Very nice and convenient. The voucher for breakfast was great and the food selection was excellent. We appreciated the upgrade to poolside with one exception, at 4:00 AM people were in the pool screaming and loudly laughing and talking enough to wake us up, I’m sure others rooms similar to ours shared the experience. This went on for a while 20 minutes plus. Perhaps locking down access to the pool after hours should be considered.

Breakfast buffet was excellent ($15 adult). Every time I'm in town for a Springfield Cardinals game I always stay at this hotel because its within walking distance of the stadium. The king size bed was so comfy.
