Breakfast was to suppose to start at 6:30 and there was only eggs, cereals, and gravy. The pastries several packages were open in case, and an open carton of milk in the cooler. The security latch was missing off the door. The joining room door in our room wouldn’t lock.

I stayed at the Best Western in Hannibal for 2 nights, Wednesday 7/23 and Thursday 7/24/25. I was working in the area and this worked out perfect. The Front Desk Staff was Friendly, Wendy in the evenings and Mary in the mornings. It was a pleasure for them to greet you when you came in and left. The Room was Clean and Slept well. There was plenty of hot water and the beds and pillows slept Good. Thanks for the enjoyable Stay!!

The Best Western in Hannibal is a nice hotel but expect to pay $200 total for a night. Check-in is not a minute earlier than 2:30. Conveniently located one block away from the Samuel Clemens boyhood home. The complimentary breakfast is typical with scrambled eggs, sausage, biscuits and gravy. The indoor swimming pool is adjacent to the lobby. I would stay here again if in Hannibal.

This was the worst place I have stayed at. First you walk into the lobby with the strong smell of chlorine from the pool, right there. then everything was very outdated. Room, lobby, parking access. Pillows and bed coverings stained. Chair had stain, Ice bucket, had no tray under it to catch water, so water puddled on desk. Vent in wall was filthy. Bathroom tub and shower were dirty. I will never go back, and am planning another trip to Hannibal in the future.

the location is what made this place. the gym and breakfast where fine...the internet for work was too. but it was a matter of a couple blocks' walk to get to town where all the restaurants/bars are and of course Mark Twain's boyhood home. they want 200 characters before I can submit.......... . .
