Still great and super comfortable
We stayed here years ago…its was excellent and it still is. Great amenities even including washer and dryer on the floor. Comparable to all hotels in the area and here you are centrally located in the St Louis area. Oh and they recently renovated.

It is without doubt a different experience. Unlike staring in a conventional hotel, here you have to get your coffee, water, and tea from the floor pantry. You see small meeting rooms as you walk through the hallways.

Family weekend getaway
Everything was so nice. Staff so generous. We needed extra items and they arrived within 10 minutes of requesting them. Parking was a little strange for us to figure out but not enough for me to actually take away from the experience
