The property is well maintained, clean and quite modern in a great location of St Charles. Communication with the manager was outstanding and effortless. My one complaint is that the property is DIRECTLY above a nightclub/bar which is glaringly absent from the property listing/description. That omission should not be a listing omission as there was excessive noise until 2 AM in the morning.

This apartment is in an outstanding location in downtown historic Saint Charles. It is very clean and the host communicates very well. I would recommend this for people looking for a location in an area where there is an abundance of shopping, food, and nightlife. It is located directly above a bar, so manage expectations when it comes to noise and ambience.

Nice Place

It was nice place clean tidy and well renovated. The place is over a bar and I probably missed that in the description. We had a small baby and the music and sound in the living room was fairly substantial. Now this may not be typical and no fault of the owners, but something to be aware of. Once on second floor in bedrooms the sound was lessoned. If was just an adult trip with friends place would have been better fit.

Great stay in St. Charles

The property was exactly as described. The location was great (right downtown). We were right across from and next to a bar. It wasn't too loud for us, but it was noticeable. If TV was on, it was fine. There are no TVs in the bedrooms. We had no problem with parking or check-in. Host was always very responsive. Plenty of bath towels but no washcloths and only one hand towel. Would definitely recommend this location if wanting to explore the historic area of St. Charles.

Quick trip to St Charles

Lovely place. Lots of stairs. Right in the middle of the nightlife. We had a great time. I don’t recommend leaving once you park. People fill up the spot. They don’t care what the signs say. We had to wait for someone to leave. Otherwise the apartment is great.

Reviews were misleading - disappointed

I am 100% a person who relies on reviews when selecting a rental. And I hate to give a bad review. This one looked good via reviews but I was very disappointed. The unit wasn't clean. There was exactly 1 hand towel in the entire apartment. No bath mat, the shampoo/soap dispenser in the shower was broken, there was a bar of hand soap but no soap dish in the bathroom so it sat and dripped all over the vanity. No kitchen towel to dry hands. Listing noted a keurig so we brought pods to find out a previous renter had broken it. So we had to go buy coffee grounds after we arrived. There was hardly any toilet paper. We actually ran out on our last morning there which wasn't good for 4 women on a girls weekend. I travel a lot and rent vacation rentals all over the US. There's a difference between someone who cares about their rental and the clients experience and someone who is strictly in it for the cash. A few suggestions - put protective mattress pads on the beds. Add some luggage racks in the bedrooms as there is nowhere to put a suitcase. Change the AC filters. There was a funky smell in the unit. Add some towels! Provide a bath mat and maybe some soaps and lotions procured from some local shoppes! There are plentiful options. Get a good cleaning crew. Add a shelf in the bathroom so you have somewhere to set clothes. And warn people that its above a bar with very loud music until at least 1am. Upstairs in the bedrooms was tolerable for noise, we all slept fine.

Great, Cozy stay.

Great 2 bed apartment in the heart of main st. Be aware there are a lot of stairs. Unit is above a bar that can be a little loud at night. The bedrooms and bath are on the 2nd floor of the apartment up steep stairs. Very well decorated and has a lot of charm with the brick walls. Host was great to deal with when we couldn't locate the parking pass. One was delivered the next morning.

Great overnight stay, but nightly club music is a small issue.

This is not the owner's fault, but we didn't realize historic St. Charles has restaurants that also operate as "club-like" environments. We had come back from a concert ourselves at 11:30. We were hoping to come in, shower, and get a good night's sleep, but the restaurant/bar directly across the street had loud, thumping music, which banged off our bedroom windows until 1:30 am. We tried turning up the fan to drown out the sound, but nothing worked. It was overly loud. We looked out the window, and there were lots of people partying and the cops were below. Other than that, it would have been a great rental. We didn't even mind all the steps as we are pretty athletic people. :)
