Unfortunately, this hotel is not in the best location and is not walkable at all. However it is convenient to SLU and surrounding areas. The property itself is a little run down and I've elevator was down while we were there. Me thankfully, we were on the third floor and could take the stairs. Paying for parking is ridiculous given that we paid for the room and it should be included. I wouldn't start here again knowing that, but it's a decent place to stay right off the highway

As we are settling in. A woman walks in to clean. I'm guessing they don't communicate with their check in staff. TV in the bedroom didn't work. Lady radioed down but nothing ever came of it. No towels at the pool. Oh and mold in the bathroom.

Unclean

While staff was friendly, they were way understaffed and not able to tend to all matters of the hotel properly. It also seems like there isn't much budget for updates. The couches, carpet and mattress were stained. The room smelled strongly of pets and there was hair from previous lodgers in the room. One of the elevators was broken, and the elevator lobby smelled strongly of smoke. With COPD and asthma it was hard on my lungs. The pool was also very unclean. While there, we witnesses the exterior pool door being propped open and someone off the street came in to use the exercise room.

This hotel has seen better days. Unfortunately, this hotel did not have a working pool during our stay, the coffee machine in our room didn’t work, one of the elevators was out of order, our keys stopped working on day 2, the fitness center had poor ventilation and fans/AC, and there were dirty towels left inside the pull out couch from the previous guests. I would still stay here again because it was a great deal for a holiday weekend, just don’t expect the same level of quality as other Marriott or Residence Inn hotels.

The staff was very friendly, especially Angie at breakfast. The options at breakfast were plenty. However, the property was not what I expect from a Residence Inn. The pool was out of order when we checked in. I was told it would be back in order the next day. The out of order sign was still up the next morning until I asked about it. Then they took the sign down. The next morning the sign was back up again? The entire pool area is in need of maintenence - ceiling, walls, interior of pool, deck, etc. One elevator was out of order. The hallways smelled of urine or dirty diapers, my son thought a dog kennel. There was a smell coming from our, yet unused, garbage disposal. The pillows were lumpy. The back of the bathroom door had what looked like wet toilet paper splattered on it with some on the adjacent wall. The bowed shower curtain rod was mounted so that the curtain slid to the center, so water got out on both ends. The ceiling in the bathroom was crumbling from mold because the exhaust fan didn't work in the shower/toilet area. I wonder why there is an iron gate around the property, but its not being used?

We only stayed one night while in town for the Sza concert and only in the room for a total of 5 hours, so didn’t really use a lot. Ok cleanliness and pretty much the normal older Residence Inn style. Staff was really friendly though and the room was comfortable. It was not necessarily a scary area but their parking lot was tricky with different gates going in and out depending on time of day.

We went to a cubs cards game so this hotel was a perfect spot. The staff was sooo nice and helpful. It needs to be updated. Breakfast was good and lots of variety. I think some of the damage was due to being pet friendly. Scratches on walls and stains. The bed was very comforable.
