Wonderful stay in Shaw neighborhood

A group of 5 of us stayed here for the weekend to celebrate a 40th birthday and had a wonderful stay. The house was beautiful, beds were comfortable, and everything was very clean. The location was also great, with food/activities/shops all a short drive and some small cafes were walkable. Highly recommend!

Everything was clean. Available parking was so helpful given limited street parking due to construction. Area was cute. Felt safe, which is great in STL. The host was flexible and exceptionally communicative. The beds and pillows were firm and comfy. The upstairs rooms were a tad warm but there were notably multiple ceiling and standup fans available to help with that. We used the lodging to prep for our wedding and take first look pics.

This was an okay place to stay. It accommodated our party just fine. Communication with the host was excellent. We visited during an extremely hot weather period and the upstairs bedrooms (2nd and 3rd floor) just could not keep up and cool. It’s understandable but somewhat miserable to sleep in. Of note, the stairs are narrow and steep. If mobility is an issue for anyone staying here I would not recommend this house. Parking was good. No problems with that. Check in and check out was easy.
