I booked a last minute stay at this property thru Expedia. Once booked, I realized that I had booked for the following evening (thank you Expedia calendar for not making the current evening an option). Upon discovering this mistake (less than an hour after making the reservation), I requested cancellation of the reservation. Expedia says they requested the cancellation but the property would not respect this request. I am guessing that having the small amount of revenue my reservation generated them is worth me absolutely avoiding them every time in the future I may need a room in St Charles. Congrats Best Western! You'll never receive a dollar from me again!

Stayed here for a soccer tournament, and i would never go back, neither would I recommend it. This place was horrible. There was an awful smell as soon as you walk in, very outdated, rooms either have a musty odor to them or a cigarette smell. My room had dog hair all over the carpet, it was all over our socks our clothes, everything. Staff was not nice. Our bathroom even had mold, and sink wasn't working!
