Nothing fancy
If you want a luxurious hotel, don’t go here. If you want a clean room with a hot shower that won’t break the bank, then this is the place. Older ma and pop that’s close to the interstate. In room coffee. Didn’t check the Wi-Fi cause I use my hot spot. Tv was good.

Highly recommended
Easy check-in, clean room. The lamp by the door didn’t work but there were other lights. Monticello is a nice small town. There is a beautiful park right across the street from the motel.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
There was no service except to put new towels in the bath and take the others. No changing of the sheets. There was no ice at the location. The air conditioner worked well but the room was dark and the water in the shower/bath was brownish.

All was well. The only thing is the bath soap was the size of a quarter and the beds were never made the four days we were there. Cool comfortable room.

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.

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

Very nice hotel.
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.

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.
