The West End
Room was clean, facilities were clean, parking was good. Downsides, needs more furniture in the room. A dresser, and possible a sitting chair. Hot water could be a littlw faster so not so much is wasted.

Hotel Indigo St Louis - Central West End by IHG
The room was great and so was service levels. For a reimagined former Holiday Inn, I thought everything was great as Hotel Indigo.
