Nice Place To Stay
The Cascades is a very nice, updated old-style motel. The rooms are clean and well appointed. The room sizes and styles vary. We have stayed there twice. The first room we stayed in had a more updated and larger bathroom. The second time it was more standard to the hotels era. Smaller but still well maintained. The furniture is update along with the televisions. The hotel has a nice courtyard and a bar on site that serves food. The staff is very nice. The breakfast is pretty simple. Most importantly it is a very good value and comfortable place to stay close to but not on the IU campus.

Doesn't look like much from the outside and it is a Motel, but the rooms are clean, big and comfortable. I would stay here again. Location is great if you want to walk to an IU game.

Nice
Nice local place that has comfortable rooms and nice breakfast. It needs some attention outside in maintaining the garden area as it doesn't look like the photos and is an older place.

Cascading and wonderful indeed
It’s was very worthwhile. Checking in and out was easy and the receptionists were detail oriented. Room was easy to find and the king size bed was comfortable. Breakfast was light on options but I managed to make do with what they had. My only gripe was the lack of hand soap or sanitizer by the sinks.

Good value for 🏈 weekend.
Rooms were nice and clean. Like the other reviews it doesn't look like much from the roadside, but was nice. Was told at front desk that our one room had a walk-in shower, but it did not.

Never Again
Never again. The courtyard garden might be nice but it doesn’t make up for the outdated and worn out room and fixtures. Very expensive for a subpar room.

We had a decent stay at Cascades Inn. The check in process was very easy and the staff is very nice. The rooms are very basic, albeit a wee bit outdated.
Our only complaint was the lack of air in the room. Yes, they do have a wall heater / air conditioning "unit". However, the air it blew was no where near cold - rather it was quite warm, which made it uncomfortable. Other than that, it offered us a place to lay our heads for the weekend in B'town.
