We absolutely loved our stay! It was a very cozy, welcoming little apartment above a cat cafe! There is so much to do on main street; enough to keep you occupied for a few days. Everything you need can be reached on foot. The only thing that threw us off was the late night activity of the bar directly across the street. Just be aware that Friday and Saturday nights (mostly Saturday) can be noisy until the bar shuts down. Other than that, everything was perfect!
The loft was comfortable for 2 - 20 stairs up and down. A convenient location for visiting our daughter and her family. We enjoyed Main Street shops, St. Louis zoo and the Butterfly House.
We loved this little studio apartment above Main St! Parking was easy as was entry into the apartment. Nice furnishings, clean shower, small kitchenette area and TV space. Our only negative was limited bath towels that were thin and small. We would definitely stay again and thank you for being a dog-friendly property!
Felt safe in area. Parking fairly easy & free. Young area with some wkend noise & band. Steep flight of stairs to climb to 1st level & step was narrow. Use railing & don't take too much on way up/down. Bed was the Best I've slept in. Very comfy. Clean except for a few cob webs @ high ceiling point. Communicates well & quick. Cost was well worth it. Would stay there again.

Not good
My wife and I love to stay at St Charles and try new things. We had always wanted to stay on the Historic District but we will probably change that mindset after this experience.
First, the price is not worth what you get for the money. There is nothing that was misrepresented by the listing but it is the worst of what they say, not the best. They say “noise” but it was unimaginable. The listing is right across from a bar so the noise involved lost of yelling, cursing, etc… until 2 am.
Parking is an issue as well. Yes they say “street parking” but it is hard to find a spot close enough. Which means you are carrying your luggage quite a ways to the location. Plus there are signs stating a two hour limit for parking.
Cleanliness was an issue as well. We found a chicken bone on the couch when we arrived. There are black spider-webs above each window—not sure how long they have to be there to turn black. I walked across the hardwood floor in my bare feet after a shower and had tons of stuff on the bottom of my feet. For an extra $150 in service fees, I was expecting more.
There is a window in the room the looks out to the stairwell. It lets in way too much light from the stairwell when trying to sleep.
Overall, the worst experience at a stay in this area that we have ever experienced to date. I guess if you were doing a “bar crawl” then the location would be perfect. On a positive, we did have trouble with the TV and they responded by text right away.
My wife and I stayed for her birthday weekend and had a great time. The property is located at the end of the strip so it was perfect to start the bar hoping. The apartment was very cozy and clean. Definitely recommend for the quick get a way!!

Hoping this is internal private feedback because I'm writing to help. I love the location. Of course, noise can be an issue. Here are some things I would fix that caused issues for me:
1) AC standing unit is extremely loud when it cuts on. It woke me up every time and I turned it off
2). Expensive fix but shower is tough for a big guy. Locking front sliding door probably keeps things dry but requires climbing in and getting wet to start water so it can get cold.
3) Blinds are too short for Windows so open to street from bathroom and bed.
4) if there is a way to make codes available via VRBO app, it would be good. I couldn't find my email with the door codes and had to search for a while to figure out where to get it.
I hope that helps.
Right in the center of historic Main Street. And historical buildings is just a part of the fun. Unique shops of all kinds. Super food. Good nightlife & music. You also have a wide view of the Missouri River (beautiful scene). Take walks along the Katy Trail and Frontier Park (learn about Lewis & Clark). You’ll have an amazing time.
This property was charming and within walking distance to a number of restaurants and pubs. Jeff was easy to connect with and the checking were appreciated. There are a set of steep steps going in, which were reasonable to navigate however as someone who uses a mobility aide it would have been beneficial from a rail or grab bar toward the top landing.
Easy reservation process, Jeff the host was great to work with and communicated easily and quickly, property is an excellent location and very clean. I highly recommend this property.
This is a great space for two people! Comfy king size bed, living room area, kitchenette, plenty of towels and coffee in the morning. The host had a welcome sign waiting for us with our names on it. Great location on Main St close to bars, restaurants and shopping. We even parked right in front of this cozy apartment. The host was quick to respond to any questions we had.
We stayed here last summer to visit relatives. We were so glad this rental was available this summer. We would rent this property again!!
