    Words can not describe the level of satisfaction and comfort. Once greeted by Sandy at the door we became fast friends and will look forward in spreading the great news with exceptional accolades affirmed! :) Many blessings to you Sandy! Cassie-St. Peters, MO.

    What a wonderful getaway. We only stayed one night, but the hospitality, delicious food and of course Sandy made our brief stay seem like a long weekend. We got lots of rest, good company, great food and delightful conversation. Sandy is a gem. Walk, no RUN to the Bittersweet if you are looking for somewhere to stay in St. Charles. P.S. The butter is worth the visit.

    Sandy Snyder is an absolute gem!

    January 20, 2013

    On a very busy day at The Bittersweet Inn Bed and Breakfast (1101 N. 3rd Street in Saint Charles, MO), we met Sandra Snyder, the chef and owner, who is an absolute gem. Sandy is someone who understands that being a good hotelier is as much an art as it is a science. We still have fond memories of our stay at the hotel, thanks to the courteous and professional service of Sandy. She took the time to answer our numerous questions regarding her antique furniture, places to eat near the B&B, but that was not the end of her effort. Then, she cooked for us a huge and delicious breakfast, and then served us herself, as if we were family. During our stay, we were delighted by Sandy’s sense of humor, stories, and in-depth knowledge of all the intricacies of running an outstanding Bed and Breakfast, something of a rarity in this self-serve era. Sandy clearly enjoys working closely with people and building strong bonds with her customers. When we travel back to St Charles, Missouri, again, we will definitely be coming back to The Bittersweet Inn Bed and Breakfast (1101 N. 3rd Street in Saint Charles, MO), again, primarily because of the high-quality service and attention we received from Sandra Snyder there at a very busy time of the year.

    My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Bittersweet. Sandy welcomed us and made us feel at home from the beginning of our visit until the end. The food was delicious, homemade, and so tasty! Would definately stay again.

    Loved It!!!

    August 30, 2012

    This was my first time at a B&B and I picked a goody. The room was comforatble and I felt right at home. The best part of this Inn is the owner. Sandy is a jewel, she makes a huge, tasty breakfast, and her personality is great. Loved her stories and had a great time. I will be back!!

    Just like home but better!!!!

    August 10, 2012

    My husband & I stayed there for two restful nights. Sandra was wonderful with info about St. Charles and eateries. It was quiet,spotless, and a breakfast you can't believe! Plus, she sat and talked with all here guests as if they were all good friends. If ever near St. Louis I recommend staying here.

    Come with an empty stomach!

    August 06, 2012

    My husband and I were touring the Hannibal and St Charles area, and stayed at the Bittersweet Inn for one evening. Sandra is a wonderful cook, and provided a huge variety of breakfast items. All were delicious, as I tried each one. Our room was beautiful and private. We had our own private bath as well which is important to us. If you want a homey atmosphere with your own personal cook, this is the place for you. We were not disappointed and Sandra, the owner, does everything she can possibly do to make your stay a pleasant experience.
