Location is excellent on the main drag of town, and the parking is super easy. The hotel is historic, with preserved interior hallways that are really nice.

Stayed here for a business trip. Clean and spacious hotel room with a decent size gym (about 5 treadmills, 2-3 ellipticals, 2 weight machines, some hand and bell weights, small mirror and some mats) and a restaurant. They also have a computer and printer for business documents in case I need some last minute printing. They have several lounging chairs on the first floor lobby. And they have a small market for essentials. The location is in downtown and within close walking distance to a number of good restaurants. The staff go out of their way to welcome us and ask us if we need anything. I’d recommend this location and come again!

Destinee is an absolute champion of customer service. I have stayed here many times and had an error in my booking arrangement. Destinee stepped in, remembered me by name and made my error seem worry free. When I arrived she was eager to help. This hotel is incredibly fortunate to have talented employees like her that add the extra touches to the stay! That is why I stay here a few times a month on business!

Service is excellent, always super friendly and helpful. I am a traveling physician working in Cape, and look forward to my stays here. James at the front desk has been one of the biggest reasons I come back time and time again. He needs to be manager. He knows all the frequent stayers names, always remembers their preferences and always above all else executes. He is awesome. Rooms are incredible and huge the gym I wish was a bit bigger but still good enough for a hotel gym.

Best hotel in downtown Cape Girardeau, close to a handful of restaurants and stores. Plenty of parking, clean, very well decorated using the good old and beautiful structure of a former bank.
