This is a lovely home in a safe neighborhood. The house sits on a very quiet street. Ability to park 2 cars in the garage was a bonus! The backyard was really nice with a fire pit and outdoor chairs were also available. The entire yard was extremely well manicured.The house itself is just what the pictures indicate. It's equipped with everything you'll ever need! We loved everything about the house. Extremely comfortable and clean.Communication with the host was extremely easy and arrival/departure instructions were easy to follow. The location is wonderful! Close to so many St. Louis attractions, restaurants, casino's, etc. We would not hesitate to stay here again or recommend to friends and family. Book this stay! You will not be disappointed.
