This hotel is in need of an upgrade, it’s worn and dated. The furniture was worn and chipped, the upholstered chair looked worn and dirty. While my room looked clean at first glance, it’s in dire need of a deep clean. The shower had plenty of hot water, but the pressure dies off after about 30 seconds. My room faced the parking lot but the window has only a sheer curtain and there’s no way to close the heavier curtain to block out light because they’re fixed to the wall and don’t extend over the window. I woke at 3am because the lights went on in the parking lot and lit up the room as if it were daytime (think stadium lights, VERY bright). The noise from the hallway and the connecting room was loud. I could hear everything going on in the other room and hallway; no privacy to speak of. The connecting door to that room was unlocked when I arrived. The mattress was not great and should be replaced. There is a railway alongside the hotel, freight trains go by at least once an hour, it’s very loud and lasts about a minute. The only positive I have is the staff, everyone was very friendly, however, the front desk staff should know not to announce names and room locations for solo female travelers upon check in while there are other travelers waiting in line behind them. Please respect each guest’s privacy. I also liked that there was a security guard/vehicle patrolling the parking lot throughout the night; Springfield is not the safest place. I would not stay here again.
