Fine hotel…skip the breakfast
The woman working at the front desk upon check in was friendly and helpful. We were attending an event at BJC, and the hotel was conveniently located to the venue. It was startling when the fire alarm went off at one point. We evacuated the building, but nobody came around and told us it was safe to go back in. Nobody told us what was going on. It was honestly a little unsettling. There was not breakfast included, but we paid extra for the breakfast buffet. It was NOT worth the price at all. I have was way better free hotel breakfasts, and this was pricier than the delicious breakfast we enjoyed the next day the The Waffle House. Overall, the hotel was clean and convenient, and the staff was great. We would stay again.

Staying at this hotel was a great experience. Our room was nicely fitout and clean. The common areas and amenities are also well done (food was good as well). Top that off with well trained and super helpful staff and the result was a 5 star stay.
