We were driving 8 hours to Springfield after a 12 hour work day. I knew we wouldn’t be arriving until late, so I called the hotel to give them a heads up that we would still be coming and asked them to please not give away the king bed room we reserved. The kind woman on the phone said it would be no problem and she would make note in my account for the next person coming in. When we arrived at 2:42am to check-in, the young man at the front desk said we could not check in. He said “the system already reset for the night” and there was nothing he could do to help us until it rebooted the next morning. I asked him what his suggestion for us was, as we only had 4 hours at this point to get some sleep before an 8am meeting. He suggested we wait in the lobby until morning or find another hotel. So that’s exactly what we did - found (and had to pay) for another hotel down the street. I asked if I could atleast be refunded and he also claimed he was unable to do that due to the computer shut down. I have loyally been staying at university plaza for years. My parents got married there. After this experience, and the lack of help or compassion I received from the young gentleman working, I am not sure I’ll be going back. He could have called and asked our ETA. He could have gone ahead and activated room keys knowing we were still coming (since I called and gave a heads up). Instead he said “there was nothing he could do for us”. Very disappointing.

The staff was great! The room and the hotel are dated and had some issues. For example, there were significant water stains by the window and mold on the ceiling in the bathroom. Also, we had to have maintenance come tell us to run the hot water for a long time to get it to warm up. The water got hot after running the hot water for 5 minutes, but it was an odd experience. University Plaza is in a great location and there is lots to do around the area.

the ac/vents did not work, so the room was very warm bordering on hot. The carpet needs to be shampooed and/or placed. Long black hair from the previous occupant was in and around the bathroom sink (my hair is short and brown). I did not see many staff members.
