However, feel free to take your privacy seriously and we won't be offended. Other things to note Please remember we are sharing our home with you, so at the time of your booking, please let us know a little bit about you and what brings you to The Lou. We have 1 dog and he is not hypoallergenic. Sorry, we do not allow guests to bring pets. While we identify our space as “super-quiet”, sometimes Duke is not...He will welcome you loudly and enthusiastically at the door but mellows quickly once you enter and get to know him. We only accept reservations from guests that have their own Airbnb account. You may not book a reservation for someone else. We greatly appreciate you telling us a bit about what brings you to St. Louis when you request a room. We are a smoke/vape-free household and allow no firearms on our property. * Please note, the guest must have a photo of themselves on their profile and some details about who they are.
