Pros:

Staff were friendly, but seemed they had something better to do. I mentioned several maintenance items, once at beginning of stay, nothing changed. Then at end, don’t recall if made any notes.
Completely bed bug bitten at end of stay.

Pros:

This property seems more like a low cost housing project. We were in building 13 and there was literally a person with their car jacked up, tire off and engine parts laying all over the parking lot working on repairing their car. Next to one of the front doors someone had a stolen Target shopping cart. It was far from what we expected when we booked. Luckily we only stayed one night or we would have left. The room was spacious and clean but the facility was run down and seemed like a HUD subsidized property. We won’t be coming back.

I would stay again due to the area and the room size. Safe
Pros:

The location was nice, out by the mall and plenty of restaurant's. Convenient to get to downtown and other attractions. Rooms were big, clean and comfortable.

Cons:

That they only had coffee and tea, no breakfast at all. The rooms have patios so whoever was there before us must of left it open, we had a dozen of flies in our room, stuck in one corner.

Pros:

I don't like the fact that for the second time they have overcharged me. When confronted the manager told me i have to dispute charges to get my refund rather than just refunding my like they did on the first time. Either they don't know financial procedures or they are incompetent. Either way i will never stay there again!

Pros:

When we checked in your facility(1211) on 8/25/25, we saw linnen collection can with linnens partly touching the ground 10 feet away from the door of the room 1211, which made us uneasy, and it stayed that way throughout that night till we checked out next morning.

Also kitchen light didn't work, soup bowl was only one(I listed 3 people when reserved), also spoon was only one in undesirable condition.
And we felt room was damp(?).

Anyway, I complained about it on 8/27/25 when we checked in your facility, and front staff gave us far better room. So, I thank about it.

If you correct small small matters putting more careful concern, you will have good reviews from guests. Thanks for your asking.

I want to use your facility often for my visitors.

Expecting your professional service.

Pros:

This hotel has been booked for my organization's major event every year for the last 4 years.
In 2021, it was phenomenal. From the grounds, to the rooms, to the staff.
Sadly, I can not say that about any part of it now.
This year was completely and utterly disgusting.
When I called last month to book my personal room, there was zero mention that the pool was put of order (discovered as i arrived and saw the sign on the gate to what looked like a swamp with furniture strewn about), and no more continental breakfast. I was traveling with two small children, and having both amenities is what the deciding factor was to stay with the group.
Had I been made aware, I would have chosen another place that had these.
No housekeeping. If we wanted fresh linens, we were told to bring the dirty to exchange.
We were placed all the way in the back corner on the second floor. Pulling around to that area, there were unsupervised children, ranging from in diapers to around twelve years of age, throwing landscaping rocks around.
Pulling into my spot for building 16, I parked next to what appeared to be an abandoned vehicle, beat up, and the stench of Marijuana around it.
Trash around the property as we walked to the back and up the stairs.
Upon entering the room, a sign on fireplace stating, "PLEASE DO NOT USE FIREPLACE THANK YOU MANAGEMENT."
Ice maker in freezer broken. No paper ttowels available in kitchen. A full pot coffee maker with no coffee filters. No vacuuming of carpeted floor. Corner wall protectors dangling from corners of walls. Hallway light not working. Bathroom sink with random hairs. Dirty toilet. Shampoo and conditioner dispensers empty, and soap dispenser completely missing. One tiny Shampoo and one tiny conditioner on counter. Only two sets of towels for 3 guests for 3 days. No linens for fold out bed. Had to go to front desk, past the two girls yelling back and forth about inappropriate things with foul language with my kids. Check under that bed in 1623. I guarantee whomever cleans has not touched under there in atleast a year. A cardboard box, dirty sock, a dirty comb, a vape, food crumbs, and something wrapped in paper towel I REFUSED to investigate
Staff that, "Don't know, Supervisor left," is unacceptable. Im supposed to just shrug my shoulders and happily fork over my hard earned money, which over 500 dollars to stay here and these conditions was a complete disgrace and I should be reimbursed. To charge that much and to truly believe that is acceptable at those rates is delusional. I will never stay here again, I am in discussion with our organization to find another hotel that has far better standards when a whole block of people is spending that much money. I will also be contacting Choice Hotels regarding this experience, and reviews will contain photos of everything experienced during this regrettable experience

My reservation was cancelled because they was double booked AND I was still charged.
Cons:

I don’t like that my room was cancelled THE DAY OF. And since it was 3rd party, the actual hotel NOR Booking told me it was cancelled. I called for an early check in and then was told my room was cancelled because the double booked. And to make things worse, I was STILL CHARGED for the room. I reached out on June 25th and have YET
to get a refund. It’s now July 10th 😒

Our stay was fine, bed was comfortable, area is quiet.
Pros:

Convenience to mall, movies, activities.

Cons:

The website advertises breakfast but there was no breakfast. We had to ask for wash cloths. This is not huge but there was only 1 garbage can in the apartment which was in the kitchen. So any garbage created in the bath/toilet area had to be carried to the kitchen. I ended up moving that can to the bathroom.

Pros:

I like it had a barbecue grill. Especially since the pool didn't work on my birthday and the housekeeper didn't vacuum my floors and bring me up new towels and pillow case that i requested after my 3rd day there.

Good value, nice rooms.
Pros:

This was the perfect property for our stay in St. Louis. The location was great for our needs, rooms are very large with lots of storage. Kitchen was lacking a bit, needing more dishes and silverware. It was quiet, comfortable and convenient. Will stay here again.
