We stopped in Collinsville to see the Cahokia Mounds (which are amazing, by the way!). As we looked at a brochure listing hotels in the town, we noticed that this 'Best Western' was the only one with an outdoor pool, so we decided to stay there. When we arrived, we found that the brochure's Best Western, on Ramada Boulevard, was... more

OK for 1-2 nights, max. The other reviews were both very positive and very negative, so we didn't know what to expect. We went down to Collinsville specifically to check out the "International Horseradish Festival". For 2007, this was a Very Small festival, but a great diversion to start the summer.

I phoned a day ahead of time, and when we got to the motel the walkways and steps did not look the cleaniness but I figured not big deal. We get to our room and the bed is not made and towels are on the floor. The carpet was dirty, it was a mess. I went back to the front... more

The rooms were extremely dirty and several of the rooms that we had... more

A great location: handy to the Interstate, to downtown Collinsville, and to the Cahokia Mounds. You can even see the St. Louis Arch from in front of the office. I had a comfortable, spacious ground-floor room, directly adjacent to the Denny's Restaurant. The price was attractive. The pool was nice. more

There are many choices of places to stay around St. Louis, and for those of you just passing through, I would recommend a stay at the Pear Tree Inn [Best Western] in Collinsville. It has easy access to the Interstate and there is a Denny's next door, so if the "free" breakfast doesn't interest you, you can have a warm... more
