“This hotel stands out for its round-the-clock dining at Ziggie's Café, a practical advantage for late arrivals or early departures. I appreciate the sizable meeting facilities and pet-friendly policy, appealing to both business and leisure travelers. I noted concerns about room upkeep; however, the location near Springfield's attractions presents a budget-conscious option for those prioritizing convenience.”
