Catherine was an excellent host!! She was extremely welcoming and helpful with questions about the area and directions. The location was easy to access and for getting to the River City Casino. The house was amazing!! Beautiful updates and remodel throughout. Loved the privacy of our bed and bath as well as the easy access to the kitchen and other amenities. The pool was phenomenal and extremely relaxing, made it hard for us to leave on time :) Loved our pancake breakfast with mimosas. Will definitely return when we come back to St. Louis and would recommend to anyone traveling to the same area. Thanks for the great stay!!

Ok-this place is AMAZING!! To start with, the house is beautiful. The owner has totally redone everything and it is designed from top to bottom. The rooms and grounds are beautiful and everything is fresh and new. Loved it! Next, the owner, Catherine, is as cool and genuine as they come. My only wish was that we lived closer to each other-I think we would be friends. She opened my wine and gave us towels to swim, and then cooked us a lovely breakfast before we left. She is a gem and is beautiful inside and out. Lastly, if you have any event to host and live even remotely close, this is the place to host it. This house is as cool as it gets, and yet has all the intimacy of a small boutique hotel. It would be great for a small wedding, conference or cocktail party. It had everything working for it. This home/stay would be a great deal at twice the price. STAY HERE!!!

Third times a charm. Another A+ stay.

I can't say enough about how delighted I was to stay at Cathy's house. It is so much better than the pictures and she is a very wonderful host. She made me feel right at home in her beautiful house, I wish that every time I had to go-to Saint Louis I could stay at her house.

Catherine is super nice, prompt responding/initiating communication. Her house is in a nice neighborhood, modern and spacious. Strongly recommend.

Catie made us feel very welcome. Fantastic home better than shown on the pictures. Very clean and comfortable.Wonderful swimming pool and she help us utilize her outdoor grill and even cooked us breakfast. She even We would be very happy to stay there again when in town. She is a perfect host. Thanks Catie for everything including our conversations.

Catherine was such a wonderful host. Everything from flexible check in times as well as a lovely home cooked breakfast in the morning. Her home is stunning a wonderful place to stay. Catherine herself was nothing short of welcoming and kind. Thanks so much for a wonderful stay!

My friend and I were traveling and stayed here a week. It could not have been better! The house was beautiful and very comfortable. Cathy went above and beyond to make sure we had what we needed and had great recommendations for the area. It was easy to communicate with her. We had such a great stay and would highly recommend it!!

Gill was very warm & welcoming from the minute I got there. The loft was darling & perfectly set up. Sadly I had plans for the short time I was there so I didn't get to enjoy it as much as I planned. If I'm ever headed through St. Lours I would for sure stay there & would highly recommend it to family & friends.

Everything was amazing. Gill and Cindy could not have been more welcoming, friendly, and accommodating of our last minute schedule changes. Their place was spotless and very well organized. It was well remodeled and cozy in addition to being such a unique dwelling. We were only there one night but wished we could have stayed longer. We love the barn!

Oh. My. Goodness. Where to begin without being too lengthy. This place is AMAZING. From the graciousness of the hosts, to every amenity you could think of, to the softest towels I've ever felt, top notch from beginning to end. I would highly recommend this quaint getaway to anyone visiting the area. Gill and Cindy have gone above and beyond to make sure your every need is met. We hope to return again soon. A truly great experience.

My sister and I needed a place to stay in St. Louis because of a memorial service for our aunt, so I thought I'd try an Air B&B. This was a perfect first experience. There was a lot of comfortable, gracious communication between Gil and me, a lot of flexibility in our check-in and check-out time (partly due to no reservations on either end of our stay there). We were warmly welcomed, everything was well-laid out and well-appointed. I would stay here again given the opportunity. Unfortunately, I'm running out of aunts.

We had a lovely stay in the red barn. The unique space had everything we needed and more for our weekend in St. Louis. Gill and Cindy were gracious and thoughtful hosts. The kitchen had all the gear we needed to cook breakfast with the food we got at the Soulard Farmers Market, which was only about a 20 minute drive away. We enjoyed eating breakfast outside on the patio, and it was nice to chat with Gill and Cindy before going out to explore the city. If we ever find ourselves in the area again, we would definitely want to stay here!

Gill and Cindy were absolutely fantastic hosts for our spontaneous trip through St. Louis. They were very flexible with our schedule and made us feel right at home. Their property is beautiful and they are conveniently located next to the highway. Everything we needed was included and they were happy to provide us with local information. I highly recommend this property with some of the nicest people you'll ever have the pleasure of meeting.

People like Gill and Cindy are the secret to Airbnb's success. They love sharing their space with others and truly make you feel at home.

Every detail was delightful at the barn. Reception was warm and welcoming. Gill and Cindy were excellent hosts. The barn was perfectly clean and better than pictured. I would certai ly visit again!

Our stay at Casa Bellerosa was fantastic. I highly recommend Jolynn and this property. We felt immediately welcomed and enjoyed everything about our stay.

Fantastic host! Absolutely loved the place and everything about the trip! Highly recommend!

These pictures of Casa Bellerosa are stunning, but nothing compares to when you walk in that door and experience what you see in these photos. It actually starts before you walk in the door of your private entrance because there's a beautiful fireplace with an inviting hot tub right outside your door! (We didn't get to experience the pool as it was off season.) And as you walk in and go from room to room, you're just amazed that you actually get to stay there!!! I enjoyed everything from the sauna, pool table, shuffle board (even though hubby kept winning!), exercise room, comfy chairs to watch tv (3 tv's, folks!), huge bar, (free) video poker (that I played WAY too much of!), fridge and microwave, ice maker, and sweet little touches like a note from Jolynn and excellent communication to make our stay wonderful. If you're on the fence about going here... do it. You will not regret it! (Unless you want to come when we want to rebook, in that case, stay away LOL) ;) We'll be back! See you soon, Jolynn!

Beautiful home. My stay couldn't have been any more perfect! Everything was convenient, and I am definitely going back soon!

Bella Rosa is incredible...far exceeded our expectations and is a fantastic value! Its a destination in itself. Jolynn was incredibly friendly and welcoming. This made our anniversary extra special and we definitely plan on returning.

Great experience with Bellerosa Place. I don't think I've experienced high standards of amenities, detail of consideration to guests, and cleanliness of property like this one. I've stayed in a number of luxury resort rooms, and this place was much nicer than what I've experienced or expected upon arrival.

I surprised my husband with a stay here for his 50th. When we arrived we were amazed at how beautiful everything was! Their attention to detail far surpassed any 4-️ hotel we have ever stayed at. We especially loved the exclusivity of the hot tub which was right outside the room along with the great sound system whatever room you are in. The bathroom is just as gorgeous, and we even got to sit in the sauna! It was a taste of heaven!

This place was amazing! We had a great time and Jolynn was a fantastic host, making sure we had everything we needed. The hot tub was like brand new with many features, there are speakers in every room including the sauna, and they even had heated floors in the bathroom! I'd highly recommend her place to anyone traveling to the St. Louis area.

This is a great, private basement room. Enjoyed the extra amenities, too.

Good basic value

I really enjoyed my stay and appreciated the private entrance. I felt I could come and go as needed without being a bother. I highly recommend staying here!

Zoe was a great host. Upon my arrival, I was shown all the details for access, TV remote, Keurig maker, heater, etc. The little things she included were greatly appreciated: coffee/tea pods, snacks, bottled water, great collection of DVDs, etc. The bed was very comfy. Room was quiet w/private access. I felt very safe & secure in this cute little brick house that St. Louis is known for. It's street parking, but each time I returned to the house, I had no problem finding a spot. I had close access to where I needed to go - downtown was only about 10 min away. Zoe's cat was incredibly sweet & was an occasional visitor.

The place was wonderful and Zoe was communicative and helpful, even when we bothered her in the middle of the night.

I wasn't sure what to fully expect at Zoe's place in Saint Louis. It was FABULOUS! Zoe greeted me on my arrival, and provided me a list of wonderful local dining spots, parks, scenic attractions, as well as information on more widely known things to do and see around Saint Louis. The room was very neat and clean, the bed was luxurious, and I had coffee when I arrived and in the morning. I had a separate outdoor entrance I could use at any time, my own bathroom, laundry, TV, DVD's. I couldn't have asked for anything more. I had a wonderful stay in a charming, historic renovated home. There was a great Mexican food restaurant right behind her home. So, I got to enjoy live music and margaritas only a 2 min walk away. She is also only 5 min or less from a beautiful park. There are tons of other restaurants and attractions within a few min drive. I will certainly stay at Zoe's place again when I make it back to Saint Louis.

This is a great neighborhood with a beautiful view of Francis park. The space is comfortable and Susan was a great host! Very accommodating

Love the St. Louis Hills location. Being right across from Francis Park (and within walking distance of Ted Drewes! ) made it even nicer.

Great apartment at a great location. The park was fantastic and the area was great for taking walks with our whole family. The apartment had everything we needed and there was plenty of space. The location was convenient for getting around St. Louis; close to the St. Louis Zoo, Busch Stadium, the Missouri Botanical Garden, etc. Street parking was not an issue. Will definitely mark this place for future visits!

I had wonderful experience here. The apartment was charming and clean in a beautiful part of St Louis. Susan was a great host who even provided a fruit plate for us. Francis Park is right across the street and the apartment was really close to Ted Drewes and lots of great restaurants. Easy access to the interstates made it a great location to get around the city easily. We would definitely stay here again!

This was a great spot to stay, right across the street from a pretty park. The neighborhood is great and was convenient to the places we were going in St. Louis and Clayton. As a bonus, there was a parade right out the picture window and a carnival down the street! It was clean and comfortable and we'd stay there again next time we visit our friends in St. Louis.

Susan was extremely accommodating and made us feel very welcomed. The neighborhood appeared safe, quiet, beautiful, and very family oriented. The apartment has a private entrance and has a view of a lovely park across the street where people can be seen walking and jogging. It is centrally located within a short driving distance of many stores, markets, restaurants, etc.

Susan's place is beautiful and in a wonderful neighborhood. It's quiet and active at the same time. The décor in the apartment is very warm and inviting and overlooks the park across the street. She was so thoughtful to have a full size. (7.5 ft.) Christmas tree decorated and lit to welcome us into her lovely apartment 1 week before Christmas. The rooms are smartly decorated and the bathroom had everything you need in the way of toiletries. The neighborhood is so quiet that sleeping is a beautiful experience. We were in St. Louis during one of their coldest snaps (polar vortex) but the apartment was warm and cozy and made it hard to leave when we had commitments away from it. It is a great place to stay and we would highly recommend it.

Absolute 5 star* place. The park next door, the treats like candies, bagels, juice, etc. So welcoming! Would recommend 100x over. We will definitely be rebooking.

This place was perfect for our family. We were in town for a funeral and had grandparents along with us. We each had our own room and plenty of space to unwind. We also had friends and family over to the house, and it was perfect for entertaining and cooking. I'm also very picky about cleanliness, and this place is kept very well. They do not have a washer and dryer but there is a laundromat down the street. Also, it is about 6 blocks from a couple restaurants, running store, and local shopping. Sara was very responsive anytime I needed to get in touch with her. There is also a keypad with a code to get into the house, so you don't need to worry about a key. Would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful cozy house with lots of beds, televisions, and space to accommodate a larger group. Neighbors were very friendly and welcoming to our group when we saw them outside the house.

Nice clean home in a neighborhood setting.

What a great find. Had a team of kids with me and the place was awesome. There is lots of room for people to spread out and enjoy. The neighborhood was quite and welcoming even to a group like mine. Check out the food trucks on Fridays at the Church around the block.

I highly recommend this place. Close to everything and the hosts were responsive and helpful.

We loved it! Great place! Made our family trip extra special.

This house is great. It is in a safe location with plenty of street parking. The home is ideal for large groups; we had our three kids (ages 6, 4, and 2), one set of grandparents, one aunt, and ourselves staying in the house for a total of 8 people. We were concerned about common space but it was totally fine -- there's seating for three in the roomy kitchen, the dining room sits 8, and there is a giant couch in the living room with two reclining sections and a separate recliner. The house is absolutely clean -- it's obviously been renovated recently and the provided items are barely used -- some of the plates still had the plate protectors around them. The upstairs and downstairs have separate climate control systems with separate thermostats (although the one on the main floor kept resetting itself to 85 despite repeated corrections). Why is this not a 5-star review then? Well to be honest there were two major problems, each costing one star. First, the host did not provide instructions to turn off the alarm, so when we got into the house the siren went off for a good half hour before we were able to reach someone and get the code to disable it -- and sadly the alarm panel sounded a warning to enter the code twice in the middle of the night during our four-day stay. Something is wrong with the alarm and while the host did ask the alarm company to come out and inspect it, the problems persisted afterwards and the host ignored our request to provide instructions to shut down the alarm system entirely. Second major issue concerns the mattresses. You might think you like a firm mattress but there's firm, and then there's concrete. I literally had to check to make sure there *was* a mattress and we weren't sleeping on a box spring. All but two of the mattresses are INCREDIBLY firm to the point that only the children were actually comfortable. Two of our five adults were able to tolerate the mattresses at all. Out of the other three, one went out and purchased an airbed, one slept on the pullout sofa, and one stuffed a spare comforter underneath the sheet to soften the mattress. Some minor issues to know about (which do not warrant dropping a star but if you're looking to book this place it's better to know ahead of time): The staircase to the second floor is steep with narrow steps and there is no handrail. The grandparents were not able to make it higher than the third step. This won't be a problem for many people but it will be a concern for anyone with mobility problems. Our 4 and 6 year olds had no problems. Going along with that, the three bathrooms are all on the main floor (one is in the master suite which has a king and a pull out sofa), so if you are one...

Great house. Off beaten track location, but a few restaurants within walking distance. Within driving distance to everything STL has to offer. Wood floors creak a bit so had to try hard not to make too much noise to wake kids up. Overall, great stay and perfect for family with two toddlers.
