Cleanliness
4.5
Multiple guests reported cleanliness issues: found a cockroach, dirty bathtub with another person's hair, lotion smeared on furniture, open drawers and missing trash bags — clearly below expectations.
Service
8
Service is mixed but generally strong: several mentions of amazing/friendly staff and prompt maintenance response (AC fixed, bug removed), though there are complaints about rude registration staff and being short-staffed during check-in.
Location
8.5
Location is repeatedly praised: walkable to Busch Stadium/downtown, river views and proximity to casino/Four Seasons are positives; a few noted it felt sketchy at night or not beachfront as advertised.
Room Quality
7
Rooms described as spacious and comfortable by many, but some concerns about small/tiny bathrooms, uncomfortable beds and small pillows, and inaccessible balconies — overall average room quality.
Amenities
7
Mixed amenities: positives include shuttle to games and valet/parking; negatives include no pool, lack of microwave access, and bar closures during some weekdays.
Value for Money
7
Value perceptions are mixed: some guests found price reasonable, while others felt short stays or extra early-check-in charges made it poor value.
Food and Beverage
7
Food received positive mentions (food was good), but complaints about bar hours and loud/disco music affecting comfort balance this to an average score.
Overall Experience
7
Overall sentiment is neutral-to-positive: many would recommend or stay again and enjoyed location/facilities, but recurring cleanliness and front-desk issues tempered guest experiences.

Overall it was ok if you’re not too good to accept some stuff.
Pros:

The location was ok, walkable to Busch stadium if need be. We walked back after a concert. It was slightly sketchy but felt comfortable because we were in a group. I wouldn’t necessarily want to walk back alone in the dark. It is right on the river so the river view was cool!

Cons:

When we got into our room, the AC was not working. Which, maintenance staff promptly came to fix/replace. We did find a cockroach on the sink that is out side the bathroom. This was pointed out to maintenance and he took a photo (as did I) and removed for us. We did not see any other bugs.

Good location, nice rooms.
Pros:

Rooms very big and comfortable. Shuttle to game is nice.

Cons:

Extra charge to check in early, is ridiculous, if they have rooms available. Then you wouldn't have to stand in a mile long line to check in a 4pm. It would also be nice if there was a microwave somewhere in the hotel to use. It's a shame the bar isn't open during the week when there is a Cardinal game.
