Top hotels in Southside
Extended Stay America Select Suites Springfield South
Residence Inn by Marriott Springfield
Staff and facility was excellent. The room was over the top. Only reason I gave it four stars instead of five was the mattress sucked. It was more like a boxspring than a mattress made noises every time you moved.

We were amazed by our room. Plus we arrived about an hour before check in time and the staff was able to accommodate us.
