Upon checking, there was a female with a small child checking in who appeared to be under the influence of Meth. She was paying cash and appeared to be trying to hide out there. The next morning another female got off the elevator carrying a plastic bag of personal items and had a big black eye. Felt like this place was a domestic violence safe house.

Dalton is a super star! Great service. Our issue was the very inconsiderate family next door. Kids and parents yelling all night and banging on walls. Fell asleep with ear plugs and TV at 1030. Up at 240 am due to noise. Dalton offered to move us, but my mother was her on a hospital stay and was not in condition to move after the trip here, so we made the best of it.

Noisy and dirty
Pictures and reviews led me to believe this was located in park like area near zoo. Instead it was a sketchy, concrete jungle next to hwy that was so noisy couldnt hear tv. Dirty with weird smells. Hair on coffee cups in room. Felt very itchy and uncomfortable.

The room had bedbugs and me and my significant other weee bit multiple times. The key cards to the doors only work for a good hour before you have to get a new one. Only positive thing would be the small balcony view.

Room 512 is infested with bed bugs. They were in the bathroom and all over the pillows. Luckily, I always check the room before settling in. The front desk staff was very friendly and was immediately apologetic over the situation. I was moved two floors away. I thoroughly checked the second room, which didn't have any evidence of bugs. At first glance, the room appeared very clean, but the back of the bathroom door where you hang your towel or toiletry bag was disgusting, the headboard was vile, the side of teh bathroom vanity was really dirty, there was pubic hair on 3 of the 5 towels, and the fitted sheet was inside out. Don't know if the flipped sheet means anything, like if they flipped it instead of fresh sheets, or if it is just a lack of caring whether it is right side out. The bedding appeared clean and felt starchy. The pillows and mattress were really worn down and lumpy/saggy. They're marked as having breakfast, there's no breakfast. The balcony is a nice touch. Can be a little loud due to being near several hospitals and the highway, but overall the area was the perfect location as I needed to be near BJH. Alot of STL hotels have reviews that report bedbugs, so it's not a problem limited to one place, but since the room had cleanliness issues, I probably wouldn't come back.

Felt like an old hotel that is in midst of being remodeled. For the price, not a bad option but had weird things like rust in the tub, toilet was running when I arrived, and room smelled a little like smoke. Front desk person was nice and the hotel was quiet but the road next to it was very noisy.
