Stoney Creek Hotel Peoria
The room was clean. It had everything I needed. The lobby stairs-specifically - were not so clean, but nothing terrible. The bar closes too early. I love the decorum of the hotel. A really cool place for families.

Four Points By Sheraton Peoria
It was great, and the staff made it better. If I would say one thing that could be better was the continental breakfast, the bagels was so hard they were not eatable.
