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.

The location is great and overlooks a great neighborhood park. It is a good sized space with a full kitchen, had everything we needed for our stay. Plenty of towels and sheets which was great. It's an older house so the floors are squeaky but didn't bother us. We had a great stay.

Trip to St. Louis
We had never been to St. Louis so did not know the area at all. Did we luck out!! We stayed in the upper flat of this house in the most charming neighborhood!! It was such a lovely area and close to so many activities we wanted to do! Of note, we were located just off Old Route 66 so this added to our experience.

Great spot
This is a great property in a very nice neighborhood! It has plenty of room to sit and relax in several cool nooks, and all the essentials. There’s no problem parking on the street, a beautiful park across the street, and many shopping opportunities within a 5 minute drive. There are also quite a few very good restaurants close by. We’d happily return if in the area!

Don't reserve this property
We reserved & paid in January 2023 for Memorial day weekend. I messaged the property contact 2 hours before our arrival asking about check-in procedure. Property manager responded that they had no knowledge of our reservation. Called VRBO & spent 40 minutes explaining and proving reservation. Upshot was host would not honor our prepaid reservation & we had to find somewhere else to stay.
Stayed 4 nights in May 2023
Response from VrboOwner on Jun 14, 2023
The guest had every reason to be upset about her reservation, and my inability to accommodate her. Unfortunately, some kind of technical miscommunication occurred, because I NEVER received notification from VRBO about the reservation, and the property was occupied by other guests. Very sorry for the resulting inconvenience.

Quiet neighborhood. Lots of street parking in front. Across from a beautiful park with playground. Large living area for hanging out with family. Clean. Lots of linens and towels. Nice hardwood floors, a bit squeeky. Kitchen small and sparsely furnished for cooking. Luggage up the stairs to second floor so pack lightly. I have stayed here twice and definitely would go back again.

Great neighborhood and charming apartment
This apartment was perfect for our family of four. Both kids had their own sleeping areas and it helped give us a little bit of space, unlike a hotel. It was clean and had everything we needed and it was very homey and comfortable. The neighborhood is lovely - very quiet, really cool houses, and a beautiful (huge) park across the street. We will definitely be back when we visit our daughter who now lives in Affton. Thank you, Sue!

Great neighborhood that felt safe and was close to so many destinations. Not super peaceful in terms of noise with the many park goers at times and while squeaky floors don't normally bother me, they were rough with a sleeping infant. Unfortunately we found the beds and seating to be uncomfortable. Host was nice though and parking is plentiful!

Great Stay in St. Louis
I just finished an extended stay at this VRBO property and I couldn't have been more pleased. The accomodations were exactly as described in the listing and the everything I required for my stay was thoughtfully provided. The location, directly across from Francis Park, was an extra bonus. I was able to enjoy the view of this beautiful city park every morning from the apartment. Communication with Sue, the owner, was also responsive and easy. If you are wanting to visit St. Louis, and prefer a South City property, I can absolutely recommend this VRBO. You'll enjoy it as much as I did.

Beautiful location and such a cozy place for our weekend get-a-way! We were within walking distance to a few restaurants and local pubs and fratinized with the locals. Very safe neighborhood enticed us to enjoy the summertime weather. I never recieved the check-in or check-out processes through VRBO but that was easily rectified once I spoke with the host, Sue, who was very quick to respond to get us situated. If traveling to St. Louis again, I would very much enjoy staying at this property again!

Beautiful but the house is not all yours.
Beautiful but the house is not all yours. Our trip was excellent and the house was very beautiful. The neighborhood was great. We had great response from the house owner. I did not realize though when booking that somebody would be on the lower level the whole time we were there. The townhouse is a duplex with somebody living on the bottom floor. Other than that we enjoyed our stay we just were expecting to have the whole house to ourselves. There was separate entry and we had privacy.
