Great location!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the Shaw neighborhood. We parked in the garage and didn't move.our vehicle until we checked out three days later. We walked to lunch/dinner, saw a show, enjoyed a festival in Tower Grove Park and toured the Botanical gardens. Loved the location and the home was convenient , clean and as described in the listing.

Convenient historic district near Botanical Garden
We walked to the Botanical Garden and found this VRBO very convenient. Bed was great, living quarters especially comfy, and all amenities we needed were available in the kitchen. Loved having garage parking.
