The hotel was amazingly close to the St. Louis airport, and the hotel's free shuttle service helped with the decision to stay the night before flying out early the next morning. (If you call the hotel, they immediately send the driver.) The room and hallway were quiet, and the bed was extremely comfortable. I did make sure to wear my shoes to and from the bathroom, etc. since the floors may have not been so clean (I saw hair from previous guests' stay on the floor and in the shower/bathtub). However, the microwave along with the small fridge were nice perks. Overall, I would stay a night there again (with slippers and knowing I was leaving out early the next morning). I cannot comment on the free breakfast since I was not present when it was available, but the airport shuttle service was speedy (even at 4:30 a.m.).
