This property was not what we expected when we pulled up. It is an old office building that has been converted into rental properties instead of a single family home. The front door is an office door and this is one of 4 units all connected. You can hear a lot from the other guests staying in the unit next door. You are only separated by a thin door. The unit needs some TLC and did not feel completely clean. We were also missing some sheets. Donna however is very easy to reach and willing to help out with any need that arises. She is flexible with check out time and accommodated us well. A few simple upgrades could make this a great place to stay. There was plenty of room.

The Villa is in a very convenient location. The unit fit our needs as far as size goes but the place needs a little touching up. A good cleaning is needed-carpets cleaned, walls scrubbed, walls patched. We arrived to 1/3 roll of toilet paper with no replacements, no paper towels or napkins, no cookie sheets and only 8 forks for a 5 bedroom place. There was also no trash can in the bathroom which seemed a bit odd. These are fairly minor things and very fixable in my opinion. There also needs to be a more secure lock between units. We were able to go into the next unit with the turn of a knob. So, the place was ok for one night but we did have to make a trip to the store to buy toiletries, paper products and cookie sheets for our family get together which was a bit frustrating.

First of all this picture must have been taken a loooong time ago. I had walked into the 4 unit building, and heard dogs barking at 10 PM, the unit was dirty, there was a broken bed, the sheets looked like they hadn't been changed, in the hallway there was blood on the wall, and on the fridge there was stains as well as on the couch. My daughter has a horrible allergy to pets and the unit smelled like a horrible dog stench and bleach. I had guests come all the way from Germany to get this mess? Unbelievable! We called Donna and she showed up right away stating that she would fully refund me because the unit was dirty. Then she said that she called VRBO and said that she would only give me $1,000 dollars back, then she said she wasn't going to give me anything until I gave her hotel receipts. She also called me rude just because I confronted her about the unit being a mess. She pretty much ruined our vacation with this place and her problems. She tried placing us farther and farther than where we needed to stay. She eventually gave us a nice house that was really far away, but there was a few issues with that. I am medically not okay and due to the amount of stress Donna was putting me under, my sugar levels skyrocketed, and I had so many other issues. It cost me a lot more than I was budgeting for. All in all, it was a bad vacation for me and my family, the only one we've had in 2 years together. *KEEP IN MIND THIS SPOT IS NOT A HOUSE... IT'S A 4 UNIT BUILDING SO BE PREPARED FOR OTHER PEOPLE AND THEIR ANIMALS BARKING ALL NIGHT LONG*

Donna home was pretty awesome. She is a great host. Her home was conveniently located to everything and had plenty of space for my family.

The property was just as I expected. Everything was in order when we arrived after an 11 hr drive cross country. There was plenty of sleeping accommodations for our group, and great spacing for our surprise 50th birthday party. My Sister was TOTALLY surprised. The property owner, Donna, was very personable, yet professional! I was so pleased/impressed, that I introduced her to our party invitees! We had a wonderful time and couldn't have asked for a better place to host our event. I highly recommend that vacationers contact Donna before you consider other properties/property owners!I loved the fact that there was a Walmart, Chick Fil A, grocery store and other restaurants/businesses nearby. This made last minute event shopping very convenient!Signed: Happy St Louis Vacationer
