“This hotel strikes me as a place geared towards large events, given its proximity to the Springfield Expo Center and generous meeting space. The pet-friendly policy, with its dedicated Bark and Stay package, stands out among similar hotels in the area. Weekend breakfast is a thoughtful perk, and the central location is ideal for exploring downtown.”
