Monthly Rentals in El Paso

My husband & I needed a room for one night near Bloomington/Normal, where hotels/air bnbs are pricey. We were happy to find this safe space just 25 minutes from town. The neighborhood is quiet & quaint, where we saw several folks riding around in golf carts, waving happily as you pass by. Some local kids had a lemonade stand. It felt like the 90s in the best way. The separate entrance is a nice touch, along w/ a keypad for easy entrance. Parking was on the street but with low traffic, I had no concerns. I loved having a king bed, extra pillows & towels, mini fridge, room key, & huge bathroom - everything was very clean. Despite this being upstairs in an older home w/ the charm of squeaky floors, we never heard our hosts, but the room was fairly warm (summertime). We used the ceiling fan & box fan so we didn’t need to ask about the available a/c unit mentioned in the room’s booklet. Communication was always quick & kind. The coffee house around the corner was awesome. Great stay!

We get a kick out of staying upstairs in former commercial buildings that overlook the main streets in small towns. That’s exactly what this property offers. There are great views through huge windows down onto the street and the parkway beyond. This location has a new bathroom and rich colors and decorations combined with original doors and mouldings that, due to their vintage, have a “distressed wood” quality. An eclectic mix of the old and new. Note, the ceilings are very high so there is a bit of a climb to the second floor from the street.

GREATLY enjoyed my stay here! The loft is well-appointed and comfortable. The theming is great. The courtyard and hot tub are divine. Being directly upstairs from a coffee shop/cafe that serves breakfast until 11 daily? And waking to the smell of fresh-brewed coffee each morning? SO great! Antique shops in town are worth the visit. The Project XV Museum promises to be amazing but is not open/finished yet. There are many bookstores within a short drive. Just a gem of a getaway option.

It’s a great place for a couple, but less ideal for more than two because it’s an open floor plan. (We were three adults attending a large family reunion.) Nevertheless a great prairie countryside retreat, Eureka is a charming small college town, and the owner was accessible and responded quickly to all our questions.
