This is the play-if-you-bring-the-dog option. La Quinta is pet-friendly with a $20 per-stay fee, and the indoor pool keeps kids busy post-Six Flags. Staff and location both score 8.3, but a 7.4 value rating suggests you’re paying for convenience, not luxury.
What You Actually Get
Free parking, free WiFi, and an American breakfast are included — no nickel-and-diming here. The indoor pool and fitness center add rainy-day backup. Max 2 pets per room (75 lbs or less each), and kids under 18 stay free when using existing bedding. Note the 21+ check-in age, and rooms sleep a max of 4 guests.

2. Holiday Inn Express – Springfield Downtown by IHG
The Vibe
This is the clean-freak pick. A 9.1 in both cleanliness and comfort is rare at this price tier, and guests rave about the breakfast. The downtown location puts you a block from the casino, and the 8.8 location score confirms walkability to restaurants and nightlife.
What You Actually Get
A very good included breakfast (served as grab bags per COVID-era protocols), air conditioning, and upper-floor elevator access. Pets are not allowed here — this is a strict no-dog property. A $100 damage deposit is required at check-in, which is standard for this category. The 4 PM check-in is late, so plan your Six Flags arrival accordingly.
