The room was clean, however, please be advised that there are shady characters walking around in the casino parking garage that were looking into people's cars.

Quality Inn West Springfield
I feel like the picture has nothing to do with the place. The place was nothing like the picture but when you need something last minute, it is what it is.

Comfort Inn & Suites Hadley - Amherst
Really convenient to UMass campus and Amherst. Rooms and bathrooms were large but note that walls are very thin. Luckily our neighbors were considerate! Breakfast had good options. Only con was that Fox News was blaring through breakfast which made a bad start to the day.

Holiday Inn Express Springfield Downtown by IHG
The staff were friendly and accommodating. The hotel was clean. Didn’t get a chance to try breakfast. Only complaint is the weak water pressure in the shower.
