Great location, comfortable place

This apartment was spacious and cozy with multiple places to sit to eat and visit and enjoy the view of Francis Park. It is in a Lovely neighborhood and the host is very responsive. The WiFi is not very good- weak signal but that’s the only criticism.

Great St Louis Location

The location of this property is in a very nice (safe) neighborhood and it is centrally located to get to the most popular St Louis activities in a short time. The beds are comfortable and there's plenty of seating for a group. The listing is accurate. We will stay here again!

Great location, clean property

We had another very pleasant stay at this property. It is spacious and clean in a historic home with a lovely view of the park that has good walking paths, pickleball and tennis courts, morning yoga and a fun gathering place at Rockwell Beer Garden. Great location and wonderful host!

Inviting

Sue was a gracious host. Her home is just that, it feels comfortable and inviting. The kitchen was small but had everything we needed. The fact that it opens up to the living room really helps. We will be back.

Wonderful Experience!

The property is charming, spacious with 2 gathering areas and 2 darling little reading nooks. The kitchen was well supplied. It’s a great location in a beautiful old neighborhood, very walkable and overlooks a wonderful park. Parking always available right out front. It was warm and cozy. Our delightful host was available to answer questions. We will be returning to St Louis and hopefully can stay here again.

Hot and Uncomfortable

For some context I was in St Louis for an event and it was July and very high temps. Fri I arrived in St L and went to the event first to set up as check in was not until 4. It was very hot and I got over heated so by 430 all I wanted to do was cool off. It was 84 degrees in the apt when I got there. I immediately turned the temp down but it was 100 degrees outside and it's an upstairs apt, it was not cooling down quickly at all. I left hoping it would cool down but that was not the case. At this point I'm starting to feel nauseous and had a headache. I did contact the owner and she said "Sorry if the upstairs isn't very cool. If you adjust the temp lower, it will eventually get cooler, but with a slate roof, the second floor is hard to cool down in 90+ days." Ok so if it is known that its hard to cool in higher temps, than have some other options or do SOMETHING before a guest arrives. There aren't fans in all the rooms to help air flow for example. All the towels and linens felt low quality and scratchy. The shower curtain was only a liner and sticks to you and at one point the rod fell down completely. The vents are on the ceiling and it drips on you above the toilet which was disgusting. The toilet paper was 1 PLY and the corner of the sink hits you in the back every time. There was some kind of pet dander that caused an allergic reaction and should have absolutely been disclosed on the listing. Not a place I would recommend or stay again which is unfortunate.

You cannot beat the location, right across from Francis Park and close to everything in St. Louis Hills My only complaint is the internet. The unit does not have its own internet connection, using the signal from downstairs.

Delightful stay

My husband and I really enjoyed our stay in this quiet, comfortable home. When we weren’t out enjoying antique shopping nearby we appreciated the lovely view of the park across the street. The neighborhood felt safe and it was pleasant to see so many walkers enjoying the quiet park. Lots of parking available in front or just steps across the street. We look forward to staying again.
