Clean

The hotel was clean. We always stay in a pet free, smoke free hotel. We will return to this one when we travel through Illinois. The only negative thing was the noise of the ac.

The room appeared to be cleaned. I believe the sheets were fresh and very clean. The room was somewhat outdated. The TV was on the small side, but we did find the time to relax while watching TV. The staff was very pleasant and polite..

The hotel itself is managed very well and all the staff was friendly. The hotel is very clean as well are the rooms. I'll be staying there again on my next trip to Springfield. The only drawback i have is the helicopter traffic from the nearby hospital.

Do not recommend

One of the rooms had a musty smell and the tub and shower had mold all around the edges. The other room was out of soap and shampoo. Also the carpet beside the bed was peeling away from the wall. Wouldn’t recommend. We stayed a couple of years back and no issues but this time will be our last.

Nice location

This hotel was nice for the money. The beds were comfortable and the staff was really friendly. The breakfast had hot options which was nice. The location was close to attractions. The only complaint is the room smelled a little funky like it may have had pets previously, but it was tolerable.
