When we arrived, two of the four handicap parking spaces were blocked off for equipment to be stored there. But there were still three available parking spots for the Elite stay members. This is unacceptable. The only spot available was so close to the curb, I couldn’t fit my daughter’s wheelchair next to the car for her to get out. This, too, is unacceptable and speaks to how little Holiday Inn values disabled persons. We checked in later in the evening, so it wasn’t until the morning that I realized how dirty the room was. The shower wasn’t clean. We found several hairs in the bed that did not belong to us. It makes me worried that the sheets weren’t even changed before our arrival. The floor had not been vacuumed. At breakfast, a dad with three small children sat next to us. His son spilled a cup of juice and the dad got paper towels and cleaned up what he could. He then left and came back with a mop to clean the floor. I don't understand why a staff member did not come to do that and it was left to this man, with his small children and who had played to stay there. It was a really disappointing stay, and I will not plan to stay here again. I would like a refund, as I don’t believe it was worth what I payed.

Pool misleading

Our experience overall was great, however I was very disappointed in the indoor pool. The picture, in the website, if the pool is not what the pool at the hotel looked like at all. There was also a hot tub, in the picture, in the website. There was not a hot tub at this location. The pool water was freezing and green.

They charged me $300 for the security deposit rather than the standard $75. Then didn’t release the hold on the deposit so I had to call, the gentleman apologized & said it was a mistake on their part & released the hold. Well then I was refunded $75. Not the $300 I paid. I called to ask & the manager said oh no we don’t do that. I said well apparently you do bc that’s what happened. She had 0 clue what she was talking about, & didn’t even attempt to look into it or help me, kept interrupting & speaking over me. Then another woman gets on the phone & tells me it’s because of my dog. Well the property is not pet friendly, my dog is a registered & verified service dog and they were aware of her when I checked in, even showed documentation which I am not obligated to do. Then she tried to tell me that my dog is not a service dog, then hung up on me, as did the manager. The unprofessionalism and overall incompetence is appalling, to say the least. Especially for what is supposed to be a renowned & prestigious hotel. Not only all of this horrendous behavior, but also in the room I stayed in it looked like someone pooped in the shower & stomped it down the drain. When I say I almost vomited, it was REPULSIVE. I went & bought bleach and poured a gallon of it down the drain. I couldn’t eat the rest of the night I was so sickened. This is what $600 for 2 nights will get you here folks. 0/10 do not recommend to anyone ever. Unless maybe they get new management.

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.
