Econo Lodge Inn & Suites Pekin - Peoria Area | Book like an insider

What guests think

Across recent reviews of Econo Lodge Inn & Suites Pekin - Peoria Area, guests often praise friendly front-desk staff but also report recurring cleanliness problems—odors, stains, pests—and maintenance lapses that make rooms and hallways feel dated and poorly kept.

Facilities show significant wear, with inconsistent pool conditions or closures, limited accessibility such as no elevator, and various equipment or plumbing problems. Breakfast is basic with limited selection and several quality complaints, though some guests appreciated the waffle maker. The location is considered convenient by a few, while multiple reviews describe late-night disturbances and uneven quiet from one night to the next. Expect a budget stay with friendly staff but notable trade-offs in upkeep and amenities.

The fee was low but we needed a one-night stay in town prior to a move. I got the impression there were long-term residents. It was loud and there was an odd smell in the halls. The pool water was clean but the powdered chemicals made it feel like there was sand in the pool. The bed was hard yet soft, as if wood was being used to hold the mattress instead of a box spring.

It was centralized hub of the area. Poor service we arrived with blood on one of the top cover, 2nd night we woke to pouring water suite above left water running and it came through the light into our bathroom. Hotel gave us a new room but it was 12:30 at night they didn’t bother to help with the move and we had 2 little ones in pack n plays we needed to move plus our stuff. They didn’t offer us any compensation for the inconvenience. The indoor pool had sand in it. So wouldn’t refer this place to anyone.

First night was a disaster!!! There were a large group of Hispanics on the 2 nd floor cooking in their room. The smoke set off the fire alarms disrupting my sleep. 3 hours later I was awakened by a guest tearing up his room, which I was told by management that the guest was " hallucinating". Police had to be called to remove him. Got very little sleep after traveling all day. Plumbing was also an issue as the bathroom sink leaked & the toilet ran intermittently.

Stayed here a few different times. It's a bit run down these days. Room refrigerator rattled all night and the TV remote needed batteries but had the TV on the second night. The staff was polite but not always handy. Didn't see anyone when I checked out at 7 AM

I realized for the price this was not going to be 5 stars but there were roaches in the room. I didn't realize it until the morning when I went to move my bag off the floor of the bathroom (which smelled like urine) and a roach ran out. Also, the $100 deposit is outrageous it is more than I paid for the room. The people who worked there are nice but really need to update and get it fumigated.

When we arrived, another guest was arguing with staff over conditions of their room. I had booked in advance and the hotel took the money out of my account before I arrived, not at arrival. Furthermore, we had one person less than when we booked, and they refused to adjust the price. Later, my sister found a bed bug crawling on her pillow. They offered no adjustment or refund, however they did allow us to switch rooms. My sister slept in a chair for fear of getting in bed. I don't blame her. We did receive our deposit in full the next morning but will never stay at this hotel again. Stay at your own risk. Or join the non stop party in room120 apparently.

If I could give zero stars I would. The hotel and grounds are not worth the money. I rather sleep in my car. Rooms are in need of a full renovation…carpet was terrible, nasty; bathroom smelled like urine, outlet didn’t work, bed sheets and bed were horrible, walls are filthy. Staff was great but I won’t be back. Ever.

After 11pm, dogs barking, people fighting and yelling. Felt like I was back to living in a substandard apartment. The men also rooming there were highly inappropriate, i did not sleep out of fear. While I understand anyone can pay for a room, i was scared from 11pm until they quieted around 4am, the people above me were awful. Also? The 2% Milk in the fridge was bad - another issues on top of no sleep I did not need before a 10 hour festival shift and 3hr drive home.

Continental breakfast was terrible! Frozen bagels, stale cereal, no juice, no hot water for tea. No one made bed or changed towels yet someone came in our room while we were out and stole 2 pair of Jeans, one pair of slacks and one pair of shorts. All of which were my husbands. We didn’t notice till we left the hotel and were in another state. We called them about missing items but their cameras only record for 24 hrs so no luck. If you stay there make sure you lock your suitcases or at the very least check your items everyday to make sure nothing is missing.

Room booked for king suite, which I got, however when my children arrived they gave them a room with 1 bed, there were 4 people, since i had a suite, i offered to trade my kids rooms, they told us NO. We traded anyway. From that moment on, the staff on duty were very rude, resulting in them the next morning shutting my door key off. Manager, Peter. VERY rude on checkput. Would not drop my rate feom king suite tp the single queen room, stating myself and my family were lying abput what we booked through expedia and we even showed our expedia confirmation e-mails and receipts. We were just money to this hotel, My family and I will NEVER return
