La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Springfield MA

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Springfield MA

8/10 Good
"There are two things to be highlighted. We found urine in the toilet that hadn't been flushed. The other issue is, when water is being used in the bathroom of another room (maybe upstairs or next door), the water pipes in my room make a whistling sound—it is very noisy, especially at night."
