We enjoyed our stay for a long weekend in St. Louis for a family reunion. The location is great - we were just minutes away from several tourist spots we visited such as the Arch, Grant's Farm, City Museum, and the Dome. One concern our group had was if it was a safe area. When exiting the interstate from the south, the area of town seemed a little rough, but this neighborhood was very nice with historic charm and did not feel unsafe. We had children ranging from 17 to 5 and we never had to worry about their safety. The home was clean and while there were definitely some creaky stairs or doors, that just added to the charm of the older home. The only complaint is in regards to the carport area. There is a dumpster located right next to the carport in a tight alley and it is extremely difficult and tight to park a vehicle in this location. The garage easily fit two vehicles though, but it was easier otherwise to just park in the street for the other cars. Everyone agreed that this place was a hit for our stay, and we'd certainly consider staying again if we're in the area.
