The location on the Washington University campus is enjoyable for walks and convenient to highways for easy access downtown or to Clayton and the county. The room was clean with nice bathroom amenities. Staff was very friendly. Fitness center was solid. The bar is also a nice onsite amenity. Small nitpicks: the coffee and breakfast could be better, and paying extra for parking in the garage is a little annoying, but the cost isn’t exorbitant.

The rooms are wonderful..because it is basically a conference center , the food service for guests is lacking. The bar serves a continental breakfast for 2 hours, and has no dinner service on weekends, thus no food available at all on the weekends. There is no coffee in the rooms but rather this pantry on each floor, where you need to go to get coffee. I’m not sure why they have this set up, but it didn’t work for me to have to go down 2 halls to get my morning coffee.
