21C Museum Hotel St Louis
Hotel was very quiet and staff helpful and courteous. The coffee shop was great for coffee and breakfast and the rooms were clean with hot water and great water pressure. The only thing I would change was the mattress - bed was very firm, kind of felt like lying on a table. Gallery was a fun feature ...

Magnolia Hotel St. Louis, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel
Everything was great, except the rooms are without microwave. I went to the 8th floor and a homeless man was using the microwave. Not safe to go alone. The issue is not he was homeless, it was that security was not with him
