I would never stay at this property again. The pillowcases were dirty. There were human hairs still on the bedsheets and the pillowcase. There was no shampoo. The wall unit heating/air-conditioning did not work. There was a bad odor, and the hallway was terribly loud When other patrons were speaking. This place needs to close.

Stayed here for Mizzou homecoming weekend. It was a great price. Staff was kind and attentive. Close to a truck stop diner which was convenient. Worth the 15 min Ubers to Mizzou campus to pay a reasonable price.

The girl was more than accomplished! The rooms definitely need a total makeover! We had to switch rooms because the tv sucked, but like I said the girl went above & beyond & got us another room! But seriously over $100 a night should be upgraded! Definitely seen a dead roach in first room!

If this is hell, i will go to church more.

When we arrived at the hotel , I walked in and was greeted by a very nice receptionist. I thought all would be well. Yeah I was wrong. When I received the room key which was an actual key , I was a little concerned. I was told that my room was around the back side of the hotel and go up the stairs. When I went to the park the car there were two ladies that walked out to where the dumpsters were and literally hopped in the dumpsters. I make my way up. To the second floor to where my room is according to mikey and I opened the door and the first thing I smell is marijuana. Even though all the signs are over the hotel clearly state no smoking. As we walked down the hall next to my room was a broken soda machine and by broken I mean shattered. Once I get all my stuff inside the room.I went to walk next door to the gas station to pick up a water.Walking through the area next to the hotel was a bar which Hey, that's but I was accosted by a lot lizard.Who said for $20?I could have some fun. I then walked to the gas station and no words describe what was there. The windows to the hotel room where even worse.It looks like it had not been washed. In several weeks.
