoyable. Upon arrival, I was greeted warmly by the sunny, who was not only friendly but also very helpfull. The check-in process was quick, and I was soon settling into my room. Speaking of the room, it was immaculately clean and well-appointed. The bed was exceptionally comfortable, and I had no trouble getting a good night's sleep. The amenities provided were more than sufficient, and I appreciated the attention to detail in ensuring guests' comfort. One aspect that stood out to me was the value for money. Despite being reasonably priced, the Quality Inn didn't compromise on quality or service. The complimentary breakfast offered a variety of options, catering to different tastes and dietary preferences. The location of the hotel was also convenient, with easy access to nearby attractions and dining options. Whether I was exploring the area or simply relaxing in my room, I felt at ease throughout my stay. Overall, I highly recommend Quality Inn to anyone looking for a comfortable and affordable accommodation option.

    Loved walking the campus and seeing familiar buildings as well as a lot of new ones! Still a very beautiful campus! Enjoyed walking down Illinois St in Carbondale and reminiscing! The old DQ building is still there but the name has changed. We spoke to the owner, Mark, who’s lived there 50 years and he remembered all the places we hung out! He was a walking/living encyclopedia and it was such a joy to speak to him! He even made us a Boston Shake which we have never been able to get anywhere but there!! He told us to try Quantros Pizza for dinner, which we did, and it was delicious all! It’s located in the same area where one of our old hangouts was, Spudnuts Donut Shop, so it was fun to go there for the memories made in the very same place many decades ago!

    Carbondale is one of the nicer towns in Southern Illinois.

    Carbondale is one of the nicer towns in Southern Illinois. It is close to Giant City Park, lakes and Southern Illinois University is south of town. I always enjoy going there, visiting the different places and enjoying the many and varied activities going on.

    The trip to Carbondale was great!

    The trip to Carbondale was great!However coming from my meeting back to the room seemed to be more than challenging. The first thing I noticed was the TV had issues and wasn't connecting or showing pictures or sounds. After that episode I went to take a shower and the Shower curtains didn't extend all around to keep water inside of tub but splashed onto the floor(very difficult to shower),finally got out of shower to call front desk and the Room service phone wasn't working (no dial tone),used my personal phone to contact Front Desk. Front desk very busy which meant I had to keep using my phone to make contact with her but to no avail she stated it was nothing she could do being that no management was on duty. The Front desk person apologized promising she would leave my concerns to morning manager to be addressed. Later on that morning during checkout I reiterated what was previously stated because he claimed he couldn't find any notes related to my situation. After all of the chaos another episode begin stated he would turn my complaint over to the manager and someone will be contacting me within an hour,well it's been iver24 hours and no one from the establishment has reached out to me.

    We’re in a strip shopping mall placed to eat… The best places were IHOP!! Awesome cooks…and the Applebee’s great cook, bartender.. could have been a little more friendly.. margaritas were great. The people here really don’t like outsiders coming here to work. Sad but true…. I WILL NEVER!!!! Come here to work again. Big mistake. PLEASE BE AWARE OF THE PEOPLE THST OWN THIS MOTEL… THEY SRE DOUBLE CHARGING YOUR CREDIT AND DEBIT CARDS!!! NO LIE… THEY STARTED OUT AS FRIENDLY… BE AWARE… GO DOWN THR STREET TO THE COMFORT INN OR ANOTHER HOTEL… THIS IS THE TRUTH!!!

    Carbondale is one of the best kept secrets in America.

    Carbondale is one of the best kept secrets in America. The surrounding area is gorgeous - almost mountainous if you drive out about 30 min. The college is fantastic with its own woods and lake. If fact, it is one of the prettiest colleges I have seen. The town is fairly collegiate with liberal college stuff.....pride flags and vegan restaurants and a few clandestine Marijuana shops - as would be expected from a college town.

    The location is great. It is close to the college. The price is great. The room was ok. I have stayed in worse hotels. It was better than sleeping in my car. This was the last hotel room in town on parents weekend.
