They are in the middle of a renovation. We were not told that ahead of time. The sound of saws and drills made staying in the room for any extended period of time unpleasant. There was a grandmother who attended to the breakfast area who was particularly grumpy and unfriendly. The breakfast itself was the same food for 5 days in a row ... and not good. Because of the renovation, a discount should have been given. Instead, the price went UP over the weekend. We will not be back.

When I checked in I was asking why it was not disclosed that the property was under construction? The front desk person told me well, it's not going to bother you because you will be sleeping! The lobby was piled ceiling high with mattresses and shipping boxes from China. There were a big gaping hole in the roof of the carport ... I'm quite literally surprised that they were allowed to be open. First night (Friday) they were drilling at 9:21PM on the floor under where I stayed. They did come in my room during my stay but did not make the beds or change the towels so I am not sure what they did there. Breakfast was from 6-9AM EVEN on a weekend, i came down a little bit after 9 AM on Sunday and the drinkbar was locked and so was the are where they kept yogurt. The lunchroom was also full of big boxes with Chinese writing on them piled up around the walls in the eating area. It was a horrible experience and I will never stay there again. I was not the only Mizzou mom/parent who stayed there that weekend and we all had the same experience.

The place was updated and in the middle of a renovation. The one thing I didn't like was the old toilet. Everything else was up dated and this was missing a nut and it moved. I'm disabled and that was not good. But it was nice otherwise.

Slowly going downhill?
This used to be a very nice hotel, but it is becoming run down and in disrepair. Parts of the walls in the room were patched, but not repainted. The doors were very tattered. The paint job in the bathroom was sloppy with paint all over the door trim. Breakfast was fair, but the hours were short from 6-9 (used to be 6-9:30$ and they started tearing down at 9 am despite people still eating. That was not very cordial.

Could walk to the city park and around the large cemetery. Lots of parking Quiet and pleasant facility Somewhat difficult to reach location because of round-a-bouts and odd newish traffic patterns, but these can be mastered in the daylight when one can see the patterns. Convenient to the west side of town and mall unlike the places to stay on the far east side of town. Did not check out the pool.

We booked this hotel on a cross country trip based on location and 8.0 rating on Expedia. Check-in was fine but not very friendly or welcoming, but everything was ready for us upon arrival. Nothing appeared to be overly clean. Hallways were dirty and a looked like the hadn’t been swept or mopped in some time. Our room was on the interstate side and I was extremely noisy throughout our stay. I think the rating should be closer to 6.5.

Our room was filthy and had ants crawling in the bathroom. We brought it to the attention of the staff but we’re told that they couldn’t do anything for us because we booked through Hotels.com. My wife tried to call yesterday, after we returned home, and was basically told that hotels.com couldn’t do anything for us. Due to the high demand for rooms in Columbia, MO this past weekend we paid over $350 for this room and basically wasted it.

Disappointed with Management
The hotel needs serious attention from the management: the carpet on the stairs is dirty with big stains and is worn out. Rooms have ants and possibly bed bugs. I have taken photos of the carpet and of ants, as well as photos of myself showing bug bites that I saw a couple of hours ago. That is terrible! The front desk staff are nice and try to help, but the problem is more than they can handle.

I asked for a quiet room but got the I70 side and it was quite noisy. Old fridge, one charger outlet didn’t work, room smelled like it might have been a smoking room, pool looked skanky, mattress was soft and lumpy. Evening clerk appeared in my room and asked for my credit card. I was not going to just hand it over, so had to dress and go back downstairs to scan the card again. Was very disappointed that I was not allowed to bring my sick cat back to the motel from MU vet clinic but he died that morning so was a moot point.
