Convenient location for STL and Illinois activities and events. Easy parking, plenty of room inside for families, and great with or without dogs. During our stay they had individual AC units in the upstairs bedrooms to ensure guest comfort. One threw an error code on our second evening, but our kids made the most of the excuse to build a pillow and blanket fort in the living room. The beds were comfortable and we had multiple people shower in the morning without running short on hot water. It is a historic home with a few imperfections, but wonderful character and a great overall value. I would absolutely stay here again and I recommend it for anyone looking for a place in STL.

Great location and had everything that we needed! Thank you for a wonderful stay!

The home was beautiful host was very accommodating. Neighbors were great home and yard need a good deep clean

Overall we were happy with the rental but some simple investments would make me more excited about a return visit.Pros:- The owner was friendly and responsive, best bet is to use VRBO's messaging system.- Location is fantastic, and it seems like a nice quiet neighborhood. So many fun locations are within 10 minutes.- This house has a lot of character!- Beds are comfortable and seem fairly new. But they are firm, if you are not used to that it might be an issue.- Main floor is pretty spacious, I think there could even be more seating than there is.Cons:- The house was overdue for a deep clean to get dust out of corners, woodwork, etc. We had to clean a couple things ourselves (toilet and stove) that we weren't expecting to.- Outlets are a real headache that would be easily solved. In most cases to plug in your phone chargers, etc. you will need to move furniture and unplug a lamp. One power strip in each room would go a long way.- Bedroom dressers and bathroom racks did not feel clean - these could use a deep clean or replacement.Other thoughts:- Where I'm from it's not typical to wear shoes/slippers indoors, but you'll need to here to keep your socks clean.- The house does have a fenced in back yard that could potentially be a cool place to hang out but there's not much back there currently.Overall I think the price is fair and nothing was a major surprise considering the age of the house. With some quick upgrades I think this could be a top tier rental.
