Retro vibe

The vibe is “retro motor court meets modern convenience.” For someone who appreciates history, kitsch, or Americana road-trip aesthetics, it's hard not to be charmed.

ROOM 412 The jetted tub was way old and in disrepair. The control knobs for the pump speed were there but not connected to anything and just turned round and round with zero effect. One speed which was way too hard and fast for old folks like us who had paid extra for a room with a jetted tub as we use them all the time for our aches and pains. The off on switch had been replaced with a button inside the cover where the original switch had been and you had to stick your finger into a small hole with rough plastic edges. The drain stopper was loose and if you put it in place you could fill the tub, but the only way to drain the tub was to break your fingernails digging under the edge of it to pry it out. Upon check out (who requires check out to get a receipt anymore?) they asked how things were and when I described this to them I was treated as if I expected too much. A manager rode her golf cart to go look at the room (as if I must have been making it all up?) They offered a whole $10 discount saying I had not given them the chance to make it right? Quaint old roadside motel, now surrounded by "City" and not updated for parking cars and nowhere to correctly park a pick up truck without blocking other spaces and absolutely nowhere to park with any kind of trailer period. If you have a small car and don't need a jetted tub, might be just okay for you.

Cute Little Motel

The room was clean, Refrigerator was cold and the price was right. It’s close to campus, restaurants and shopping. It was great for Family Weekend at MSU. The only negative was that the room smelled like Raid bug spray.

We stayed here with our pet and booked a king room with Hotel.com. When we arrived, we were switched to a double as they were the only pet-friendly rooms. These were the hardest beds we have ever attempted to sleep on. We were scheduled to stay two nights and enjoy Springfield, however, we left after one. I went to the front desk and explained we were leaving due to the hard beds. The clerk told me she would give a $20 discount and remove the second night for the inconvenience. She never did it.
