Perfect hotel for our overnight stay. We were in town for a concert in Peoria and we found this hotel for a great price only 20 minutes away. The bed was super comfy and the air worked great. The bathroom had a great selection of dove products to be used. The breakfast was great. I had an egg and cheese omelet and a piece of sausage and my husband had biscuits and gravy. We will definitely stay there again if we ever go back that way.

The room was clean and updated including bathroom area. The provided toiletries were Dove including body lotion and liquid hand soap which is nice so you don’t have to wash your hands with one of the little bars of soap and get the counter all slimy. The biggest issue was the channel selection on the television. There were minimal channels and the TVs, two of them which were nice size, wouldn’t hook up to WiFi to cast from your phone. The WiFi was weak and jammed up as well.
