Space & Luxury in Central West End + Private Parking + Excellent Location!

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay at this home! The location was perfect, with easy access to all the attractions we wanted to visit in St. Louis while still being in a convenient, family-friendly area. The home was very clean, comfortable, and fully stocked with everything we needed, making it feel like a home away from home.Traveling with kids can be challenging, but this house was a great fit for our family. There was plenty of space for everyone, and it made a great home base after busy days exploring the city. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to other families visiting St. Louis!"

"Parking was behind a large mechanical gate which did not always work. Could sometimes be noisy outside in the evening due to college clientele. Had to park on the street most of the time because of gate issues."

"Wonderful location to explore all of the Central West End. Had a wonderful weeklong stay."

New Condo Near Barnes Hospital & WashU Med - King Bed + Free Parking

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent place. First floor in a quiet building. 2 blocks from the Cortex and its MetroLink station. I took the rail to a soccer game and baseball game downtown and walked back at night without seeing a single person—I felt very safe, and I know the reputation St. Louis has. I lived there for 10 years and went to SLU. Walking distance to SLU. A number of restaurants and cafes in its proximity. Same block as the Silk Road market if you need quick food shopping, a couple more blocks to a full size grocery store. Kitchen, bathroom were great. Very comfortable king size bed. I will definitely be back. I stayed a week after SLU let out for the summer, not sure if that would change how peaceful it was. I didn’t have the chance to check out amenities nor did I require parking since I used MetroLink."
