Rooms range from spacious suites with comfy beds and balconies to dated furnishings, thin walls, and occasional maintenance issues. Expect friendly service with variable upkeep and amenities.

Overnight stay for work. I was surprised by the clean & modern design of the hotel for the location. Great basic gym in the hotel. Skeleton staff representation would be my only negative feedback.

Front desk representatives were fantastic. The only thing that bothered us was that the pool was dirty and cloudy, so we didn’t swim. Otherwise it was a clean hotel. Another minor thing was that they charged $3 to park.

I booked this hotel because we wanted a pool and it was out of order. They offered the pool next door but it was so cloudy and hazy that my 9yo wouldnt even go in. There was also cannabis use in there.

Pool was closed. Bistro/Breakfast did not have numerous selections available. Ice machine on 1st floor out of order. Room was clean, but furnishings are in need of updating; or have maintenance go through rooms & touch-up. Rating & reviews on Expedia were very good, so this was not what we expected.

My family and I came into town for Thanksgiving, and I cannot complain about our stay here. The managerial staff were very sweet, attentive, and super friendly anytime that we needed anything. It’s super quiet, and the hot tub y’all!!!! OMG!!! AMAZING!!!! We didn’t get a chance to go to the bistro bar there, but we will definitely stay here again when visiting Peoria.

This was my second time staying at the hotel. My first stay was fine. The last stay was not good at all. Checking in, I had to wait at least 5 minutes for someone to show up. I went back later in the day to ask a question and left after 5 minutes due to no one being there. Entering the room, I noticed a musty/wet dog kind of smell. The room did not look clean, the furniture looked beaten up. The bathroom was terrible. There was black mold on the floor and in the shower. The toilet did not look cleaned and was running nonstop. I will definitely not be returning.

The room felt very rundown. Stains on the lamp shades, shower curtain, floors, walls. The shower has mold in it and the wallpaper was peeling. The bedding appeared clean and the bathroom was clean other than the mold in the shower and stains on the curtain. The staff was friendly, but we would not stay here again.

The property is showing its age. Furniture was all scratched and our smoke detector was in working condition, but hanging out from the ceiling. Also, for the cost of the room, it would have been nice to have at least free coffee in the lobby! The Bistro was very expensive, so we went to Dunkin Donuts! Good things about the property: It was clean, safe, convenient, friendly staff, and the water pressure in the shower was wonderful!

We dealt with 4 different staff members during our 2 night stay and we were always treated very well. We had an issue with our heat in our room the 2nd night and we were able to be moved to another room. The staff member on duty that night and the one on duty when we checked out were both very apologetic about the situation.

It was a very sketchy location surrounded by some other run down hotels and an abandoned mall. I looked outside a window and saw a man peeing in the trees who was from the hotel next door. There was no breakfast in the morning as I expected there to be at 8 am when we checked. The rooms were "ok" in cleanliness. I would not stay here again.

This hotel is hard to find, and I arrived late and frustrated after driving in circles to find it. The staff soon had me in a much better mood. The front desk clerk explained how new highway construction had obscured the entrance and that I wasn’t the only one who had struggled to find it. The waitress in the restaurant, also the chef, made me a delicious burger for dinner. She also prepared me a yogurt parfait to keep in my in-room refrigerator, since I would be checking out very early the next day. The staff made the difference in my stay.

The pool was not in order which was disappointing. The hotel was in a mall parking lot and it was hard to find. The area around it and other hotels just didn’t seem great. The rooms were clean and the staff were courteous. They put our whole group together without us asking which was nice. I might go there again.

My GPS took me to a mall parking lot & told me I arrived. I rode around the mall & saw no signs for a Courtyard by Marriott. I had to call the hotel to get directions. When explained & told about a wooden sign showing directions & what street the hotel is actually on. It’s not what is listed. While checking in I was told how great the Bistro is & they provide great food & drinks. Once settled I went to the Bistro. No food available grill & fryers not working. Also no Vodka or Whiskey available plus they had 4 beers available. I should have bought all 4 & did buy 3 someone else bought the other one. I watch so many people come up & ask for drinks or food that wasn’t available. The bartender kept pushing Margaritas because that’s all he had the ingredients to make. Very disappointed after the big sell @ check in. By the time I found this out it was to late to go elsewhere. So I had 3 Budweiser & nothing to eat.

The hotel was clean and quiet, the staff polite, but there was nothing to be excited about. The cleaning service entered my room despite the Do Not Disturb sign displayed. At the lobby, there was a coffee station, but the coffee was cold, and no creamer or sugar was available( only sweeteners). They DO NOT SERVE BREAKFAST- but Expedia charged me $ 29 extra for it. Beware! Do not pay it. There are multiple fast food chains in the area, so getting food is not a problem.
