Saint Louis, Missouri
VRBO exclusive!!! This place is fully loaded. Local art, modern amenities and great location! This might be the smallest house from the outside but huge on the inside. The bunks are beyond the ships ladder. The couch has two fold outs. The basement has a garden setting and a laundry room for all of your needs. The mattress and pillow collections are top notch. The sheets are clean and the bathroom has a quaint size Jaccuzzi tub with shower and toilet paper!! Everything from hairdryers to ironing boards to soaps and more! Seriously fully loaded! The oven is perfect for pizzas or turkeys. The dishwasher actually washes dishes! The location is prime in this up and coming neighborhood close to downtown and everywhere you want to be. Sorry no locals and no parties. Security cameras are there for everyone’s piece of mind. Come stay in the fabulous fox park!!
Upon arrival couldn't get in contact with host to get in property. House wasnt cleaned and linens were on the floor. Told the host that I would take care of it. He agreed to give a discount meaning the cleaning fee would be waived. Booked more days to stay thinking monies would be refunded. Weeks later still no refund. The neighbor was caught coming out of the back yard and side of the house when asked what was she doing she looked shocked and kept walking. I had my fur baby with me so everyone I would let him out to use the restroom she would let her dog out and of course chaos came from the dogs interactions. Overall the house was amazing I would stay again but I need my refund.
Upon entering the space, the high ceilings invite you towards the loft rooms above. The exposed brick accentuates the eclectic artistic charm. The arcade game was very loud but functional. The garden suite downstairs was musty with a very uncomfortable bed on an uneven floor. There are plenty of sleeping spaces without using cellar garden suite which also housed the laundry which was so great to have. The downstairs was one space that offered separation of space. Everywhere else you can hear each other. The tub had some major issues, but the kids still were able to enjoy the jacuzzi function. With some updates to the bathroom and some thought put into the lighting, this place would be amazing. The homage to Nicolas Cage was fantastic and weird, we loved it.
The aesthetic of this place was great and the host was very accommodating in letting us check in early. Still, Very disappointed with cleanliness. Old dusty cob webs, very dusty, bath tub was not cleaned, there was hairs from previous renters. Another huge problem was the heat, the furnace kept blowing cold air into the place and all that was there was one space heater and the thermostat is locked. There were no extra thicker blankets either. We were freezing at night. The adults originally tried to stay in the basement room, bed was 3 inches off the floor, with a futon mattress that was very uncomfortable. It almost felt like the platform was broken. We decided to use the pull out the following night. Opened the pull out, the mattress was old and stained, very gross. No mattress protectors on any of the beds. Fridge was dirty, freezer needs to be cleaned out as well. Looked as something red spilled in freezer and has never been cleaned out. Finally they should be more attentive to light bulbs, batteries and the operation of things like the Mario game that was there. The video game was without directions and unplayable. I found 3 essential lights with burnt bulbs. A missing remote for basement TV and dead batteries in remote in living room. Also, had to do a hunt for a plunger. In other words the place looks great in pictures. The decorations were amazing and there were some comforts but not enough to recommend or go back too.
Honestly loved the property and look forward to staying again.
This was our absolute favorite place to stay out of any time we have traveled! All of the artwork and quirky decorations really made my family smile. It was clean and had everything we needed for our weekend. We will definitely stay there again.
