One Night Trip
I have stayed at this hotel I think three times now and each stay has been fine. The rooms are clean and updated, it is close to downtown St. Louis, and it is a good value.

Great value
Basic room, very clean, comfortable beds. The hotel was close enough to the highway for an overnight stay during our trip. The staff was courteous and we were very satisfied.

We stayed one night and found our room clean, comfortable and well kept (especially for an obviously older motel). This is an exceptional place to stay if you just need a clean, quiet, comfortable, affordable place to sleep. Also, the Cahokia mounds are just up the road and are fascinating if you are a fan of archeology.

Restful nights
I mostly need a clean, comfortable, quiet place to sleep, in a hotel. This place fit the bill nicely. It is very suitable for one or 2 people to get some rest. It is right down the road from the Cahokia Mounds Historic site, and about 10 mins from downtown St Louis; so conveniently located as well.

Overnight Stay
There was a nice staff member at check-in. My room was clean, quiet, and comfortable. The price for the room was very reasonable and the hotel is minutes from downtown St. Louis. I have stayed at this hotel several times in the past and will stay there again.

Rented a double room and it was the best one that I have had in four stays. It was clean and very up-to-date. The microwave and fridge are always nice to have.

Quick Solo Trip
Quick overnight trip to St. Louis. The hotel is only 10 minutes or so from down town and the price is great. My room was clean and up to date. It is an older hotel in a slightly rough area but I have stayed there several times with no concerns.
