Pear Tree Inn St. Louis Near Union Station
Our room was OK. Not horrible, not great. There were two pairs of shoes sitting in the hallway outside the elevator when we arrived Wednesday night, and we’re still there when we checked out Friday morning. A toilet plunger in a bucket sat in the hall for one full day across from our room.

Drury Plaza Hotel St. Louis at the Arch
Great place to stay in St. Louis. Great location - park your car and just walk to all the sites. (Wish the hotel would provide parking). The breakfast and 5:30 Kickback were great. All the staff we dealt with were great too. The kids really enjoyed the indoor pool and the balcony outside the pool ...

Clean room. Staff was not the best. Lady who checked us in was not very friendly and just read her script ...
