    The room smelled like an ash tray when we had asked for a non-smoking room to accommodate for a 3 year old and a 6 year old. Also, when going down the elevator, it had stopped on the 2nd floor and we were greeted with a smashed window at one of the 2nd floor rooms. My kids were terrified to continue staying there.

    Nothing honestly. This was horrible and filthy.

    Lights didn't work in the first room we got. The second room's exhaust fan sounded like it was going to explode! So loud. After traveling all night, we got there before checkin time. Asked to have our bags held until the. Not possible. So they said, for $40 we could checkin early. So we did. That was the room that the lights didn't work. Our only option from them was to get a different room after 3 pm. So what was the point of me paying $40? When I asked for it refunded, they laughed.

    Even though the inn was right next to a fancy casino hotel, it was in the middle of a major renovation. One of the customers allowed a person in her hotel room while she stood in the open doorway in her bra and panties for the neighborhood to see. It made me think I had not chosen wisely but there was no loud noises throughout the night nor a lot of foot traffic over night. The clerks were very friendly and ready to help in anyway they could. They should invest in some better towels and wash cloths or a laundry that could remove stains better. Their outside staircase needs the carpet removed. It retains too much dirt and trash.

    The property was nothing like the pictures, burn holes in the linens, peeling paint and heavy scuff marks on the walls, a broken night stand, missing towel fixtures, the batteries and back to the remote missing, an outlet falling out of the wall, the heater was cracked in places....this was an all around disaster.

    It was dirty looking and smelled. Trash in parking lot. Carpet in stairwells was absolutely filthy. One stairwell was blocked off with caution tape. Covered parking area was blocked off with tape and barrels. Elevator inspection certificate was more than 1 year expired. Homeless people sleeping across the street on electrical transformers. Pictures online made it look way better than it was.

    It was a close walk to the St. Louis Arch which was the point of our visit.

    The new room we were moved to still smelt like smoke. We were told it was cleaner. The sheets and blankets had cigarette burns. The AC was off when we arrived and took hours to cool down. The bathroom door wouldn’t shut. The room was overall uncomfortable. We were also forced to leave a $50 cash deposit in case we smoked. Then when they returned the deposit, they didn’t even check the room which was comical. If you’re looking for a bed to sleep in that is a mile from downtown, this is it. However, do not have any expectations.

    We needed to swap rooms because the first one had broken plumbing, water on the floor, and smelt overwhelmingly like smoke.

    Nothing Horrible Hotel. Appears to host prostitution and other illegal activites, extremely dirty- lobby, rooms, elevators, everywhere was extermely unkept and high standards aren't maintained. Should not be a hotel on this site. Smelled like cigarettes and cat pee in my non-smoking room. I took a video

    The bed sheets were stained, the bathtub was inoperable, and there was hair all over the bathroom floor. The room smelled strongly of smoke, which caused our child to have an allergic reaction. We had paid for two nights but left immediately, and we never received a refund. Very disappointed.

    It was awful, dirty. They originally denied my booking saying it didn’t exist. Had to give me a room without a working shower. They gave another couple a room key to my room and they came in on me.

    I arrived to St. Louis at 11 PM and found out my original booking for another hotel had been oversold. This was one of the only ones I could find last minute and just went with it. I had to wait for homeless people to move carts and blankets off of the sidewalk before I could even pull in so it was not off to a good start. When we got taken to our room I was absolutely horrified by what I saw. The carpet on the steps was filthy. The room beside us had their window busted out and covered with cardboard. When we got inside our room it just went downhill from there. Door lock was broken and missing pieces. Ceiling by the sink area was falling down. Didn't even want to step foot in the restroom. Bed sheets and towels were stained with burn holes. Everything in the room was dusty and the crack in the bad had so many crumbs and hair it made me sick. TV sitting in front of the nonworking one. I didn't feel comfortable even laying in the bed and considered sleeping in my car but I was afraid it was going to get broken into while in the parking lot. I left as soon as I could the next morning and forfeited my money for the second night. If I could give negative number for my rating I would!
