Royalty

Or as close to it as I'm ever gonna get.

Even though we experienced a few hiccups through out our get away it was balanced out by the wonderful hotel experience. I cannot say enough about our hotel, Hampton Inn & Suites @ Forest Park in St. Louis, MO & I feel I owe them a big shout out!!!

The customer service was exceptional. I honestly did not see one staff member without a smile & readiness to help. Not to mention we received tons of compliments on how adorable our girls were. What parent doesn't like hearing that?

As expected, while we were out, our house keeper cleaned our room. However, she also put a personal touch on it. She placed & arranged the girls' babies on the beds. Then she put a pair of the girls' sunglasses, that we had sitting out, on Gala's "rabby". The girls thought their toys had come to life & lived it up while we were gone. That put a huge smile on my face!!

Breakfast was awesome. Self serve, like most, but the waitstaff was wonderful. Right on top of everything. Maybe I just appreciated that because I wasn't the one doing the cooking. And I loved having Jimmy John's less than a block away. We walked down & enjoyed lunch there on the 2nd day. Plus 50 feet or less from the entrance was a pub, Highlander Pub & Grill, which I already told you about. I'm gonna say it again though, YUMMY! I had the St. Louis Steak Sandwich. It Was Awesome!

The best part, in my opinion, is the location. Having St. Louis Children's Hospital less than a mile n half away was wonderful. Plus it sits within walking distance of the St. Louis Zoo & St. Louis Science Center. The Science Center was literally 3 or 4 blocks away. We'll definitely choose this hotel again!!
