Neighborhood is very close to downtown sights and WAY MORE ROOM vs. hotels for same price point. With that said it IS in an URBAN setting and comes with the good-and-bad of the urban setting: like requirements for enhanced security, you can hear neighbors conversations, you can hear people racing their cars around the neighborhood in the middle of the night, etc.
Nice touches by owner in this VRBO. It does feel ‘home-like” and great place to decompress at the end of a day of STL sightseeing and exploring.
