Interesting location as it is on the campus of Washington University in St. Louis. The campus is beautiful and the building is also very well designed and nice. This would be a great location to host a conference or wedding. Truly nice venue. Close to Forest Park too.

Convenient

Knight Center is a wonderful place to stay if doing things at WU. Easy to use metro and/or Uber/Lyft, so you don't have to rent a car to get around the WU/UCity/Clayton area. Competitively priced with alternatives in Clayton.

Charged card, said he would credit, has not

The manager made a mistake with the credit card he charged and said he was going to credit it. That charge was last Thursday, it is now no longer pending and has cleared with no credit applied or refund that he noted.
