This is in an old historic neighborhood. This has all of the old charm. King bed was very comfy. LR furniture was very comfy (nothing broken down). It’s on the 2nd floor, but it’s the entire 2nd floor, so no neighbors tromping up & down steps. Two separate secure doors entering from the outside for the 1st & 2nd floors, which I liked. We didn’t use anything in the kitchen other than the fridge & Keurig, assume stove worked also. We didn’t use second bedroom or the DR, but they looked fine. I’m used to sleeping with a fan for noise, so was very happy to see one in the closet! I was also a little apprehensive about street parking, but we always got to park right in front of the house. The area never gave me any bad vibes, felt perfectly safe. If you’re looking for sleek & modern, this apartment isn’t for you. But if you’d like to experience city living in an old historic home, close to the Soulard area, I think it’s a great place.
