Hampton Inn & Suites Clayton/St. Louis-Galleria Area
We got upgraded which I thought was awesome but we had those Japanese Beatles in our room. They did offer to change to a smaller room so we just decided to flush them as we found them. Probably like 20-30 total. But for the warmer weather in St. Louis I guess that can be expected.
