The pool was so cold that we couldn't swim, so, we tried the hot tub. Jets weren't working and there was clearly a bucket load of sand and debris at the bottom. Everything in the pool/spa area was filthy. All should be aware that they do NOT have an elevator. If you get a second floor room you are on your own to haul stuff up and down. In our room,

Front desk was friendly and helpful. Fresh towels and trash taken out daily but beds never made. All workout machines broken. Pool area clean and well maintained. Breakfast was restocked as needed, eggs, sausages, bagels, waffles, oatmeal and the basics, with outdoor seating. Plenty of parking. The hotel could be updated, such as TV, computer/desk, carpet and paint. Do not plan on working out! It is a really good basic hotel.

The staff was very friendly and helpful. The room, overall, seemed to be clean. However, there was hair in the bath tub and spider webs with spiders around the back of the commode. We were exhausted from traveling 14 hours and rather than reporting it, I took care of it myself. Otherwise, the room was okay but not worth what we paid for. We stayed in a Drury Suites the night before, the room was SO much nicer and was the same price.

From the moment we pulled up, the grounds were poorly kept and the sign needed attention. The hotel has the smell of deodorizer trying to cover smoke or mildew. The pool was unusable as it was so thick with chemicals it stunk and it was very cloudy. Same with hottub. Our room was fairly clean, but there was hair in the bathroom. Beds were clean and comfortable and AC worked well. There was a lot of road noise from the interstate. Breakfast was ok, everyone found something to eat.

I always have to go out in my pjs to get something from the breakfast room. People were very nice and morning manager or whomever was taking care of breakfast was very, very attentive and on task. Others I've stayed at had no food even 30 minutes before closure.

Staff was not attentive at all. Rose concerns that the TV, Microwave, fridge and half the lights didn’t work. Was responded to with I’ll let maintenance know. They then showed up almost 14 hours later as I was checking out and didn’t fix the problem and left. This did nothing to resolve this nor switch me rooms. That was after having to hunt down a person working because their person at the front was in back the whole time and not responding to calls the the desk. The hotel pool and whirlpool were also out of order. I don’t recommend this hotel very poor experience. Other nicer hotels, even the super 8 are available.

This was our 2nd stay at this property. It met our needs for the one night we stayed. The only complaints we have are the lack of hospitality shown by the young lady that checked us in. She seemed to be under the influence of something and definitely lacked people skills. Also, there is no elevator at this property. So, if you're on the 2nd floor, you have to lug everything up and down the stairs. Probably won't stay here again. 😕

No eggs or sausage gravy was cold. My daughter is gluten free and could not have anything there and I also need protein with my breakfast. Very disappointed. no one at desk when we left.

Convenient location in a beautiful spot on the Missouri river. The rooms were very clean. The lobby and staff were great. They even offer a bunch of snacks and drinks that you can purchase in case you get hungry! The continental breakfast was pretty standard fare. Tasty and well stocked. The staff was very helpful and kind. My only complaint was the shower drained slowly so you were standing in water if you showered for longer than 3 minutes. The sink and mirror being in the main room was also a bit new but whatever works! Definitely would stay here again.
