Stayed here a few weeks back for my daughter's IWCOA wrestling event. The room was great, VERY…read moreclean and nice. Everything worked great and we had no problem with noise or anyone else on our floor. We got the kind suite which included the king side bed and a full pull out couch (sleeps 4). There were only two issues we had while we stayed there. 1 - I booked a room for 3 people and they didn't leave pillows or blankets for the pull out couch there. A few calls and several hours later we were told to come down to get a blanket but they were out of pillows (they were supposed to bring it up to our room originally). 2 - the breakfast food isn't really restocked and every day we went there was a low quantity of everything. Luckily we didn't need much because girls didn't want to eat heavy and I was snacking most of the day at the BOS center, but it would've been nice for guests not to just wait around for stuff. The kitchen is also super small where everything was. Overall I'd say we had a great stay and the good outweighed the bad. I felt safe there and that was what I was most worried about. Parking was also super close.

Pretty nice Hilton property on the outskirts of Springfield, Illinois. We had come from St. Louis…read moreand a Cubs-Card game ... where we had stayed at another Hilton property in St. Louis, so we had a direct comparison ... and the Hilton in Springfield won hands down. The Springfield Hilton Garden Inn is not a luxury hotel by any means but it held its own as a nice budget friendly option. Free coffee downstairs in the morning, a fitness room with old but serviceable equipment, a pool if you were looking for that, and a six-day a week restaurant if you wanted to eat in. So the Springfield Garden Inn had everything we needed. If they wanted to change it up vis-a-vis the competition, they should consider converting the full service restaurant into a free continental breakfast place ... that would set them apart. But all in all we wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.

We typically stay at Hampton Inn hotels when we are on a road trip. After this stay I am going to…read morere-think that. We checked in for our three night stay. We were given a first floor room near the back door, which seemed odd. Mr. Bee has a Hilton Honors account and we typically do higher floor, but they said this was all they had, yet we had a reservation. We settled into our room, and noticed it was quite dated and we expected better. Our room was near the hotel laundry and there were three vents near our room for the dryers. All day and all night, it sounded like a motorcycle revving its engine outside our room. Needless to say, it was restful sleep. Mr. Bee did inquire at the front desk about the noise, and there was no apology, offer to move us, it was simply yes, that is from the hotel laundry. On the mirror outside the bathroom there is a sticker advising that housekeeping will be done every other day. Yet, in our 3 night, 4 day stay we never got housekeeping services. Again, Mr. Bee walked down and asked if we could get some new towels as we hadn't had housekeeping in, and the front desk staff said well they have all gone home for the day, but here are two towels. Seriously??? Again, no apology. Breakfast was your typical Hampton Inn breakfast, it was fine. The eating area is small and the floor was sticky when walking on it. My tennis shoes stuck to the floor. Just not the level of other Hampton Inn Hotels and we have stayed in plenty. Honestly, I think I would skip this and look for something else in Springfield. We were very disappointed.

I travel extensively for work and stay at Hilton properties multiple times per month…read more Unfortunately, this was one of the worst hotel experiences I have had in years. The room and overall property felt visibly dirty and poorly maintained. I found ants in my room and later observed staff walking around spraying consumer grade bug spray in common areas rather than what appeared to be professional pest management. At no point during a hotel stay should a guest have to worry about bugs crawling into their belongings. What disappointed me even more was the complete lack of follow through afterward. After providing direct feedback during my stay, I was told management would be contacted, points would be added to my account, and that a manager would personally follow up with me. None of those things happened. I understand that no property is perfect, and I generally extend a great deal of grace as someone who travels constantly. However, cleanliness, accountability, and communication matter. This experience fell far below the standard I have come to expect from Hilton.

called the local hotel number to book my reservation because I wasn't sure if I could pay extra for…read morean extended late checkout time. The standard late checkout is 1pm and I needed 3pm. My boyfriend had work meetings until 2:30 and we were in town to close on the selling of my house which was scheduled for 4pm. the time of check in we were informed that all the tvs in the hotel were inoperable and that they were working on applying credits for the inconvenience. We didn't make a fuss, just dealt with it knowing they would give us a credit The following day, while I was visiting family, the staff forced my boyfriend to end his meeting and leave the room at 1pm, even though he explained the arrangement. When I arrived at the hotel I inquired about getting a refund for the $50 I paid for the hours we didn't get and was told that they couldn't refund my money because I had somehow booked through expedia. That's when I found out that all their calls are forwarded from the local number to Expedia. Unfortunately, no one tells you you're talking to Expedia. I even called back to see if there was any indicator that I was talking to another company, there was not. Even my emailed receipt had no mention of it. After finding out they couldn't refund the money I inquired about the credit for the tv issues and they had the same answer, they couldn't do anything because it was Expedia. Which, had they told me that at check in, it would have been frustrating but manageable. However , the fact that I was mis lead by the front desk person, is no okay. At this point I'm frustrated for obvious reasons and the staff, including the GM acted as though I was a problem. If they had approached me with kindness and sympathy for the situation, I would have no beef with them, They are simply the messenger of bad news, but instead I got hatefulness. To add insult to injury jury, the hotel was virtually vacant, there was no reason to push us out early. Additionally, when I called Expedia about getting a refund, they put me on hold to talk to the front desk and the front desk denied my refund. So, you're telling me, they have no control on giving a credit, but they can deny me the refund?
