Its 10 minutes from downtown in an area with several chain restaurants around (Burger King, Taco Bell, Jimmy John's, etc) There's also a pretty good Mexican restaurant attached to one end of the inn. The front of the inn is like a porch. Its well maintained. The King room I had was huge. I love that I could easily control the temperature. Bed is comfy and so are the pillows. Overall a nice room. Theres an indoor pool in the hotel, that I did not use. There's also a small gym area with just machines, no weights. Not a bad place to stay in Springfield.

The room rate is very good, with a better than expected experience for the price paid. The service is outstanding here, with lots of smiles and requests quickly processed. The hotel has quite a large parking lot, with plenty of space inside. Overall the decor looks bright and modern, with plenty of amenities such as exercise room, laundry, and cold pool available for guests. The rooms themselves are quite spacious with comfortable beds and a nice restroom. The beds come with plenty of pillows and a mattress that's not too firm and a good set of blankets and sheets. The furniture and appliances around the room are fairly basic, and will get the job done to ensure that you have a comfortable stay. The breakfast is pretty good here, with plenty of juice and hot drink options. The eggs, waffles, sausage are the hot items with cereals, breads, yogurt, apple, banana, oatmeal, and other items providing a good way to have a quick bite before you leave for the day. The dining room is pretty spacious so you'll be able to enjoy your meal without feeling cramped. Overall, this was a very nice place to stay at and I'd definitely stay here again on a future visit to Springfield.

By far this one of the nicest hotels I've been at in central Illinois. On the outside it looks like…read moreevery other hotel on the road, but it is a much different story on the inside. Once you walk through the door you are greeted by a warmly decorated lobby with chairs, couches, bookcases, TV, and business center. It is set off from the rest of the lobby, yet open at the same time. This hotel also features a convenience store area, pool (unfortunately, no tub), fitness center, and breakfast area. Entering the room, I was struck by how nice the room was spacious it was. There were two queen size beds and there was still room for a chair and stool with room to spare. The rooms come with a coffee maker, refrigerator, and microwave. It has all of the standard amenities but I was impressed that the regular bar soap was replaced with Dove Beauty Bars. Since my skin gets dried out by the standard bar soaps this was a nice and welcome feature. The bed and pillows were comfortable. The hotel was quiet and I was able to have a nice night's sleep. The breakfast was held in a nice big room with plenty of seating for many guests. They offered a lot of food from eggs and sausage to waffles to cereal to yogurt to bagels and bread. Coffee, hot chocolate, fruit juices, milk and water were offered as drinks. This hotel is located close to the Illinois State Fairgrounds and is ten minutes from downtown and the State Capitol. Highly recommended for a great experience in Springfield.

Honestly this one's a tossup between 3 and 4 stars. It seems that the Illinois State Fair, compared…read moreto some of the other state fairs, is kind of boring and doesn't offer a lot. Iowa and Minnesota's state fairs have a better selection of foods to offer, for instance. But I think I'll just stick to the positives of Illinois's. The fair does pay great tribute to the Prairie State, like agriculture, dairy and midwestern life. I'm very surprised and glad that Chicago isn't mentioned all that much, although I wish some Chicago foods would be offered at the fair! The buildings and architecture are nice. The Route 66 Experience (which is open year-round) is a must for everybody. No fair visit is complete without checking out the livestock barns as well as going to livestock judging competitions. Oh and I can't leave out the butter sculptures. As far as the entertainment part, they do have a great eclectic mix of cover bands and popular acts performing there. Again, despite of everything that I said - I do think Illinois needs to step up its game and re-define itself as a popular destination. After seeing what Iowa State Fair has to offer, it definitely made Illinois SF look very weak.
