Birthdays in the pool was annoying. Elevators suck. The "restaurant" was a joke. I'm sorry, it definitely wasn't worth the money.

The grass isn't always greener on the other side.

We originally chose this place because of the hot tub and sauna that it had and how beautiful it was. They're still beautiful however our whole entire state pool area with the hot tub had been shut down by Missouri health inspectors. They reimburse us $50 for parking which we weren't told that we're being charged that when we checked in. We paid almost $200 a night and didn't even get to swim but the rooms was nice and the guy at the front desk was super kind when we first got there. If it wasn't for him being our first interaction we probably would have left knowing that we didn't get to use any of the amenities. I feel that we should have been reimbursed more than $50 and I shouldn't have had to ask and it should have been offered knowing that we weren't going to be able to use the poor and hot tub. The area was really beautiful though and everything was conveniently close. I suggest you spend your $200 a night at another place. Did you get two free cocktails which they didn't tell you, a night so having not been told that until the last night we were there by the bartender, it was more or less just a place the rest our heads.

The room was dirty. Carpet is worn and needs shampooed. TV in the bedroom did not work They said they would fix it the next day. Took 2 days to fix. I scheduled house keeping and they never cleaned the room once. Found a bug in my bed. I will not stay at this location again. Very disapointed

If the pool & hot tub aren't open, and your search criteria doesn't show you any hotels without those 2 things, that amenity option should be removed from the property. No way I would stay at this hotel without that option, and never again now even if that option is available. Old, outdated, leaks in the sinks and water damage on ceilings, and stains on the bathroom walls. And the entire place smells of pool chemicals, which just adds insult to injury. With a renovation and updates it could be nice again, but it's almost too late for that.

It worked

Stayed in a suite. The ac didn’t work properly which made the room warm. The drain in the shower was very slow, it was like taking a bath. There was mold in the room by the window where there was clearly water damage. The pool was clean and hot tub was hot. Staff were friendly. This place needs an update and maintenance.

Disappointing stay

The heat wasn’t working in our room and it got down to 54 degrees. The tub faucet had a stream of water that constantly ran causing the whole bathroom to stay wet. The bathroom sink didn’t run and there was a light out by the bed. Maintenance was able to get the heat running later in the day and he was able to fix the sink and light but the water running in the tub never stopped. The pool and hot tub weren’t available off and on during our stay. The air hockey table broke down while we were there. Most of the staff was very friendly (we only ran into one bartender that was rude). We paid for parking but one night there were no spots available and we had to park in a back access way.
