The entree, chicken saltimbocca, was incredibly dry; I almost choked on the first bite of chicken. The sides, dauphinoise potatoes and green beans, were good. Thankfully, the desserts were delicious. There were jumbo lemon or double chocolate cupcakes. The lemon cake was dense, almost like pound cake, but had good flavor. The chocolate cupcakes were divine.

Spent our first night locked out of the room because the lock died and the key needed to unlock the door is kept in the managers locked office at night. Spent the second night packing our things in trash bags and driving 5 hours back home after finding bed bugs in our room. Along with this, the room was trashed. All photos below. Went back and forward with guest services and the manager only to get a partial refund and a small amount of points. We had to discard hundreds of dollars in items because they couldn't be properly handled to ensure bed bugs didn't enter our home. The manager advised that someone else came in and checked for bed bugs and didn't find any, so the room was fine. THE BED BUG WE FOUND, KILLED AND TOOK A PHOTO OF WAS LEFT ON THE COUNTER. Probably overlooked like many other things in the hotel. They aren't treating it for bed bugs even with a known case. Don't risk it.

My 20-year-old child was stranded in Peoria, IL due to a cancelled flight. I made a reservation…read morethrough the IHG website and explicitly disclosed that my child was 20 years old. The reservation was accepted as an exception. Upon arrival, the front desk agent, Justin, refused to allow my child to check in. His supervisor, Lynn, stated that Illinois law--or possibly this specific hotel's policy--does not permit a 20-year-old to check in (this was not clearly explained). Within five minutes, we were able to secure a reservation at a nearby, higher-quality hotel, where they simply required a signed waiver, which was not an issue. I would like to see better coordination between IHG and its individual hotels, as there appeared to be no alignment or communication in this case. More importantly, rather than outright refusing a stranded traveler with a confirmed reservation, some problem-solving would have been appropriate. If a waiver solution worked at a nearby hotel, it is reasonable to ask why the same approach could not have been considered here.
