No hot water. Bathroom. 2 toilets don't work. There were 2 signs in the front yard of the property that made our stay very uncomfortable saying "neghighbor hood is for neghighbors NOT renters. We felt unsafe.

Nephew's wedding

I believe the house is a wonderful home that was built in 1896, 3story on a quiet street. And is a short drive to the downtown area. We had a wonderful time and would definitely recommend this house.

Great house, great location

We came to STL for a short visit with family and to watch baseball and this house was perfect! It was spotless and the owner was very responsive. It was also about a 10 minute drive to the stadium, and a 5 minute drive to some great restaurants and parks. The neighborhood was very nice and we were able to walk to a playground and park very easily. Great for families traveling with kids.

Beautiful 1800’s home. Lots of charm for sure! Walking distance to several coffee shops, parks, Cardinal Lennon, St Louis University. Kitchen had some necessities that were much appreciated- sugar, coffee, filters, salt and pepper…. Overall an enjoyable stay.

Great “home base” for our family

We booked the house for our trip to a family wedding. Most people stayed in the venue hotel, but our side of the family wanted to share a place so we could spend more time together. We had a fantastic experience! The house is beautiful and has been nicely restored. The neighborhood is lovely and we were just minutes away from the downtown St. Louis wedding venue and event space. So thankful for the many happy memories we were able to make! Communication with the home’s management was also fantastic.

Someone was attentive about answering questions but not delivering on service. There was not enough silverware to eat a meal together, no coffee available, no crock pot or other kitchen tools, water pressure in bathroom was terrible. So disappointed that we spent so much money for so little. Only plusses were bed comfort and parking.

Replace Mattress Please

Property worked perfectly for our family Thanksgiving get-together. Only real problem we had was with the mattress in the first floor master bedroom. It was a disaster and needs to be replaced IMMEDIATELY. It has a big hump in the center and then sinks down on either side, had to sleep on about a 12" wide section at the edge. Otherwise a fun old house in a beautiful neighborhood, with a park nearby.
