This in an older property kept in good condition. Hotel is clean with friendly staff. Excellent daily breakfast. Excellent location in St. Charles and close to everything. Downside: The furniture inside the rooms (i.e chairs, desk, etc) are very old and needs to be replaced.

Everything was great: we were only staying one night and had no issues. Overall could probably use some updates but it wasn’t anything that truly bugged us or caused an issue!
