You can tell it was a school. It was gorgeous but definitely easy to get lost in.

Very clean and quiet property. We loved that it was repurposed from an old Catholic school and the theme was really cool

Checkin was effortless. Staff were always helpful. Parking was convenient. Room was extremely clean and bed was super comfortable. Hotel is an old Catholic School and it was beautifully re-architected into a hotel. Nice upscale restaurant (Graphite) connected to hotel.

"10 out of 10 would recommend."

10.0

The atmosphere of it being a renovated school was a lot of fun, and extremely well done. the room was plenty spacious, and extremely clean. All the staff we met were very friendly. This hotel is a must stay if you are passing through. Even if you are visiting St. Louis, it is worth the 15-20 minute drive to stay out of the city in the quaint little town.
