Excellent hotel

Everything was nice and clean! Love the fresh fruit! Breakfast was great! Indoor Pool was nice and clean, just wish it was a little warmer. Wish they had a hot tub beside the pool. Beds were very comfortable. Overall, excellent hotel!
Julie, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We like everything about this hotel. Staff are top notch. Friendliness is superb. They treat you like a friend not just a hotel room client. We call this hotel in Pekin our home away from home. Breakfast buffet is just plain the best over most hotels.

2/10 Poor

Not much road noise but very loud folks above us. Brite LED lights around the room from a lot of sources. Room wasn’t ready for two more hours after check in time.
Gary, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

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.
Katie, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

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.
