Ivy Motel - Motel in St. Louis - 10143 Old Olive Street Rd, USA

They will lie. A lot. I mean lie lie lie to you. They will kick you out for no reason. Then lie about how. Follow rules. Don’t matter. Pay on time. Don’t matter. This is a terrible buisness. Don’t let me forget all keys are master keys. That’s right! Each room key opens all the rooms. Had a neighbor walk in twice on me.

Spare moment decision but very clean if you don't mind the burn holes on the comforter

I had a great experience for the money. Don't expect much - but it was clean, the toilet was full size, the shower was large (no tub), and they seemed to be on the ball. It was warm for my taste because the air conditioning only helped a little, and the room was a smoking room, and smelled of it. I didn't ask if they have no smoking rooms, so I don't know. It's cash only. I would stay here again.

It was satisfactory in terms of sanitation, and the AC was splendid too, making the room cold even in hot and humid weather. But the lighting was worrisome, as it was rather dark if all lights were turned off, and not to mention that my room was barely working in the first place. And the main reason for a 3-star rating is, its not a smoke-free environment, at least I didn't find any. I believe the other guest before me didn't find one either, because when I first came into my room, it was still fresh of cigarette smoke. All in all, you get your worth out of your stay, and that's adequate enough.

Pros: $40 cash only. Room was clean and shower was large. Microwave and mini fridge as well. Cons: No guests allowed, no phone in room, and check out is 10am. Still uses metal keys and owners are not afraid to turn you away for random reasons.

I recently have been staying at the IVY MOTEL with my wife for over a week. We chose IVY for its reasonable fee of $45.00 a night. On our final night we were surrounded and attacked by DOZENS OF BUGS!!!!! Our room #18 to be exact was infested , these bugs crawled out from the baseboards, door gaps, wall corners and were infesting the place at a really fast pace! Me and my wife had to shake out our shoes, duffel bags, and anything else that was close to ground level because the bugs had made their way into our overnight bags! So the next morning/today 6/29/19 at check out time I decide to approach the owners about the situation.....NEEDLESS TO SAY THEY WERE HIGHLY DISRESPECTFUL, VERY DEFENSIVE, CONPLETLY UNETHICAL!!! I politely asked the lady if I could be refunded and or given a free night in a different room, I don’t think after being grossed out by dozens of bugs that asking for reimbursement is impolite or not deserved!! THE OWNER SLAMMED THE GLASS WINDOW IN MY FACE AND TOLD ME TO NEVER COME BACK!!! In my opinion that response was completely DISRESPECTFUL,UNETHICAL, BAD FOR BUSINESS!!!!! I took photos of all the bugs the show the Saint Louis area or traveling Citizens the pure disgust of their establishment!

It's cheap. The people are brief, but nice. There are no tubs, only showers. If you want first class, don't pay economy prices. The price is great. Its in a safe part of town. I have no complaints.

I love the price, and you get what you paid for; but it IS one of the cleaner motels in the area, and they usually work with me on an early check-in time... but then they're also super strict about the weirdest stuff. Like they don't accept cards... or PENNIES!? Would still recommend to anyone in a bind, or just wants to hide out for a bit!
