8.0 Very good
Good location.
A
6.0 Okay
Pros:Price
Cons:I didn't like the fact that I may habe left something in my room and I contacted them 2 days ago and not a word from them.
A
3.7 Poor
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Cons:Very outdated, including minor mold in the grout in the shower.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 had just arrived and everything else was closed).
A
6.2 Okay
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.
A
9.1 Wonderful
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.
A
10.0 Wonderful
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 minutes, or Battlefield Mall in 10 minutes.....and Bass Pro is 5 minutes away! Can also walk to downtown (half mile walk, but flat nice sidewalks) restaurants too....and thats our style. Thanks guys!
A
10.0 Wonderful
Pros:Great environment and wonderful atmosphere with excellent service.
Cons:I would highly recommend to anyone on business or just a get-away experience.
K
6.8 Okay
Pros:Great complimentary breakfast. Nice good size room.
Cons:Mattress was too firm.
J
8.2 Very good
Pros:Everything was great except the pool was closed
A
2.0 Poor
Cons:When we tried to check in the front desk informed us that there were not any rooms available, even though I had already paid for one. We had to wait for a cab to take us to the "sister" hotel, a marriott near the airport which was 15 minutes away! Not happy!
