Came to St. Louis for a soccer tournament. Beautiful stay. Historical charm. Children enjoyed the game room downstairs and the lawn toys outside. That provided excellent downtime in between games. House had everything we needed. Comfortable beds. Large master bathroom. A pipe burst from the bathtub and leaked downstairs through the ceiling. Older, historical house - these things happen! Host responded immediately. Had a plumber out early next day and offered to reimburse the rest of our stay vs wipe the cleaning fee for the inconvenience, which I thought was very nice and fair. And I think speaks to their reputation of being a good VRBO host. Overall, I would definitely stay here again. It’s was lovely!

We had such a great stay! The house was everything the listing portrayed and had plenty of room for everyone to spread out. We were in town for the weekend with our four kids and two of their friends, and I can almost guarantee the games saved us some money. One evening we stayed in, ordered DoorDash for dinner, and just hung out playing games together, which ended up being one of our favorite parts of the trip.I was a little worried about interstate noise before we arrived, but it was actually much quieter than we expected. The hosts also provided sound machines in each bedroom, which was such a thoughtful bonus. The beds and bedding were clean and comfortable, and there were plenty of towels, toilet paper, and other essentials.The coffee bar was a huge plus, and I absolutely loved some of the original details of the older home, especially the stained glass windows. Check-in and check-out were both incredibly easy.We would definitely stay here again and would absolutely recommend it for families or groups looking for plenty of space and a comfortable home base in St. Louis!

The house was very nice and a great size for myself and grandsons to stay. It was located about 10 minutes from everything we wanted to do. The games were a huge hit with the grandkids!
