Additional no-cost perks include free parking and regular evening socials with snacks. A grocery delivery service supports extended-stay routines.
Amenities & Recreation

Best for
This hotel is best suited to extended-stay travelers and anyone who values suite-style space, thanks to kitchens, sofa beds, and larger one- and two-bedroom layouts with separate living areas. It also fits guests who want reliable basics included—hot breakfast, parking, and Wi‑Fi—plus an indoor pool, fitness center, and BBQ area for downtime. Its off–I-90 setting works well for visitors splitting time between Chicopee and Springfield attractions like the Springfield Museums and MGM Springfield.
Travel tips
If you’re planning sightseeing, cluster Springfield stops (Springfield Museums, Dr. Seuss attractions, Springfield Armory, MGM Springfield) together since they’re all roughly 7–8 km away. For day trips with kids, allow extra time for Six Flags New England (about 15 km) and consider evenings at Bright Nights at Forest Park (about 9.9 km) in season. The hotel can be busy during peak holiday weekends, so arriving earlier may help you settle in and make the most of the pool and breakfast periods.
What guests say
Guests repeatedly praise the hotel’s friendly, helpful staff and consistently clean, quiet environment. The suite layouts are a standout: visitors cite spacious rooms, comfortable beds, ample pillows, lots of outlets, and the convenience of kitchens and separate living areas in larger suites. Breakfast is often noted as better than expected for a chain property, with good variety and solid coffee, and the pool area is viewed positively. Less favorable feedback includes the bathroom/sink layout (sink in the room with the toilet/shower separated) and limited in-room toiletry amenities.
