Marriott Springfield Downtown

Marriott Springfield Downtown

10/10 Excellent
"Stayed only one night so didn't go outside the hotel. The room was great and the staff was very efficient and friendly. I was alone so sat at the bar and had a glass of wine and dinner; and the bartender was very friendly and easy to chat with. The food was great. All in all a great stay. The parking garage gave me a bit of trouble, but that was on me. Love that there was a big sign on the wall on the way out that told me exactly how to get onto 91N."
