My spouse and I took a weekend at the end of May (beginning of June) 2025 and went to Valparaiso to check out the area. We spent a Friday night and a Saturday night at this Country Inn & Suites. Overall, it was quite acceptable. Our check-in process on Friday evening went smoothly, and our room (#305) was clean and comfortable. However, it had kind of a funky smell. Perhaps it used to be a smoking room. It wasn't bad enough for us to request a different room, so we dealt with it... but it was slightly annoying. I will say... one thing I loved about the hotel was the friendly staff. Super, super nice people working there. I also really liked the location... near the campus of the university and between downtown and the IN-49 highway. I can't really speak much about the amenities. I'm sure breakfast was okay, but we ended up having breakfast elsewhere both mornings of our stay. This hotel does have an indoor pool but no hot tub, unfortunately. (We could tell that there used to be a hot tub here, but it had permanently been closed at some point in the past, which is a bummer.) All in all, we had a pleasant stay.
