Can hear other guests talking in rooms next to you, and walking over top of you. Very thin walls- paint chipping on ceiling in bathroom. Could use a makeover.

Overnight stay
I thought the hotel was slightly overpriced for a Best Western. Hotels.com showed an $85 price but i was charged $98. Otherwise, the hotel was good for a quick overnight stay. It was clean enough. We had plenty of hot water and a decent shower. Breakfast was average hotel fare. Parking was tight.

We were coming in late in the evening. I called ahead to let them know it would be after 10 at night. When we arrived at 10:30, the staff called me by name and asked how our drive was.

The hotel was clean and not far from SIUC. The breakfast was decent. It was an easy drive to Giant City and local wineries. The staff was eager to meet your needs. I would stay there again.
