Our room was on the 4th floor since I always request a high floor and was two rooms, a parlor area and a bedroom. There is a not a full wall between the rooms and one TV is shared by the two rooms.
When you walk in the door you see the bar ahead of you with a small sink, microwave, fridge and coffee pot. Love that the coffee pot isn't in the bathroom.
The parlor has a desk, sofa, coffee table and lots of lighting. The TV has the option to watch Youtube and Netflix. We had a king bed and it was very comfortable, too high for Al, he prefers a lower bed but I loved it.
The bathroom has the sink area outside the area where the toilet and shower. My one complaint was that the fan in the bathroom was loud, really loud and annoying. So much so that we could not leave the light on when we closed the door to give us a clear sightline.
On Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, they have a Manager's Reception. We were there on Wednesday and they offer two types of pasta, one white with chicken and one pink and wine, beer and soda. Seriously, we did not need to go out to dinner, it was our dinner.
Breakfast was also a very plentiful affair with make-your-own waffles, scrambled eggs, and sausage, boiled eggs, yogurt, cereal, oatmeal, fresh fruit, including beautiful huge strawberries and blueberries. Lots of things to toast including bagels, English muffins, and bread. But beyond that there were croissants. We do a lot of these buffet breakfasts and this was one of the better ones.
The Springhill Suites includes an indoor pool and a gym, no hot tub, however.
If you are going to be in the Greensboro NC area, we can recommend this hotel with confidence. You won't be disappointed. The area is very quiet, but that also means it will be a little drive to find a nice restaurant if you don't happen to visit early in the week. But not nearly as far as I thought you just have to leave the parking lot and go right.
We have two small complaints, first only two large towels (they are nice and big) in the bathroom, no small towels or facecloths. They were located outside the bathroom. I use two towels, one for my hair and so Al doesn't get a fresh towel and only two coffee pods, one regular one decaf. I am not sure that Springhill Suites really has more single room people than doubles but seriously, I should not have to go ask for more coffee just so that we can each have one.
These complaints are very minor and compared to the wonderful manager's reception and the friendly staff, easily forgivable.
