Hampton Inn By Hilton St. Louis/Fairview Heights

Negatives: No fridge no microwave. Stink bugs in the room. The breakfast sucked.

Negatives: When I arrived after an 8 hour drive, I was told they had overbooked and they had no room for me. Within minutes, someone else arrived and was told the same thing, and then a 3rd, and then... No explanation was given, and the front desk dude couldn't even provide a refund or cancellation. We at first assumed that they advertised the room at a higher price (because of the 8 April eclipse) and dropped us, but previous reviews suggest that overbooking is this hotel's regular practice.

Negatives: No towels at pool I used the ones from the room. I asked for more on my way up and we questioned about why I needed them. Rudely. The bath tub did not drain. I was standing in my own water. Gross. The breakfast was not stocked. I asked for milk for my daughters creak and the lady snatched the milk thing out of my hand and refilled it. Didn't say a word to me.

Negatives: Where do I start... This hotel needs a total gut job and renovation. It is not clean and it smells. They try to mask the mold & mildew smell by pumping way too much artificial freshener through the HVAC system. You could barely breathe. The walls are so super thin you could hear the person in the next room snoring at night and everything happening in the hallway. There was mold on the ceiling of bathroom. There were visible large rat traps inside the hotel at the end of the hallway where the guest rooms were located. The free breakfast was offered, but after all the other issues, I chose not to partake. Overall, a very poorly maintained, not clean and stinky hotel. Chose another place to stay in the area if you can.
