Pear Tree Inn St. Louis Near Union Station
The staff was wonderful! The hotel itself is a bit outdated room wise but was clean, the bathtub had some noticeable rust stains though. The breakfast buffet was very nice, while we didn't use the pool it was very popular!

Drury Plaza Hotel St. Louis at the Arch
Breakfast was awesome both days! The 5:30 Kickback was very good but really crowded. Motel was fully booked and Cardinals had home games so this was understandable.

21C Museum Hotel St Louis
Second time I've stayed, and the last! First time room was super dirty, same goes the second. Gross orange mold in the comers of the shower. Waited 2 hours past our 4:00 check-in for our rooms, not a 'sorry' or any kind of comp. Valet tried to charge me for a two day stay as well. Took three days ...
