Motels in Springfield

The room and bathroom seemed to have just been remodeled with new shower and sink. The carpet also seemed new. The bed was comfortable. Breakfast was the usual fare (biscuits and gravy, scrambled eggs, toast, yogurt, coffee) served at lower priced hotels/motels but adequate. The room lighting was inadequate. It was late when we checked in and when I opened the door and flipped the light switch no light came on. I then tried to find a light to turn on but then was none close at all. I had to open the door wide to allow enough light in the room to see which I really didn't want to do since there were people right outside my door (checking into another room). There is a seating area with a desk, sofa and coffee table and I had to maneuver past that in the dark to reach a small lamp on the nightstand. There were only two small lamps for a large space and the lightbulb was dim. You could not sit in the living area and read or work at the desk. They need a desk lamp and floor lamp next to the sofa that come on when you flip the switch upon entering the room.
