The hotel was great. I wish I knew the name of the check in lady. She was terrific. Happy with her job and it showed . Not the hotels fault , but downtown StLouis is depressing and awful. Felt odd being there. Really didn’t feel safe walking around.

Needs updated
Hotel needs some updating. Beds were Ok but Toilets are the lowest toilets I have ever seen. Just taller than a water bottle high. Half the elevators were broke ao long wait times. Bathrooms in conference area were not kept clean. A wine glass stayed there for 2 days! Plus holds in funds take almost a week to drop off so don't use your bank card!

Not worth the money at all
Half of the outlets in our room didn’t work, the room (king size bed) was VERY tiny and the shower head didn’t work either. My brother and sister in law stayed too and their TV and phone didn’t work. Very poor quality for the price. I won’t be returning and honestly, I wouldn’t recommend this hotel to anyone. You’re better off saving money and staying at a motel than this place.

Disliked: Amenities
Frosted barn door for the bathroom door has got to be the most asine trend in hotel design. The onsite dining option is also rather poor quality - it was a smidge above most fast casual in quality, but not much better than any generic O'Charley, Applebee's, Chili's, etc.
