Holiday Inn Hotel & Suites East Peoria by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Convenient location and attached to a very good Italian steakhouse with a nice bar"

Feel at home in the Cacti Casita

10/10 Excellent

"Nice place - as advertised."

The LUXE Of Peoria! 6000sqf! Unbelievable pool!

8/10 Good

"We loved the pool, however upon arrival pool was dirty and did not feel heated, The host came right over and the temp reader was broke, it did get fixed within an hour. Each day the pool pump wasn't running, but he came over to look at. We had trouble getting the grill to light which he addressed, but we did not feel comfortable grilling on it as very gross, we grilled on foil as we already had our food bought. We were a little disappointed felt the property did not match the price or the listing description. The home was poorly maintained. Two bedrooms had no blinds, which made it bright and uncomfortable to sleep in and offered little privacy. Small issues like, icemaker on refrigerator didn't work , and general upkeep added to the frustration. The pictures didn't match, no game machine or darts in basement. Outside chair cushion laying on ground, looked like it had been there for a while. I think some type of manual on how to use things would be helpful. I think a leaf blower would be nice to have. We didn't use the patio furniture up under shade as felt dirty and not kept clean. Overall, this felt like a 3-star experience at best and definitely not worth the premium price we paid."

A luxury and modern estate. Free airport transfer with Tesla Model X!

10/10 Excellent
