Old buildings make much noise!
Pros:

The hotel is Good! Staff is excellent! Julie, front desk, was amazing!
Location is very good! What went wrong…noise! The floor below the room was thin as a cardboard! I begged to stay in an upper floor, but if I needed a bathtub, the only option was the 2nd floor. Sometimes I could assure that I felt the floor of the room moving! Other rooms doors were so close of each other, that we could hear the slamming doors of the other rooms as if they were mine! If you care for a good night sleeping, this isnt your place!

Wonderful experience!!!
Pros:

I stayed at the Hilton Pennywell for a weekend for my friend's wedding. It's a short walking distance from the Gateway Arch National Park. My room was clean and cozy, and bathroom was very clean. The staff members were very friendly and helpful. I did not get to use all of the amenities in the hotel, but I visited the bar / lounge in the main lobby before the elevators. I recommend the Hilton Pennywell for those who are traveling to St Louis for a quick stay.
