Katherine Dunham Museum Tours and Activities

The Cheshire Inn is a landmark in St Louis, so we wish it all the best. It has been ten years since we last stayed there and, in that time, the Cheshire has deteriorated. Our room was clean and comfortable, but the rest of the establishment was dirty--elevator, breakfast area and lobby. The breakfast was just okay and the coffee which is SO important was way too strong. It was near the strength of expresso. The coffee is Starbucks which leans to the more robust strength, but their coffee was beyond that. I prefer cream in my coffee but will drink it black. The only "cream" available was sweetened (first ingredient listed was syrup), The morning coffee in bed is a treat I look forward to when overnight at a hotel. That didn't happen at the Cheshire.
