Pyramid State Recreation Area Tours

The property was in pretty good condition. I stayed in the king suite, which would usually imply everything in that specific room would at least be up to par. However, the thermostat and the TV were outdated. Moreover, the thermostat was faulty and I couldn't control the temperature of the room, and although the TV had cable, one on expect in '26 to have a smart TV/streaming app functionality. Oh, and the hotel desperately needs to figure out a better parking flow of traffic situation, as well. Nevertheless, it was a good environment and decent lodging. I'd put it in the B tier.

The hotel was great, and the location felt safe. It was right across the street from the police station. The breakfast was also better than we were expecting.

Disappointed. Stayed on a road trip from Texas to Illinois. Pool played a big part in choosing the property but was unavailable during our one night stay because they were working on the roof. Would have been nice if they offered a discounted rate because of that. Breakfast was not “English style”, just a buffet. Bathroom in room was smelly. The adjacent bar/restaurant and tavern in the hotel were enjoyable.
