High-speed wireless internet & local TV channels on the Big Screen HDTV. Impeccably clean & maintained for your ultimate comfort & enjoyment! (NO Parties, Gatherings or Events). PLEASE READ HOUSE RULES! The lower level bath area in the basement is very nice, but is not a "room" unto itself, but a section of the basement--see photos. There is a door at the top of the stairs for privacy. Newly finished red oak hardwood floors throughout house (except upstairs bathroom and kitchen). There is a powder room (1/2 bath) on the main floor. All 3 bedrooms are upstairs and are corner rooms with 2+ windows for abundant natural light.

We also have someone nearby who will assist if necessary and can be available on short notice. Beautiful well-maintained quiet historic Alton/Godfrey neighborhood with tall oak and maple trees with professional landscape maintenance. Most homes are constructed from all brick or native stone and built in the 30's and 40's. We have the most Fantastic Neighbors. Minutes from all that Alton and Godfrey has to offer. Grocery stores, taverns, restaurants, shopping, Mississippi river. 35 minutes (assuming light traffic) to the Airport, downtown St. Louis, Busch Stadium (Cardinals), Scottrade Center (Blues), Anheuser-Busch Brewery, Washington University, Grant's Farm, Forrest Park. But while Alton is a small town, St. Louis is like any big city so you should allow 45-55 minutes to get to downtown St. Louis or the Airport in case of traffic. The city bus stop for local area public transportation is 4 blocks away. There is taxicab service in the area as well as Uber. The TV is a 55" Samsung HD smart TV. Only local network stations are available (ABC, CBS, NBC, FOX, PBS, others). However, there is High-Speed Wireless Internet so you can stream Netflix, Amazon TV (firestick), etc if you wish and you have your own account. You will be billed for any pay-per-view charges unless you use your own account. WiFi logon info is available in the Guest Resources section once your reservation is confirmed and also is printed out on the modem on the lower shelf in the living room. There is a binder on the desk with various information and instructions regarding the home, as well as local shops, restaurants, pubs, attractions, etc. Airbnb will collect an additional Illinois "occupancy tax" (approximately 6%) when you book, and remit directly to the taxing authority.
