Foster Inn Monticello

The Foster Inn is a quaint 12 room 1950 style motel. My room was very clean, quiet, and the owners are friendly. The bed was great and I slept like a rock. The room amenities were a small refrigerator/freezer, microwave, shampoo, soaps, hairdryer, everything other motels have. It is very simple, comfortable, and clean at a very reasonable rate.

Quite utilitarian and clean. Very basic but better than most for the price.

The location was good, helpful people and quiet location.

Not enough room coffee, Bed was small and too soft. Asked for queen, but got two doubles.

Very clean and well kept up and not a trace of that old smoke smell which seems to plaque nearly all the other facilities which I have stayed in recently. A little off the path, but quaint. First time I have been given a real metal room key , instead of a computer card,,in a long time. And I liked it.-FBP

Adjacent property rundown. Plus looks like construction storage area.

Our stay went very well. We were in town to visit our son at U of I. The hotel was like 20-25 mins away from the university which was ok with us. Room was very clean and neat. Friendly service. The hotel was also located in a nice quiet area as well. Would stay again.

I really like the owners. They are always nice and friendly.

Despite the place looking dilapidated, the room was surprisingly clean and had shampoo, hair dryer, fridge, microwave, and complimentary coffee. Much better than the Motel 6 in Springfield IL that was noisy and didn't provide shampoo or hair dryer. We liked Foster Inn so much, we chose to stay an extra night.

Nice location and friendly owners
