Easily the worst hotel I’ve ever experienced. First off the pictures on the hotels.com site are not even remotely from the site. The room smelled like a mix between cheap bleach and piss. The shower was full of mold. I was afraid to sit on the. It was noticeably not clean. There was a crack head peering in my window. Legitimately feared for my life. I stayed about 3 hours. Asked the front desk for a refund. They denied. I got out of there as fast as I could regardless.

The only saving grace to this room was the bed, which was fantastic. The bedding was clean, but stained. The bathrrom looked clean, but there was a cockroach on the toilet paper, and then in the shower stall. The window had cracks like it was about to shatter. Several outlets didnt work. We definitely got what we paid for.

I didn’t even stay. I checked in. Went to dinner and a movie then came back hoping to just get some rest and found the following upon entering the room: roaches (plural) in many spots, stray cats right outside my room meowing like crazy and fighting over food, filthy bed, including the sheets pillow and actual mattress. There were uncleaned bodily fluid stains, residue from who knows what kind of drugs, and general filth. I walked my key back to the office and drove 4 hours home at 11pm. No refunds either so that’s wonderful.

What you see is not!!! What you get. Pictures used are not what the rooms look like. Sheets and pillows were washed but stains not removed. On all three covers had stains, including the juicy booty stains on the mattress cover. If you looking for a late night rendezvous with your local fiend or your high school crush Methany this is the place for you. If you arrive alone no worries the resident lot lizard will be happy to accompany you. AY, Yo is the perfect name for this establishment.

While the rooms were very clean, and we were put in a decent location. The deadbolt didnt lock to anything no chain on door as extra precaution. But it was ok for what i needed. Just one night waiting on a baby to be born. I dont think id stay there again, due to safety concerns. But the people running it were very nice, so if you really need an affordable motel near hospital for a night. This one is ok.

Upon arrival, I was told that my reservation had been canceled even though we had called when we received the text message asking us to confirm the reservation. The room itself was extremely small and unkept. Neighborhood was very scary. Lots of people hanging out in the parking lot doing things they probably shouldn’t be.

Cheap place to stay but it was loud and “patchy.” They need to completely renovate the property not just throw patches on the walls and slap a thin layer of paint on stuff. All of the chairs and couches had dirty butt prints in the fabric. Didn’t see any roaches but came home and threw all my stuff in the washing machine to make sure I didn’t bring anything home.

Had I wanted to stay in a homeless shelter I wouldn’t have tried staying at a hotel. Also now I know where to find a prostitute in Peoria, IL. As I was trying to check in, a woman started a crazy ruse about being locked out of her room by a supposed partner and then she asked if I could give her a ride. I decided at that time I wasn’t going to stay. The desk clerk, an older Caucasian man with blonde hair, told me my reservation was canceled and I wouldn’t get charged. Then I was charged! This hotel Is not for tourists or for business travelers. It is for homeless people and those looking to hook-up. This place should be advertised as a brothel and flop house and not as a respectable hotel.

I canceled and they still charged me the full price even though they didn’t have anything ready. Do NOT STAY here. should be ashamed that they even have them on there site. Total waste of time and money!!!!!!!!

I strongly advise against staying at this hotel, as it is entirely unsuitable for travelers, particularly families with children. The property is in a deplorable state of disrepair, with broken windows that pose a safety hazard and cigarette stains on the drapes that contribute to an unclean and unpleasant environment. The sidewalks, gates, and doors are crumbling, making navigation around the premises unsafe and uninviting. Moreover, the clientele frequenting the hotel raises serious concerns about security. The overall atmosphere feels unsettling, and the lack of maintenance suggests a complete disregard for guest comfort and safety. I would not recommend this establishment to anyone seeking a secure and pleasant lodging experience. Save your money and look elsewhere.

We didn't even stay. I pulled in the parking lot and called around to find another hotel. I was scared to death. People staring at my mom and I while sitting in my car. I'm guessing it was the people that live there. I guess the only way for them to make any money is to not give refunds. Expedia should be ashamed to have this listed on their app.

There are a lot of questionable characters that stay at this hotel. It is in a bad area where there’s a lot of drugs and prostitution.. but OSF Saint Francis Hospital is literally across the street. There are some fast food restaurants nearby.. I just went there to sleep and shower while I was in town working
