Review of
4.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 14 Oct 2024
This hotel is in a very convenient location. The first room we were given the heat wasn't working. A maintenance person looked at it, but couldn't immediately fix the situation, so they moved us. This wasn't convenient for us, but they did give us a larger, more spacious room. The hotel is very small, cramped elevators and common areas, tucked into a corner lot. Rooms were clean. Parking lots are in multiple areas. Breakfast was fair - I found rotten fruit in the fruit bowl - obviously not maintained well. Hot beverages ran out on busy days, and I had to let the staff know - they weren't actively monitoring the breakfast stations. We ran into one very edgy, unfriendly staff member at the front desk. The person attending to rooms and a man monitoring the entryway were very nice, helpful, and friendly! Overall a decent stay! Mainly due to location and cleanliness.

Dear good location,
Thank you for sharing your experience and giving us a 4-star rating! It sounds like you had a mixed stay. It’s great to hear that you appreciated the convenient location and the cleanliness of the rooms. I’m sorry to hear about the issues with the heating and breakfast; those are definitely important aspects of a stay. It's encouraging that some staff members were friendly and helpful, but I can understand how an unfriendly interaction could be off-putting. Your feedback about the breakfast is valuable and could help the hotel improve. I hope your next stay is even better! Thank you once again.

Our stay was perfect for our needs. The room was quiet, comfortable, spacious, and well-appointed, with cozy beds and pillows despite it being located in front of the elevator. Both the rooms and the hotel itself were clean and modern, providing a pleasant atmosphere. The breakfast was satisfactory and rounded out an overall great experience.

Huge kudos to the reception team—both women were incredibly professional, which is something that's often lacking nowadays!

My family had an outstanding stay that surpassed our expectations in every way. Due to a schedule change on my part, I had 3 rooms reserved for 2 consecutive nights under 6 separate reservation numbers. The Holiday Inn reservation call center told me this was necessary because the hotel was fully booked and we would have to check-out in the morning and switch to different rooms, which would have been a huge inconvenience. We arrived at the hotel on a very busy weekend when several local events and college graduations were taking place. Jess at the front desk immediately recognized that my original booking was not ideal and discussed it with the hotel general manager. He was able to merge our reservations so we did not have to change rooms. It took some time to process all the changes, and through it all Jess was very friendly, patient, and acted with great poise. Our rooms were updated and very clean and comfortable. I slept better on the mattress and bedding than I have at other higher end properties. The rooms were quiet and we had no issues with excessive noise. Parking was convenient. Overall, an excellent property!

The property is modern and in good shape. The staff was friendly. The breakfast was pretty good, too. It's conveniently located within a few blocks of the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame, MGM Springfield Casino, MassMutual Center and the Springfield Museums. What more could you want? I'll tell you, actually: a room that actually got dark at night. We had a corner room and light crept around the curtains on both sides; the smoke detector flashed like a strobe light every few seconds, and it was like a spotlight was shining in under the door. Aside from that, we enjoyed our stay.

Staff was extremely accommodating and polite. From early check in to late check out options. Breakfast was great. The new pool rules I was a little concerned but it seemed like everyone followed them. The rooms were exceptionally clean as well. It was also pretty quiet considering there was a gymnastic dance and hockey all this weekend. We will be back

This hotel is clean and comfortable. It's in a central location. The staff is fabulous. They are courteous, helpful, and friendly. Security helped me when they saw me struggling with my ridiculous levels of Tonya Mcwad/White Lotus levels of luggage. Parking isn't the greatest. I had to park around back and then roll said luggage a pretty long way around the building to get inside. Random people mill about around the small parking lot. I made sure I took everything in my car inside in case it got broken into. Everything about the hotel is great, except the parking situation.
