Aloft South Bend
Staff was great. Room was huge and clean. Parking was easy and covered in the snow. Walking to restaurants like the Fatbird and Fiddler’s Heath easy!

Courtyard by Marriott South Bend Downtown
It was easy to navigate. Was on the pricier side due to the ND game. Would return. Only suggestion is change the bathrooms. The one glass door concept isn’t pleasing and tends to flood the bathroom. Also the rusty soap tray wasn’t necessary in the shower.
