T.T.
We have stayed at the Doubletree in Springfield and it was VERY nice. It is our favorite, but can be expensive. Sometimes you can get a good deal.
We have also stayed at the Drury Inn, its been a while, but it was nice.
Most recently we stayed at the Holiday in Express. It was a good place to stay also.
Just something to think about when booking a room, especially if you are traveling without your husband. Try to get a hotel where the doors to the rooms are on the inside rather than open to outside. It's just an added safety feature. My mom and I have stayed in Springfield several times and we try to watch out for that!
Good Luck!
