Hardly any thing in the kitchen for cooking, everything continuously locked up, asked for salt and pepper, I was told all there was , already in your room.. 1 pepper pack and 2 salt packs... No ice bucket... Had to take 1 of 2 kitchen pans to get ice. The room was clean, the staff was very nice, but if you stay here expect the bare minimum

Staff was nice. Room was clean but very well used. Sofa couch looks like it had been there since 1970s. whole establishment needs to be redone. Very old and creepy vibes. Hallway odorous. Next to a noisy freeway. Would definitely not stay again.

For the price of the room, this hotel was good. Convenient off the highway with food options within walking and driving distance. Rooms could be updated but they were clean. Staff was very nice & friendly.

Room 302 was terrible. It stunk so badly that even after the windows were opened and a fan was circulating that room for 8 hours it still smelled so bad. The sheets smelled bad, pillows, and towels too. I assume it's probably in the carpet too. One of the bath towels was also dirty, and so was a wash cloth.
Friendly and patient staff. All the other rooms were great! We will be back! Breakfast was great! I bought 5 rooms and 4/5 were great! Thank you for hosting us!

We liked that the staff was very friendly, check in was a breeze. The rooms were very neat and clean.
We do think it would be a good thing to clean the carpet in the breakfast area and the hallways.

I don't think I could have gotten more for my money. This is an older property so it's a little frayed in places, but the hardworking (yes, I watched them) staff keep it clean and tidy as possible. I found all of the staff members to be helpful and courteous.I was left with a warm feeling when I checked out.

The pool water was way too cold and the stove barely worked which defeated the purpose of going. But it was still a good time. Plus the room was very clean.

The staff was very efficient and friendly.
This property needs some TLC. Surprised that Marriott would let one of their properties get this run down.
Our bed was uncomfortable, sagged in the middle.
Air conditioner quite loud.
Printer downstairs broken so unable to print boarding passes.

Nice room. Quiet. All in all it was quite fine for my stay. The drain in the bathtub didn't work quite right. That's all.

My family and I stayed for 4 nights and 5 days. We enjoyed the full kitchen because we could cook the groceries that we bought saving some money from constantly eating out. We were impressed with the variety and quality of options for their complimentary breakfast. The staff are all very helpful when we need to borrow things we suddwnly needed.
Their outdoor pool was closed but we were allowed to use the indoor pool of Fairfield Suites which is just a couple of minutes walk.
We had a fantastic stay and next time we go to Bloomington, we are definitely staying athe TownePlace again.

Hotel should be ashamed to gouge customers there to view the eclipse - charging $500/night for an outdated, shabby, raggedy room. Carpet in the room was stained in several places; sofa looked like it had been there for at least 2 decades; burners on stove were old and worn; furniture appeared to have come from a thrift shop. The hotel needs some serious upgrading and updating, especially if they're going to have the nerve to overprice to such a degree during special events.
On the plus side, 1) every employee we dealt with was exceptionally friendly & helpful; 2) breakfast was good; 3) parking was convenient; 4) hotel is well-located for getting/off interstate
