Holiday Inn Peoria At Grand Prairie by IHG
Very clean, nice location, super quiet! The price doubles next week when we are back for another tournament, but it's too expensive to stay again, sadly.

Motel 6 Peoria, IL
The headboards of both beds had handprints on them and just dirty. The hot water took 10-15 minutes to get warm and really never did get hot. Had the room lose power for about 5 minutes due to too high a voltage according to the desk clerk.
