My husband & I were very impressed with the hostess Ms. Henrietta Taylor she made us feel at home with her hospitality. She keeps the establishment immaculate, and served a scrumptious homemade breakfast! I highly recommend this bed & breakfast in the Central West End of St. Louis, Missouri to all family & friends! 2 Thumbs Up 👍👍!

Carpets not the cleanest. Some updating needed for summer users. ( A/C units in windows ) Staff was very helpful though. Recommend booking a few days in advance due to Expedia delays. I was unexpected at property but staff on-site made some last minute adjustments to accommodate.

The room has poor AC. The room was not cleaned daily (bed, trash cans, etc) The shower did not have fresh towels except for first day, There was no breakfast on the day we left for the road. This is of course an older building which adds to its unique style. Next time I will book a hotel.

not recommended

Not in the greatest neighborhood, our room had no shower. No ironing board or iron. Biggest issue was no A/C. We had a fan going in our room, and woke up due to being hot. We stayed in July. Breakfast included microwavable oatmeal packets and nutrigrain bars. Will not be back

not as advertised

The private bathroom was a shared bathroom for the floor. The room needed a good cleaning. One of the outlets in the room was so loose I was afraid to use it. The continental breakfast was a choice between hot pockets, some other frozen breakfast foods, or cold cereal with no milk.

Nice place to stay in.

Room was great, but could use a little refurbishing, service was excellent as was the breakfast. The area was a bit sketchy. I wasn't sure where the Central West End restaraunt district was from the hotel, but I know I wouldn't want to walk there. Also, the WiFi and cable were terrible, but it might have been the weather.

Interesting bed and breakfast (not a hotel). I arrived around 9pm , nobody was there to check me in so I had to call a number and be let in. Nobody was on premise. My room was still dirty (coffee still in coffee machine with grounds). The reservation says private bathroom but there is no private bathroom - it’s shared for the floor. The location wasn’t what I expected either. I couldn’t stay the night and had to find a different accommodation.

Stay elsewhere...

The house would be beautiful if it weren’t so dilapidated. Two of the three mornings there was no coffee or hot water for tea. We were locked out the second night. We were told the door was always left open, which obviously wasn’t true and there wasn’t an answer for a code when we called. Had we not guessed the code, we would have been locked out all night. There was no one around to check us out. Another guest was also looking for the caretaker. There was no door on our bathroom, which was disconcerting. There was no hair dryer, DVD player, and the tv consisted of a makeshift antenna half ways screwed into the wall that barely played the local channels. The wiring was messed up and needed replaced. An example, you had to turn a light on to get “juice”to the outlet. It is called Central West End which would mislead one into think in it was a good area. But, a local told us, “they lied.” It was a complete waste of money. I would have been happier at a hotel. Definitely the worst bed and breakfast (if you really want t call it such) that we have ever stayed in, and we have stayed in a lot.

Things started off perfectly fine. The building was easy to find, located in an ok area, free parking lot behind the building. I was greeted by friendly staff, given a short tour of the upstairs area where my room was located. The bed was decently comfortable but the TV and remotes were a little hard to figure out how to operate at first. At the time my only real issue was the lack of useable power outlets. The next day was a different story. During the initial tour I was shown where my bathroom was (a few feet away, not connected to the room) and explicitly told that I wouldn't be sharing it with anyone. That morning when I woke up and was getting ready for the day there was a woman I didn't know exiting the room (but taking her sweet time and giving me the stink eye). She was in there one other time that morning while I finishing getting ready/packing up to check out. It would have been one thing if I was told I'd have to share a bathroom for someone. I wouldn't have been so put off by some random woman in there. I also wouldn't have left my belongings in there. I went to check out and there was no one around. I left the room key on what I think was the office counter, crossed my fingers they knew who they belonged to and that I was checking out on time. Not far behind me was the lady from the bathroom, continuing to give me the stink eye as we both loaded our bags into our cars. I can't even fully express how turned off I was with that whole bathroom situation.

Cleanliness lacking at this B&B

My wife and I were disappointed in our stay at CWE B&B. We stayed in the Asian room on the top floor and the first thing we immediately noticed was that it appeared the room had not been dusted in quite some time. There was a layer of dust on all the tables and flat surfaces in our room. The next thing which stood out was a mess inside the room's mini fridge. It looked like a soda had frozen and exploded inside the fridge and was left like that with no one to clean it up. Finally, we were disappointed in the breakfast made available for guests. We expected to have a breakfast at least on par with your typical continental breakfast you would find at any generic hotel chain but instead the only options available were a small tray of store bought mini muffins, whole fruit, or frozen breakfast bowls you would find in the supermarket. I don't think it's asking too much to have a hot meal prepared when you specifically stay at a bed and breakfast. We will not book this location again unfortunately.

It was one of the most simplest check-ins. The staff was extremely friendly. The rooms had an amazing style. Id say the prices were a little high. I would definitely come again if I was staying in St. Louis for a day with my girlfriend.
