“Best Western Plus The Charles Hotel strikes me as a practical choice near I-70, blending functional amenities with a convenient location for families and business travelers. I see value in the inclusive breakfast and the indoor pool, which create a relaxed atmosphere, despite some reports of inconsistent service and dated rooms. While not flawless, its pet-friendly policy and proximity to attractions like the Ameristar Casino suggest a solid base for exploring Saint Charles.”
