Comfortable

The neighborhood seemed a little run down and we were a bit concerned. However, once inside we were very comfortable. Nice, clean, and comfortable home with lots of space.

Family vacation

The house was clean and had all the amenities we needed. It was the end of June, so the third floor got a little warm but I would stay here again. Our family had a great time, the location was 10-15 minutes from the ball park and 5 minutes to Forest Park. The neighborhood wasn’t the best, but it looks like several houses are in the process of getting cleaned up. The hospital isn’t too far down the road, we heard plenty of evening sirens. Overall a great trip!

Bad Host Appliances Did Not Work..Host didn't compensate guests.

Clean home..when arriving the neighborhood was very sketchy. The home has nice decor nd was clean. Host didn't have a working fridge so all of our food nd medicine we needed to keep cold. The following day at 12 noon she offered coolers but never brought them. We waited until 3-4 nd no show. All of our food had to b thrown out. I contacted her later to come up with a solution. I asked if we could get what we paid for our groceries compensated nd she stop responding. She didn't take anything off our stay either. I took videos and picture and tried to respectfully handle the issue but she refused.
