They did a great job carving a hotel out of a historic building. My favorite part of this hotel is the fun bar in the basement. My second favorite thing is the coffee shop on the ground floor. It is so nice not to have to drive for a nightcap or your morning cup of joe. Cornerstone is an exciting part of the rebirth of downtown Washington. It's way more fun to stay here than some corporate motel!! PS. Wife wanted fluffier pillows.

There was a false fire alarm while I was there, wasn't her fault, probably not anyone's fault, but she did a good job of getting it resolved as quickly as she could. I thought the bed was very comfortable and the room was quiet, I like that they provide pillows with a variety of firmness, I was able to sleep well. The bathroom was clean, I really like the JR Watkins toiletries provided--that's a brand I use at home because they are high quality and and cruelty free. Only real downside was the lighting, it was rather dim overall and especially in the bathroom, which makes doing your makeup a little challenging. As others have mentioned, there's no mini-fridge, this was not a big deal for me as I was only staying one night. There are several fast food places nearby, including an Arby's and Cracker Barrel which practically share a parking lot, and a Dunkin' across the street--handy if you want to grab a coffee before you hit the road. There are other dining choices in Morton, although not as many options as you'd find if you stayed in Peoria. There are also gas stations, a Kroeger, and a Walmart close by, so if you need to pick up any essentials or fuel up, that's really easy to access. The location is very convenient, easy to get on and off of I74. Overall, this was a really nice stay, I would recommend it and would stay here again.

The lobby entrance was warm and inviting, smelled nice, had snacks and drinks alcoholic and non for sale. Staff was friendly and helpful.

Kids played a mini baseball game in the large open grass area. Beds were comfortable...room did have a little funky smell when we first arrived but that went away once we got the AC going. Breakfast was good...wide variety of food....only thing that could have been better was the juice...orange and apple juice tasted watered down. Otherwise a very pleasant stay.

A lot of cleaner type services were covered with the allergy label- filtered shower water, hepa air purifier, non scented sheets, no pets allowed (huge one for me!)... I was so thankful. Our room was great! It was spacious and they upgraded us to a view of the river / lit up bridge that my kids loved! There was reception with two free drinks and snacks, they seemed to be low on the chips next to the salsa. There wasn't a lot of allergy friendly food, but I was able to get a drink! We had great service when we forgot a few things late at night and they were very prompt and helpful. The lobby is absolutely beautiful and a fantastic place to catch up with family or play a game. There is sooo much mingle room. The fountains were a little dirty and everything in general seemed to need a tune up. At one point the elevator door wasn't working but it was promptly fixed. The bed in our room was comfy, though th allergy liner kept coming loose. The workout room was pretty nice with towels and a great variety of different machines and free weights. Definitely above par from your normal moderate hotel. My two main concerns were breakfast and shower soaps. As someone with allergies and skin issues I usually bring all my own items for shower, but occasionally my husband will use the on the wall soaps... the allergy friendly room was marketed as no harsh smells, but that definitely wasn't true for the soaps on the wall! Holy cow, it was pungent, and even when hubs walked around after it was wafting off him and permeating the bathroom. It was super disappointing and for someone with breathing issues; it was overpowering. Second... i called ahead of our trip to talk to the person that runs breakfast or to have an allergy menu sent and was told they don't have one and that I would be fine and there were lots of options... When we stayed with Drury they had an allergy menu online and a QR code posted by the food. For a hotel marketing to allergen folks, to not have an allergen menu available is insane. When my very hungry 15m old came down to breakfast with me we had to ask someone restocking the buffet about safe food and she told us to stand in the 5-7 person line to ask about food... so holding my impatient and hungry baby, we waited for the man to cook 5-7 omelettes, waffles, etc. we got up to the front and explained our situation (dairy, peanut, soy, almond allergies... anaphylactic ones) and he was listing off various things we couldn't have and seemed completely out of touch with how serious this was. Wouldn't want you to try that... that cough have peanuts... I could make you an omelette in this pan after I clean it out (as there is actively cheese being dumped into it). No. Way. He don't consult labels at all, didn't reference any supporting information, just seemed to be going from memory. Completely unacceptable. Grabbed some Cheerios, fruit and bacon (he said it was safe) for baby and ate somewhere else. She reacted to the bacon from cross contamination. My baby has a rash on her face is going to be up all night screaming from pain. Before this incident I was thankful and excited for a hotel taking allergies seriously...

I stayed here in 2017 and I recently just stayed here again. Sadly, this location was not as great…read moreas I recall The location of the hotel is still amazing. It's next to the river so you have a quick access to many places. The area itself is growing and there are a lot of places to eat within a few miles. Also, there is a Tesla charger very close nearby. The parking has improved. When I initially stayed in 2017, it was hard due to construction. However, the construction of the parking has improved and there are a lot of spaces. However, that space is to the convention center which is attached to the main hotel, and a lot in the back. The main front parking is small and it fills up very quickly. I don't know if people who are not hotel stayers are parking here or not. Our room felt very old. There were a lot of stains on the floor, and the couches felt old and semi broken. Happy hour was okay. Last time, they used the breakfast area to serve happy hour snacks but this time...it was a small table. It was a little sad. Overall, I am a fan of Embassy suites. Although this location isn't terrible.... it wasn't amazing as I recall. In the end, I might try a different hotel next time but I would return in hopes that they improve the hotel too.
