Where do I begin with this house. I'll start with the number one thing that disappointed me. These people changed the entire house before we came and never bothered to notify us. What do I mean by change? They painted the house these awful dark and shocking colors, adding a whole bunch of inappropriate pictures everywhere. ( mind you they said kid friendly) I went back to the app to see what happened and they still had all the old pictures up . Nothing was painted. No dirty pictures. It was a nice white and bright home. The next morning when I looked they changed everything on the app. The second issue was that of privacy. No curtains or blinds in almost all places even the bathroom! We took the linen and covered all the windows. Third, the playground, which was one of the main reasons why I got this place was broken. The only thing useful was the slide (what fun!) Fourth, this place was super dirty. Seriously beer cans on the window outside, cigars in the backyard, dusty floors, spiders hanging from their webs, dirty pile of laundry on the floor in laundry room, no dishwasher soap, I could go on! Fifth, half the house's lighting fixtures didn't work. This place was a whole different in the morning vs night time. At night they only had a few lights working. We had to make due with bathroom and closet lights how unfortunate. Out of all the houses I have stayed at, this was the worst. Never staying here again or getting anything from this company again.

The house was so clean and spacious. Loved the decor and architecture. Plenty of space for all 13 of us to spread out yet still enjoy time together. Loved the crib and high chair were already there as saved us on packing.

The house was great. It’s a lot of space so our group could spread out. I would recommend it and stay there again. My only complaints are around cleanliness: the kids who slept in the 3rd floor room all came home covered in spider bites, the mattress pad on my king bed needs cleaned or replaced - it had other people’s hair on it, the kitchen sponge and scrubber smelled like mildew, and in general the vacuuming and dusting really needed redone. With that said; everything worked, the kitchen had everything we needed, the beds were comfortable, and the house was decorated well.

July 2022: We and our son's family stayed here for 4 nights during our family trip to St. Louis. The interior was beautiful and very clean, with brand new kitchen and bathrooms, stylish furniture and wall colors. Very high ceilings. Nice pots and pans in the kitchen. On the second floor there were 3 huge bedrooms each with a king size bed. One of those was the master bedroom which had a wonderful bathroom. There was also a bathroom off the hall for the other bedrooms and a half-bath near the kitchen. (total of 2.5 bathrooms.) On the third floor there was one large bedroom with 6 twin beds for the children. We could see the Arch out of the 3rd floor bedroom window. Very close to the St. Louis Arch, St. Louis Zoo, City Museum. There was a garage door opener from the alley, so two cars were safely parked inside the fence under a carport. The door to the basement wasn't locked so some family members went down there, and said there was nothing to see, it was basically unfinished down there. There was a play structure in the large backyard. I guess my only complaint was that no one had weed whacked around the play structure so the weeds were high, but it didn't matter since it was over 100 degrees every day and the children couldn't play out there in the heat. We had a nice time and were very satisfied with the house.

Great place for all ages, a nice up stairs for the kids (ypung n teens) A playground outside for younger kids. Nice living areas for adults to relax also. This is definitely the place for anyone/everyone and especially families! Location was easy, close to Hwys, close to downtown, close to Lafayette Park and all the community has to offer. Loved it and will stay here again when in St Louis!

My family enjoyed our stayed at The Gate. The property was very clean and in a great location by Lafayette Park. We gave 4 stars rather than 5 as there were quite a few hiccups that needed to be addressed. It seemed that we may have been the first renters as there were no lightbulbs in lamps, pots or pans, the oven didn't work and some fixtures fell off the wall. The owners/management was very responsive and tried to remedy anything that was overlooked as soon as we told them about it. We chalked this up to being a new property and I am sure these issues will all be resolved for the next renters.
