The staff was accommodating and friendly. Unfortunately the hotel has not been updated. The rooms were musty smelling to the point my clothes/bags smelled after I checked out. The carpet had stains and had not been cleaned in a long time. There were people grilling, drinking and playing loud music in the parking lot well into the late night. I have stayed at this location a few times over the years but will not in the future due to the current status of hotel. I did not feel safe as a single person traveling alone.

A bit leary at first because of the inconsistent reviews (and when I pulled in there was a mattress in the dumpster area), but my room was clean, well laid out, and comfortable—although the furniture/decor could use updating.Mary at the front desk was friendly, gave good directions and recommendations, and overall helpful. This Best Western allows cats, and mine definitely enjoyed his adventure, and I enjoyed being able to bring him along. Splashing around in the pool revived me after long Hades hot and humid days at the Illinois State Fair. It was quiet even though the hotel seemed to be close to full, and the location is right off the highway convenient, and only a ten/fifteen minute drive if that from downtown. There were a few things: sliding doors would eliminate the struggle with the luggage cart. The breakfast hours could (and should) be extended beyond 8:30(!). The sink in my room drained verrrry slowly. The tub faucet and the toilet both wiggled a lot. Overall, an enjoyable stay, and I will put it at the top of my list next time I visit Springfield.

Enjoyable stay.

Stayed 1 night for the state fair concert. The location was great, right off the freeway, quick drive to the fairgrounds. The beds were comfortable, the breakfast is only 6:30am-8:30am which is not a lot of time so we didn’t get to partake in that. The staff was friendly and helpful. The building you can tell is on the older side but was just what we needed for a single night stay.
