What guests think

At Americas Best Value Inn East Peoria, travelers note clean, updated budget rooms and friendly staff, balanced by mixed cleanliness in common areas, limited breakfast, noise from thin walls or trains, and a convenient location near shops and restaurants.

There is no elevator, parking is generally adequate and well lit but some guests reported loitering and a break-in, and the property is pet friendly. Rooms are small and simple with hard flooring and basic storage; many found beds comfortable, though pillows, AC noise, and Wi-Fi reliability were mixed. Service is often praised as friendly and helpful, but there are occasional complaints about rudeness, reservation handling, or responsiveness. Expect a no-frills, budget stay focused on value and location rather than amenities.

very budget appropriate/friendly for me- light breakfast offered- great staff ( manager Gil, attendant Sam and the rest of the crew ) ; very close to a lot of stores, like food chain, grocery, and a gasoline station , (-) 10 minutes away from Bradley University , walk in shower , only 2 floors ( no elevator ) - every time we visited Peoria for the past 4 years -> we have stayed here and enjoyed every time during our stay.

The people working there are great they are very nice and it was clean . The parking lot is not secure there's no cameras in the parking lot my car was broken into this morning at 4:00. They act like it was no big deal they could have cameras in the parking lot on both sides. They also know that homeless people live out there in the dumpsters and hang out by there and they do nothing about it. So if you want your stuff stolen stay there but I wish they would try to do something about the homeless problem they have hanging out in their lot breaking into people's stuff.

I stay at a lot of pet friendly, less expensive hotels. This Best Value Inn is one of the cleanest I've ever stayed in. Room climate responded to adjustments (yay). Staff was friendly and helpful. Skip the lobby breakfast. Very easy on/off interstate.

America's Best Value Inn was in a decent area and easy to get to with a clean exterior. The front desk person was nice and helpful. The lobby was also bright and clean. However, the room was not the best, even for the price. It was fairly clean but had stained furniture. The room itself wasn't terrible, but the whole place had a thick smoke/weed smell, even though its allegedly a "smoke free" hotel. It unfortunately made me nauseous very quickly, and I had to stay somewhere else. I checked out shortly after checking in. I also had a pet with me and didn't want to risk staying there with him. If you're okay with that kind of smell, this place is probably a good deal and fit for you. I personally wasn't going to be able to stay there the couple nights I booked.

My daughter and I found long, dark hairs on our pillows and sheets. They did not look like they had been changed. The bathroom was worse. The shower drain was covered in black hair and there was dirt and hair in the shower. the toilet pedestal had hair stuck on it and dirt around the base. The dresser had thick dust on the top. We left and did not stay the night.

Location was great. Front desk staff were fine. The room appeared clean, but I took a shower and walked out to get dressed and the soles of my feet were filthy, I mean REALLY dirty. The gap around the hallway door was very large, all way around, and the security latch was missing. I discovered that many of the hotel guests are using this facility as long term housing. This fact did not bother me, however, the lack of sufficient cleanliness was very discouraging.

BED BUGS. The bed protectors didn't zip closed. Mattresses pulled away from the wall. Me and my friends have several bed bug bites. Drawing on the lamp shades. Holes in the wall. Wasn't aware of the security deposit. But that's my fault for not reading everything on the website. Was cut a deal for not knowing. I asked for a refund for the bed bugs and was told I had to wait for the manager to come in. Never received any sort of contact or refund. I paid 86 dollars to sleep with bugs.

The place was exactly what we expected. The lobby was spotless. The hallways were outdated. BUT…our room was wonderful. The bathroom was clean and updated. The flooring was all new. The beds were very comfortable. Most importantly the AC worked like a champ on the first hot weekend of the summer. I only marked less than 5 stars based on room for improvement in common areas. Would definitely stay here again and recommend it if just needing a clean, simple room.

We went for a tournament at the civic center. My younger son and I spent the night. The Good-Close to the civic center, next to gas station and food, clean, fair priced, had micro and fridge, staff was onsite and available. The Not-So-Good - The walls are a little thin so you hear more than you want to from the halls and neighboring rooms and the room door had about a 2" gap from door to floor (bigger than normal). The Not-So-Good can be overlooked for the price, quality of hotel, and cleanliness. I would stay here again.

I've stayed here several times as a traveler and most of the time it's been ok. However, this most recent time they cancelled my ENTIRE reservation because they wouldn't answer the phone when I tried to call and let them know I would be arriving the next morning. So, after working a 12 hour night shift, I had to find a new hotel and hope they would allow me to check in early and put out another $300.00. The guy at the desk didn't seem even the slightest remorseful. Now, I can't even get ahold of them to approve my refund, which has been unsuccessful in the past.

Very sketchy location, very sketchy people hanging around. we only stayed here for a quick night away to go clubbing, the ratings online are much nicer than they should be. it felt like a very dirty prison. our room had tissues stuck in the peep hole as well as a ton of big crumbs all over the floor. on the way back to the motel from the bars, our uber driver said “i don’t think you guys know where you’re staying”. sadly, we did. and we regret it. for how pricey this room actually was, we should have just spent a little more for a nice hotel across the river. would have been WELL worth it.
