Stoney Creek Hotel Peoria
Great social staff! Needed to add a night and they were super accommodative to allow us to keep the same room for the next night even though it was two different bookings! Liked the separate space away from main lobby for our group to visit.

The elevator was not working but they were able to get us a first floor room. My husband has a heart condition and cannot do stairs. Juan, the evening front desk, was very nice and friendly. Breakfast was fresh and good with a variety of foods.
