Best Value Inn

8/10 Good

"I was a little hesitant about staying here - but for a budget friendly motel on a parents weekend, with limited choice, I have to say, i was pleasantly surprised. Most important for me was the cleanliness of the room - it was very clean, modern and enough space. The bed was comfortable, the staff / owners were super friendly. Its right next to a Pancake place so could roll out of bed and have a decent breakfast. About a 30 min walk to Kirkwood which was perfect for our stay. It got the job done - and cleaner than some of the other chain hotels that i have stayed at in Bloomington!"
