I’d stay again
I’d recommend. Not sure if it’s too much work but each room should be swept and mopped before the next guest. Otherwise, I’d highly recommend this place and intend to stay again. Two floors, no elevator. I was not asked if I wanted a bottom room floor. One set of stairs. Keep this in mind

Great value
The staff was friendly and helpful. The room was clean. The beds were comfy. I felt it was in a pretty safe location although there were a few homeless people in the parking lot both when we checked in and when we left. They could probably do a little better job cleaning as the fridge in our room looked like someone spilled something in it but it was not cleaned prior to us checking in. But overall, it was a great value for the money.

Room was good for a week long stay. AC unit was a little noisy and cut off after a few hours but that was the only issue.

Very nice for an easy and safe stay just outside of St Louis. Room was very clean and functional, way nicer than what I’ve experienced in some chain hotels. The only issue was getting the tv remote to work but we weren’t staying long enough to ask about fixing it. Overall a great experience and would recommend for anyone looking to stay just outside of the city!

If you are looking for a clean and inexpensive place to stay, this is it. Nothing fancy, close to the highway, and apparently well managed. I’ll be back on my next trip.👍

It was pretty basic, but that was to be expected. The area was fairly safe and the staff were kind. Unfortunately, our toilet had some trouble flushing and the bathroom overall probably could have been a smidge cleaner. I’d also recommend bringing your own shampoo and conditioner. Overall, I got what I paid for :)
