Is a safe, quiet and convenient location. Best price in the area, staff was excellent They seem to be improving the property. It was about what I expected for a $50 hotel room.

Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Merrillville, IN
Didn't go to breakfast, so I can't comment about that. The room was clean, although the bathtub could have used a deep cleaning, and the water pressure wasn't great. There are plenty of restaurants and stores nearby. The staff war very friendly and helpful
