This was a very humbling experience. Unfortunately I ran into so many problems during my stay. The ice machine didn’t work , the lights in the room didn’t work , the refrigerator door was broken , the hallways & stairwells were dirty , the waitress on Saturday morning was very rude , the guy that served us on Sunday morning was lovely ! Excellence hospitality. The young ladies at the front desk were so sweet & helpful. I genuinely think overall this experience was by far the worst! This hotel need to work on cleanliness & maintenance for sure ! But thank you so much to the staff they did their absolute best to make sure my stay was top tier thank you so much

The property was clean. It was a nice stay and close to downtown activities. Was it the cleanest and best property in St. Louis? No. But it was affordable and clean enough to pass our test.

Lounge chair not in room. They didn't replace after request. Phone didn't work properly. Inside pool sounded like they were outside window on 5th floor. Water stopped working for about 10 minutes while in middle of brushing teeth. Our room was next to elevator lobby and it sounded like they were in the room with us.

Avoid This Hotel – Needs Serious Attention

The room smelled musty and like urine. We had to sanitize everything ourselves because surfaces were sticky and clearly hadn’t been cleaned. The bathroom was falling apart — peeling paint, broken vanity, missing toilet bolt, and dangerously loose handrails. Housekeeping didn’t clean our room until three days after we first requested it (and only after asking twice). The elevators were dirty, every ice machine was out of order, and the TV was nearly unwatchable. To top it off, we saw a giant cockroach by the pool — staff admitted it wasn’t the first sighting. The only positive? The staff were kind and friendly. Unfortunately, great people can’t make up for a filthy, poorly maintained hotel. I will never stay here again.
