Location, location, location. Right in the Brewery District and adjacent to German Village, this place is walking distance to parks, restaurants, coffee, chocolate and the divine madness that is The Book Loft. But be prepared for a few quirks. The carriage house has oodles of space, upstairs and down, but the layout struck us as odd: two flat screen TVs, but you'd need field glasses to watch them because they are so far away from any seating. The upstairs sleeping area has two double beds (actually queen beds I think) in one big room. Inexplicably, there is a full laundry in the same room, but no bathroom upstairs. It's down an uneven staircase by the kitchen and the back door. There is very little natural light, since the few windows are mostly covered. The diagonal beams that seem to hold up the ceiling are placed right next to the beds so if you sleep on that side of the bed, beware! One more quibble: a rental that supposedly accommodates six people should have more than two wineglasses. A "welcome to the carriage house" guide, with tips on door locking, HVAC setting, the neighborhood and other attractions would help future guests.
