Homey Feel Just Minutes From Excitement

This home was perfect for our family. It has two tubs for washing kiddos and a beautiful master bathroom. It has a lot more rooms/space than it seems from the outside! The kitchen was perfect for cooking meals and was stocked with utensils. The bedrooms and family rooms had smart tvs for downtime, but with the location of this property, you won’t need them much! We were able to walk to fantastic restaurants in the Central West End area and it only took 15 minutes to drive to the cardinals game! Not to mention there is a Schnucks only a block away if you need any last minute groceries! The homeowners are very responsive and kind. The dishwasher was broken at the time of our stay, but the homeowners gave us a heads up and made sure there was enough soap and sponges for our stay. We will definitely be back!

Last minute rental was PERFECT

In town for a funeral, we needed a last-minute rental for our 2 families. The manager was very responsive and via text which is so much easier than through email or the app. The property was very well decorated and appointment. We didn’t lack for anything! Parking on the street was easy and if we need a rental in St. Louis in the future we will hope to return here!

Perfect location, great house

We stayed the weekend to attend a Cards-Cubs game. There were 12 of us, cousins and spouses, almost all late 50s to 60s. This house was really great. We especially appreciated the large dining room, which is where we hung out most of the time. Close proximity to lots of good (if slightly pricy) restaurants. Easy to Uber to the game. The house was really clean, very comfortable beds, great communication.

Group Vacation Hangout

Stay was nice, simple, and sweet. Highlights: We arrived early due to travel and avoiding storms. Texting the hosts was quick and easy for them to allow us to open up the door to get in early. House was in perfect condition and quick and easy to grab the garage door openers and park the car out back. We loved the large kitchen table to play cards and the layout of the bedrooms was perfect for our group of 5 adults. Easy to grab some food and groceries just down the block and access into the Central West End was also very easy. Great place to stay.

Disappointed

First night in one of the third floor bedrooms, my son and wife went to bed and discovered broken bed frame. I messaged my contact and was asked to send pictures then asked for a time for someone to come by and look at bed. It was an inconvenience to schedule day around someone showing up. The kitchen did not have a frying pan or any cookie sheets. It made making a dinner difficult. The basement floor needed to be swept. Dead bugs all around. Enjoyed the ping pong table but did not enjoy dead bugs. Only one garage door opener, was suppose to be two. We had 2 cars so it was an inconvenience. Asked for a credit to compensate for loss of a bed for 3 nights. I didn’t appreciate negiotaing via email and all communication felt like I was dealing with a robot. My credit was not what I asked for and I felt cheated. The house is located on the fringe of the CWE and out of the way. Every year I rent a place in St Louis to meet up with family. The credit and circumstances left me feeling cheated. I will look for another option next year.
