Stay was great. Close to many places to visit. Problems with air conditioning prior to stay, and was upgraded to a different room with a better view of the Arch.

Very nice room. Bed was super comfortable and the room was clean. The next morning after taking a shower the shower would not drain and the toilet clogged up after the shower would not drain. This caused my girlfriend not to be able to shower which was aggravating!! Told front desk and they acted like it was no big deal. So I was a little pissed about that.

The room and hotel were nice, breakfast decent and access to much is nice. Only real complaint was that the room wouldn't cool below 74, the ac was on, but only cooled the area immediately in front of it.

Perfect location
Hotel was clean and staff very friendly and helpful. Indoor pool room was very warm and gumid but the water felt amazing. Very close to local attractions like the Arch, old courthouse, Federal Reserve museum and 1 mile from the City Museum.

Overall stay was good, within walking distance to restaurants and attractions. Only issue was very little water pressure in our shower, ended up losing water for a time in the shower, and we booked three rooms, but the rooms were not together or even on the same floor.

Wonderful and convenient
we went to St. Louis to see the arch and got a room with the view of the arch. We opened our curtains and went to sleep looking at thel lighted up arch! It was wonderful, the comfort of the bed was wonderful and the morning complementary breakfast was wonderful. We would totally stay here again.

The staff was very efficient, professional and friendly, however the hotel itself was a letdown. I love staying at Hampton Inns because i know what i am getting and they have a certain level of comfort. Unfortunately, this is a very old Hampton Inn in downtown St. Louis and the wear and tear is showing. You had to wait forever for an elevator, the hallways and main areas were cramped and run down. The smell of weed was EVERYWHERE. Usually a Hampton Inn bed is my favorite, but thia one was hard and uncomfortable. There was no beauty on the building. It was dark and dank. The area downtown is especially sketchy at night. I would not stay here again.
