Quaint St Louis Home

A great little home. Great access to the botanical gardens and all other activities I had while visiting for a friend's wedding. Clean, modern finishes on an older home,and I'd absolutely stay here again.

Great Little Spot

Everything with our stay was great. Cute and comfortable apartment with all the needed amenities, and close to places we wanted to go. The off street parking was a huge plus. Great communication with the host during the stay.

We had a wonderful time in St Louis and this house made everything very convenient. We’ll need to get back there though since we didn’t get much tourism done, somehow we didn’t even explore the botanical gardens. The main purpose of the trip was for a wedding which was beautiful and fifteen minutes away. Actually it seemed everything was just 15-20 minutes away.

Convenient historic district near Botanical Garden

We walked to the Botanical Garden and found this VRBO very convenient. Bed was great, living quarters especially comfy, and all amenities we needed were available in the kitchen. Loved having garage parking.

Great location!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the Shaw neighborhood. We parked in the garage and didn't move.our vehicle until we checked out three days later. We walked to lunch/dinner, saw a show, enjoyed a festival in Tower Grove Park and toured the Botanical gardens. Loved the location and the home was convenient , clean and as described in the listing.

The area was quaint and established. We really didn’t see or hear from the landlord. The AC worked great.I don’t normally leave critical reviews unless there is something egregious to convey, so please remember the events of e week leading up to our stay.In the aftermath of the Charlie Kirk assasination, wefelt really uncomfortable with the fact that a very large rainbow flag and a yard sign supporting trans lives were prominently displayed at the entrance to the home. We believe in free speech, but we would have preferred to remain anonymous and instead were forced to endure a political display across the entrance during our stay.We also felt it should have been more honestly conveyed that the home didn’t have a second bedroom or bed. It was a small futon in the same room as the dining room table. We discovered this fact after arriving after midnight which left us few options.I feels awkward to leave this message having not met the occupants of the home, but felt they should know how it felt stay there under the circumstances.
