Guests say
Guests appreciated the great location of the hotel, especially its proximity to local activities and events. Many praised the friendly and attentive staff, particularly during challenging times like COVID. However, the hotel faced significant criticism for cleanliness issues, with multiple guests reporting black mold and unclean rooms. Additionally, several patrons felt that the value for the price was lacking, noting high charges for amenities like breakfast and outdated facilities.

Pros (+) Beds were comfortable and good location.
Cons (-) Very outdated, including minor mold in the grout in the shower. Management is not great. They supposedly have a 24 hour grab-and-go snack area, but the food manager decided to "close it early" because of low traffic. I get you don't want to pay someone to sit there, so why not have the front desk (literally right next to it) cover it? Frustrating when you have a very hungry 8 year old at 10 pm (we...

Pros (+) Check in was easy and staff was friendly. Great location. Nice lobby. Bed was comfy.
Cons (-) We've stayed here before with good success. This time, not so much. There was a leak in the room next door, so they were working on vacuuming the water. Our air conditioner didn't work.

Pros (+) Nice lobby area. Employees are friendly. Bed is really comfortable. Close to where I wanted to go. Good price.
Cons (-) Non-smoking room had been smoked in by previous guests and housekeeping attempted to disguise smoke smell with air freshener. Bleh.This happens at all hotels so no big deal. I could have asked to switch rooms but didn't bother.

Pros (+) At only $20 more then our traditional budget hotel stay this is quite a value! Spotless bathrooms, quiet and elegant feel throughout, super professional staff. We will be staying here again. Oh, and I love the central location.....close enough to the hustle and bustle of the south side of Springfield, but far enough away to enjoy the laid back pace of the north side. Can get to the zoo in 10 minut...
