Alright, rambling time…

First things first, location, location, location! I chose this particular SureStay Plus! because it was supposedly… and I use that word loosely… close to the [mention specific attraction or thing you were near]. I had a mission, you see, and it involved… well, let's just say I needed to be near the action without breaking the bank.

Accessibility: A Mixed Bag, Sadly.

Now, I'm not in a wheelchair myself, but I did have a friend with mobility issues tagging along. So accessibility was a big concern. The elevators? Yes, thankfully! A huge win. Wheelchair access throughout the public areas? Mostly, with some minor glitches. I noticed a couple of tight turns near the Restaurant. It wasn't perfect, but it was trying. Honestly, it’s better than some places where you get the distinct feeling they’ve never even thought about accessibility.

The Rooms: My Personal Fortress (Mostly)

The room itself? Decent. Air conditioning? Check. Free Wi-Fi? Double check! And it ACTUALLY WORKED! (A miracle in some hotels, let me tell you). The bed was comfortable, though I'm pretty sure a rogue feather from the comforter attacked me in the middle of the night. (Okay, maybe not, but it felt that way). Blackout curtains? Bliss. I demand blackout curtains and the separate shower/bathtub was a win for my friend with mobility issues. However, the extra long bed wasn’t as long as advertised. More like extra… short. And there was a window that opens. Great for a draft in the winter!

Cleanliness and Safety: A Sanitized Oasis (Mostly)

Listen, I went during a time when hygiene was, shall we say, top of mind. Daily disinfection in common areas? Yep. Hand sanitizer dispensers EVERYWHERE? You betcha. Rooms sanitized between stays? They claimed so – and I saw the little "sanitized" sticker on the door. Did I believe it 100%? Nah. But it looked good. The staff wore masks and were trained in safety protocols. You had the option to opt-out from room sanitization, if you so desired. I didn’t, because I'm paranoid! I’m mostly joking, though, but I am a germaphobe at heart. There were Anti-viral cleaning products used too, which gave me the reassurance that I needed.

Dining, Drinking, and Snacking: The Culinary Adventures (and Occasional Disasters)

Okay, let's talk food. This is where things got interesting. Breakfast was included. (Score!) But the Asian breakfast…? Well. Let’s just say the "Asian breakfast" was… adventurous. I’m pretty sure the "mystery meat" was a holdover from the Paleolithic age. I'm not even sure what it was supposed to be. Let's just say, I stuck to the buffet. The Buffet in the Restaurant was… a buffet. Standard fare. Coffee/tea in the restaurant? Yes, but it tasted like despair. The Bar was small but friendly. It has Happy hour which was an awesome surprise! I ordered a bottle of water at one point because I was really thirsty, and it came quickly.

The On-Site Accessible Restaurants and Lounges:

I'm not going to dive into every aspect of the restaurant. But the restaurant was Wheelchair accessible, it had a good Menu and you could get A la Carte meals if you weren't up for the whole buffet. The poolside bar was awesome.

Things to Do, Ways to Relax: Spa Days and Swimming Pools!

The Swimming pool? Yes! The Swimming pool [outdoor]? Yes! It was lovely, but the pool area was a little cramped. The Pool with view was gorgeous – a definite highlight. There was also a Fitness center, though I'm pretty sure I saw a treadmill that was older than I am. There was a Sauna too! And a Spa/Sauna for an extra luxury! They even offered a Massage! I didn't try it out, but I heard some guests say that it was outstanding!

Services and Conveniences: The Good, the Bad, and the "Meh."

Concierge? Yes, and they were actually helpful! (A rarity, sometimes). Daily housekeeping? Check. They provided Essential condiments, because sometimes you need to eat a simple meal in your room. Luggage storage? Sure thing. Doorman? Nope. Elevator? You bet. Cash withdrawal was available too. Free car park? Yes!

The quirky stuff!

Okay, so here's where it gets real. I remember the first time I tried to get from the room to the restaurant. I had to backtrack because the entrance wasn't easily accessible, leading to a mini-meltdown. I remember my friend getting stuck in the lift… momentarily! The staff were quick to help, though, and very apologetic.

The Bathroom Phone… Seriously, who still puts a phone in the bathroom? I didn't use it, of course. But it made me wonder if I was in a time warp.

Final Verdict:

Would I stay at SureStay Plus again? Let me put it this way: if I’m near [Specific Location] and on a budget, absolutely. The accessibility, while not perfect, was better than average. The Free Wi-Fi saved my sanity, the pool was lovely, and the staff, despite the occasional blip (like the bathroom phone incident), were generally friendly and helpful.

Is it a five-star experience? No. Is it perfect? Nope. But it was… an experience. And sometimes, that's all you need. Just be prepared for a little adventure – and maybe pack your own breakfast if you're feeling adventurous! Now, if you'll excuse me, I need a nap. All that… experiencing… really wore me out! I rate this a 3.5/5 Stars!

And now, if you'll excuse me, I need to go find that feather. The one that allegedly attacked me. Just kidding (mostly).

Alright, buckle up, buttercups, because we’re diving headfirst into my slightly-less-than-perfect but totally real trip itinerary for the SureStay Plus Hotel Jasper by Best Western in Jasper, Indiana. Prepare for a rollercoaster of emotions, questionable decisions, and the unvarnished truth about my travel habits.

Day 1: Arrival and the Thrill of (Mediocre) Hotel Pizza

1:00 PM: Land at Evansville Regional Airport (EVV). Ugh, the drive. It's always a gamble. Pray my GPS doesn't decide to take me on a scenic tour of cornfields. Pray.
2:30 PM: Check into the SureStay Plus. First impressions? Okay, clean enough, a bit… beige. Is beige a mood? Because I'm feeling a mild case of beige-ness already.
3:00 PM: Settle in. The real unpacking process begins: first, the panic of realizing I forgot something vital (probably socks), followed by the strategically placed piles of "essential" belongings. Oh, and the strategic placement of snacks. Priorities.
4:00 PM: Deep dive: hotel room inspection. Flush the toilet (twice!), check the shower pressure (vital), and cautiously sniff the air conditioning vent. So far, so…neutral.
5:00 PM: The hunger pangs hit. Let's be honest, after the travel, I'm starving. The hotel offers…pizza. The reviews are mixed. This is where the "messy" comes in. I'm ordering it. Pray for me. I'll be honest; I’m half expecting disappointment, but that's the beauty of travel, isn't it? Sometimes… it's not great. And that's fine.
6:00 PM - 7:00 PM: Pizza. Oh, the pizza. It wasn't great. It wasn’t terrible. It was warm, it filled the void in my stomach, and honestly, it was probably the highlight of my day so far. I ate the whole thing. No regrets.
7:30 PM: Stroll around the hotel. See if anything interesting is in the vicinity. No, but the lack of anything else to do is somehow soothing.
8:30 PM: Watch some TV. Maybe a cheesy movie. Maybe a documentary. Whatever helps me forget about the pizza.
9:30 PM: Bedtime. Attempting to sleep. Praying the AC isn't too loud and the neighbors are quiet.

Day 2: The Dubois County Museum and the Search for Authentic German Food (and Maybe a Beer)

8:00 AM: Wake up, bleary-eyed. Coffee is paramount. Immediately. The hotel coffee? I'm bracing myself.
8:30 AM: Hotel coffee attempt. Actually…not bad. Surprising. Maybe this trip is turning around.
9:00 AM: Quick breakfast and shower. Checking out the local map I was provided during check-in.
10:00 AM: Head to the Dubois County Museum! I'm actually pretty excited about this. I have a weird fascination with local history. Prepare to spend an hour or two surrounded by artifacts. I'm curious if they can give a quick course on local history.
12:00 PM: Lunch time! I've heard Jasper used to be a German settlement. I am determined to find some authentic German food. Let the hunt begin - wish me luck!
1:00 PM: More food. More German restaurants.
2:00 PM: Food is found! Now, to relax and enjoy the moment.
3:00 PM: Back to the hotel. Maybe some swimming? Maybe not.
4:00 PM: Rest. Recover.
5:00 PM - 6:00 PM: More food. Dinner is ordered.
7:00 PM: The night is young. Time to relax and enjoy the hotel accommodations.
9:00 PM: Bedtime.

Day 3: Departure and the lingering scent of adventure (and maybe pizza)

8:00 AM: Wake up. Coffee. Packing. The inevitable scramble to find all my belongings.
9:00 AM: Breakfast. Hotel breakfast. Gotta get my money's worth.
10:00 AM: Quick check out.
10:30 AM: Last-minute room inspection. Anything left behind? Absolutely. Probably a rogue sock.
11:00 AM: Head out.
11:30 AM: On the road back.

And that's it! A glorious, slightly-chaotic, and hopefully memorable trip to Jasper, Indiana. SureStay Plus Hotel, you may have been beige, but you were home for a few days of adventures, pizza, and the eternal search for good coffee. Until next time, Jasper!

P.S. I will absolutely be back, mostly because I need to find that other sock. And maybe because I'm still chasing that perfect German meal. The journey continues!

Jasper's Hidden Gem: SureStay Plus - You WILL NOT Believe This Place! (Maybe) - FAQs

Is "Jasper's Hidden Gem" actually a hidden gem or just... well, a SureStay Plus?

Okay, look, let's be real. "Hidden Gem" might be a BIT of an overstatement. It's a SureStay Plus. BUT! Hear me out... It really depends on your expectations and how much you value a slightly upgraded roadside motel experience. I went in thinking "budget, functional, sleep," and I *left* thinking... "Okay, maybe *slightly* better than expected. Maybe." The location's great, though. That's a MAJOR selling point. More on that later. Don't expect the Ritz, people. But it *could* surprise you. Or not. It's a gamble.

What's the best thing about staying here? Like, the absolute BEST?

The LOCATION! For real. You're basically right in town. You can walk to the main street, grab a coffee, stuff your face with poutine (mandatory!), and be back in your room before you've even had time to regret your choices. Seriously, that saved me from a *total* meltdown after a particularly brutal hike. Just stumbling distance to civilization is invaluable. Consider it a bonus survival perk.

Okay, location is good. But what about the room? Spill the tea!

Ah, the room. Ah, the sweet embrace of... not exactly luxury. But listen, it was clean. And after a day of hiking, ALL that mattered. The bed was... a bed. It did its job. I slept. The bathroom? Functional. The shower pressure? Surprisingly decent, considering. But here's a confession: I'm a *sucker* for those little travel toiletries. And they were… well, they existed. Not luxurious. Not particularly exciting. But they *did* smell vaguely of (I think) lemon verbena. Okay, I’m probably romanticizing it. But the towels were fluffy-ish! That’s a win. They were also folded in some sort of... artful way. I suspect the cleaner has a secret life as a origami master.

Did you experience anything... unusual? Any little quirks to look out for?

Oh, you bet your boots. Let me tell you about the lock on my door. Or rather, the *lack* of a lock. No, seriously. It was one of those old-school, key-in-the-hole-and-pray-it-works situations. I spent a good five minutes jiggling and wiggling before finally figuring it out. And honestly, I spent the rest of the time worrying that the ghostly spirit of some previous guest was going to stroll in any second. I ended up pushing a chair against the door at night, you know, just for peace of mind. It wasn't exactly modern security, let's just say that. The upside? It built character. (And I am now intimately familiar with the sound of a creaking door.)

What about breakfast? Is it the usual "continental" disappointment?

Okay, look. Breakfast. It was... free. Which is the best thing you can say about many hotel breakfasts. There were the usual suspects: sad pastries, lukewarm coffee, and some questionable-looking fruit. I'd packed my own granola bars and was feeling smug. The coffee was so weak though, it barely qualified. I had to *find* a place in town for a good caffeine fix. So, yes, continental, but… let's just say it fueled me enough to get through the morning. Don't expect culinary fireworks, people. But free is free.

Would you recommend SureStay Plus Jasper's Hidden Gem (and why?)

Hmm. That's a tough one. Look, if you're on a budget and the location is your top priority... then yeah, probably. It's decent value for money, especially if you're not *super* picky. It’s a practical choice. If you’re expecting pristine luxury? Absolutely not. (Unless my "Hidden Gem" sarcasm got lost in translation.) I would say, manage your expectations. Embrace the slightly-less-than-perfect-but-okay-ness of it all. Think of it as part of the "rustic charm" of Jasper. Plus, the staff were genuinely friendly and helpful. That makes a BIG difference. So, yes, I'd recommend... *provisionally*. Like, a slightly hesitant, "Yeah, maybe. But don't say I didn't warn you."

What if you are in Jasper for just the views, after all? Is it suitable?

This is where it *really* earns its stripes. If you're planning on spending ALL your time out exploring the mountains and lakes (which, let's be honest, is what you SHOULD be doing in Jasper!), then absolutely. Your room is just a place to crash at the end of the day. The location makes it super-easy to get to the best hikes, the best viewpoints, the best everything. Who cares about fancy amenities when you have the Canadian Rockies right outside your door?! Sleep, shower, repeat. That's the motto. And for THAT purpose, it's perfect. Honestly, it’s the perfect base camp for an adventure. And trust me, the mountains are far more beautiful than any fancy hotel room. (I felt a bit guilty spending so little time in the room, to be honest!)

I heard there's often wildlife around. What do I do?

YES! Jasper is teeming with wildlife. I saw elk grazing (from a safe distance, naturally). Please, PLEASE be respectful of the animals. Keep your distance, don't feed them, and store food properly (which the hotel *probably* reminds you about - and if they don't, listen to me!). Bears are also around, so make noise when hiking, carry bear spray, and never, EVER leave food in your car. Basically, follow the park's guidelines to the letter. It's their home, we're just visiting. And the excitement of seeing wildlife is truly something else. Just... don't be the idiot who tries to take a selfie with a grizzly.

So... would you stay there again? Be honest!

Okay, fine. Yes. I probably would. Knowing what I know now. The location, the price... yeah. It won't be my *dream* vacation. But it's practical. It's functional. And that location... I'm genuinely missing it. And I’m alreadyRooms And Vibes
