Hill Retreat: Rustic Charm w/ Balcony

The vrbo was great

Clean. Had everything I needed.

Beautiful place in the heart of the Hill, sooo convenient to local bakeries and restaurants and coffee shops. I can’t recommend this place highly enough!

Great spot in a perfect location! Could use some towel hooks and an updated pull out sofa mattress, but overall would return.

Great location. We stayed in the upstairs unit and for the most part was very nice. The things that could be improved on would be general upkeep and maintenance. I noticed the main door handle coming into the house was loose. The toilet was wobbly and needed to be secured to the floor and the shower trim was coming off the wall. The door that closed to the bedroom also needed to be adjusted because it wouldn’t close properly. Last, the kitchen could be stocked better as far as cookware and glasses.

Amazing location, adorable condo with a few issues. This location is amazing if your primary goal is to stay in a safe, quaint, walkable neighborhood with lots of Italian restaurants and shops. This neighborhood focuses around the Catholic Church, which rings their bells at 6 AM and ends around 9 PM. I thought it was lovely but it was very loud across the street. Monday mornings are very loud in this neighborhood as well starting around 5am. Very easy drive to everything St. Louis has to offer. Now the not so great, which I sent to the owners of this VRBO a week before posting this to address anything and they have not. Several dishes were very dirty with food still caked on them, the right hand door walking into the bedroom, doesn’t work, there was no way to create any privacy from the pull out couch in living room, there was no top sheet, pillow cases or blankets for the pullout couch, there was only two small towels originall,, they brought 2 more, there’s no light shade on the fan in bedroom and there’s no light shade on the lamp next to the two chairs area, there’s no dimmer lighting just the bright overhead lights in the kitchen and living room area and is very bright at night. The TV and remote has some kind of issue it’s delayed and doesn’t work half the time and is the only one. There is literally no sound barrier in the stairwell from downstairs to the upstairs and the sound carries up. I could hear the entire conversation they were having downstairs clearl

We enjoyed everything about our stay here. The apartment was clean and nicely decorated. The hosts were in contact with us often and were very accommodating. This house is in the middle of the Hill neighborhood. It is across the street from the Catholic church. The bells ring on the hour starting at 6 AM. (That might be an issue for some people - Just be aware) Across the street was Vitale's bakery. They had amazing baked goods. We tried the cannoli and cream horns. Both were amazing. You can walk from the house to at least 8 or 10 different restaurants, including Marconi Mercata, Zia's, Mama's, Cafe Dolce, and more. If you want to explore the Hill, this is a great place to do it from.

This is one of the nicest places I've yh. Would definitely stay there again. Jeff was very attentive and responded quickly when i had a question. You wont be sorry if you stay here.
