Great location and safe neighborhood right next to the Botanical Gardens. Easy to get to all downtown STL activities. Apt could have a few more amenities like shampoo, etc - but otherwise clean and comfortable for a family of 4.

Cute, Neighborhood Spot

The place was easy to get into and was exactly as described. We enjoyed staying in the neighborhood and stopped at several nearby restaurants and cafes: Sasha's Wine Bar (lovely outdoor patio), Damn Fine Hand Pies (so yummy that we went twice), Fiddlehead Fern Cafe (coffee shop at the end of the block). The mid-century modern decor was nice, but the couches aren't exactly ones to sink into. That and the not super strong water pressure would be my only critiques. Overall, a great place to stay in STL that is centrally located to anything you'd want to see. We had a lovely Spring Break.

Amazing property and location!

We were extremely impressed with this property and its central location. We were within 10 minutes of the places we visited: the Botanical Gardens, the Arch, and the Budweiser plant tour. We had one question during our stay and the homeowner answered our message to him within minutes. We highly recommend this property and homeowner!
