Amarillo, Texas is now on the Guest House map! :)
Our family had a great time in this historic neighborhood. We thought not having a stove/oven might be problematic but it wasn't at all - there were so many places nearby to explore we didn't miss cooking for ourselves. There are steep steps - the rooms are on three floors - but our 3 and 5 year old were able to handle them just fine. Everything was clean and ready for us when we arrived. The location is great to get on the highway for downtown but be sure to save time to explore historic St Charles and Main Street. (check the times for things - lots are closed Mon/Tues) We enjoyed staying at The Guest House, had quick replies to any correspondence from our hosts and will definitely look in to this, and their additional properties, for future visits to St. Louis.

Love This Home
We had a wonderful weekend in this historic home! We were greeted by a beautiful Christmas tree in the window!! When we walked in the home it was decorated ready for Christmas. The location is right in the historic district and is perfect to walk to shops and restaurants! I truly wish we could have spent more time in this special home! We would love to come back again!

Great place near Main Street
The Guest House is an amazing place to stay. Its location is central to the shops and restaurants on Main St. You can walk to everything! The house itself was very clean and provided us everything we needed for our stay. The hosts were very responsive to an issue that honestly was our own fault. T they were great to work with. We have stayed here before and the back patio is a great addition. We will definitely stay here again.

Exactly what We Needed
My son was playing college hockey at the Centene Ice Center, so my husband, my son’s girlfriend, and I all flew in to watch. The house was the perfect setup for us: 3 levels (so we hall had our own space), common areas that allowed us to watch movies when we were together, but with a door to the area that allowed us to work quietly if we needed, as well. It’s right near historic downtown and not far from the rink and casinos. Our hosts were fantastic: their communication and willingness to work with us. We didn’t know how long we’d be there because if the team won, they’d move on to play additional games.

Great location; charming home
This cottage beats a hotel any day of the week. There’s plenty of room, charming decor, and attention to details. Not to mention the proximity to everything old St. Charles has to offer. We’ve stayed here or at other cottages owned by the same company several times when visiting relatives in St. Louis and we’ll continue to do so.

Great b&b, awesome location
We were pleased to find this old, historical b&b very comfortable, clean, and pleasantly livable. The location couldn't have been better as we were able to walk to breakfast cafes, to shops, to the Missouri, to historical buildings, and to nice restaurants. Surrounded by ancient brick streets and buildings, we felt immersed in history. We would definitely go back!

Lovely little house
We had a great time staying in the little house. We were in town for a wedding and it was much better than staying in a hotel. We had our two adult children, two teenage boys, and my mother with us and we all felt we had plenty of room. My mom liked the little sunroom. The 6' tall boys would not have fit, but it was a nice size for her. The location is perfect. It is just steps away from cute shops and restaurants. We did notice the lack of an stove and oven (they are not listed in the amenities -I just didn't read it that close) so no late night cookies. Overall it was a great place for some quality family time.

Location is everything
Rental was smaller than I had imagined but functioned just fine for our 4 primary occupants for the long weekend. We had another couple who only planned to stay for one night who slept in the room with the day bed, which has a trundle underneath. I feel like if they were staying longer the arrangements would have seemed cramped. The house overall is super clean and all the linens and towels were fresh. There was a friendly little hummingbird that kept stopping by and a nest of baby rabbits in the yard that we noticed when we were hanging out on the patio. But for sure the best part of the house is the proximity to the shops and restaurants on Main St. This house is situated near the middle of the historic district, so everything is a short stroll away. Would rent again.
