Very nice, hip hotel. Good rooftop bar. The area is the Delmar Loop which is a lot of fun - a small movie theater, lots of restaurants and bars, and the Pageant (performance venue). The Moonrise is right by a Metrolink station that can take you to the airport in one direction, or to Forest Park, Central West End, downtown, and east into Illinois in the other.
They'll be tearing up Delmar to install the Loop Trolley through the end of next year when it's scheduled to begin service.
