Good for the price

I booked the room because I needed an inexpensive room for one night in the St. Louis area. It was the least expensive hotel in the area. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. The clerks were friendly and efficient.

Not the best accommodation

The first room we were offered was very dirty, dirty bedspread on the bed and no top sheet, no towels. The room we stayed in was better, bed linen was clean, but bedspread dirty and very dirty carpet. Took ages to get checked in and when we checked out we had to wait for someone to go and check our room before we could get our deposit back.

Absolutely do not recommend booking here. First off, hotel is in a terrible location. Secondly we got to the hotel later because we were driving 8 hours to get there. Front desk would not allow us to check in stating “our reservation has expired” despite us being in the check in window stated on the Travelocity information. Hotel would not refund us either stating it was a non refundable booking. Luckily I had booked travel insurance so I’m trying to get the money back that way. Overall I’m disgusted with this property and would not recommend anyone ever to book here. You’re way better off staying at the Hampton. It’s close in price in a better location and the staff are way nicer. Oh and they’ll actually let you check in.

Disgusting room - nice staff

Pretty gross room. They only had a smokers room available for us, and the air was absolutely thick with different chemicals they tried to use to clean with. We got an aerosol to combat the smell, but that only seemed to thicken the air. The sheets were old and had stains, the carpet was musky damp. The paint was peeling off the walls in the bathroom. The guy who checked us in was pretty nice though. Can't remember his name, but he seems like a chill dude who happens to work in a gross place.

I was overcharged and then my deposit wasn't refunded. When asking to speak with a manager was told he's unavailable on weekends. I called several times with my bank 3 way about my deposit and she refused to answer after my first call. There was no refrigerator,floors were horribly stained.

I did not like how there was hidden fees. I didn't like how there was a deposit of $150 a fee for my cat an extra $12 even though I already paid online. Employee was I guess sleeping in the room right next to ours and when we got back from getting dinner I got excited because I saw birds, and the employee came to his door and slammed it to get us to shut up. Male manager(?) Came and yelled at them, after we asked them about the person in the room they told us to keep the noise down even though we literally just got there. The blanket in our room had cigarette burn holes. The window shades in our room were broken and busted, basically falling off the hangers for them so we were scared people could see in all night. The only person that made the stay tolerable was the amazing nice lady at the front desk. Amazing woman, horrible place to spend even 1 night.
