Quality Inn O'Fallon - St. Louis - Shiloh

8/10 Good
"The front desk staff was wonderful. The room and bathroom were very clean. We were very disappointed in the breakfast. There were no eggs or meat, just a real continental breakfast. Other Quality Inns that we’ve stayed at have protein choices. We walked out and went to McDonald’s."
