My wife and I decided to take a weekend jaunt to St Louis. Been great until a few hours ago. In a hotel near Forest Park and it has been wild chaotic teenage noise all evening. It continues. Both rooms on either side of us are a freaking zoo. We along with neighbors have asked multiple times for them to be quiet. The level goes higher. Hotel management and security have been up here too. I'm about to call the cops. My last visit I was flipped off, cussed at and mooned. Seems to be rooms full of teens with no adults. I'd just pack the family and leave but that's easier said than done with a baby and 2 yr old. I can't believe the total lack of respect... I'm about to give this a shot with security one more time. If that don't work...well, I guess we'll see  |

That’s what’s wrong with today’s society No discipline the whole nation lacks it they expect  to be given to them this generation and their parents are so far gone it’s pathetic , they have no clue how to work how to earn anything and they all lack respect they need discipline back in the schools at home and in lock up |

Just got WiFi back here. What a night. I tried a friendly visit one more time and that seemed to make matters worse. So my wife and I laid fuming. I grabbed my derringer (not intending to use it but it made me feel better). And now at 3:34 am I headed to the room next door. My wife sensing something not good stopped me and she headed back down to the desk. That made things worse I guess because now we had total insanity break out on both sides of our room. I don’t know what time it was but a lil later I went into total fight mode. Grabbed the derringer again and started for the noisiest door. Meantime, my wife went back to the desk knowing something bad was about to happen! As I reached the door another guy, I’ll just call him Griz because he was about 6’7” or so came from the other side! We both pounded on the door with a fury! I guess our thought was to wake up the remainder of the hotel and put this to a stop! Or simply, after all hours of craziness we just weren’t thinking straight!
Once again we were cussed out and basically informed, “Weez can do whats we wants cuz it New Years Eve!”
I made some comment about I was gonna make some noise they’d never forget. And around the corner came my wife with security and the desk manager (a black woman of some size with a whole lot of fight in her eyes)! I guess in the chaos, other guests had called and this turned out to be the 3rd strike! The woman had no more patience and she handled the whole situation from that point like a pro! She kicked all of them out.
At this point I was content to watch things play out! So by 6 this morning things seemed to be back to normal except they lost internet. Finally back on. Now...
I have no idea why I decided to start this post in the middle of the night! Guess I thought it might help me vent and cool off!?
Whatever, I learned a good lesson, never underestimate the power of a woman once she’s had her trigger tripped!!
And it’s probably not a great idea to spend a night in a hotel on New Years Eve!

You have way more patience than I do. Realizing it's New Year's Eve, by 1am someone would have called the police. And possibly an ambulance.

I can second the recommendation for the McCormick's Creek State Park.
Wife and I spent our first night as a wedded couple there, 2/19/'65, and stayed in the same room again 2/19/'15. Peaceful and quiet (especially the second time).
We did run into a situation somewhat similar to the one you describe about ten years ago on a trip to western MI to meet the kids coming over from their home in the Deroit area to visit the Tulip Festival at Holland. Turns out it was also prom night, and the local motel rooms are often rented for some anything-goes, dusk-to-dawn festivities. We were well away from the rooms where the parties were taking place, but there was frequent noisy travel in hall, and the fire alarms sent everyone in the place into parking lot twice in the wee hours while the local FD checked everything to make sure it was a false alarm.
We don't travel very much any more, but I made a note to try to reserve a room in a quiet small motel or a B&B if we were ever gonna get caught out at that time of year again, especially near a metro area of any size.
