In the middle of it all...for better or worse
I have struggled with determining my rating of the Opulent Owl at the Divine Otter. First, let me say the space is beautiful both inside and out. It was true to the pictures online, clean, well appointed, and the hosts were excellent and prompt in their communication. Secondly, my wife and I booked this for a quiet weekend away. We have stayed on the opposite end of Main Street in St. Charles several times and were looking for a quiet relaxing weekend. When we arrived we parked out back, walked up the alley, and entered from the street side, which was easy. Once we set everything down we realized the door from the rear of the building leads into a hallway that opens into the bedroom. It is the main point of entry for the other residents. What we found was that you can hear everything from the hall in the bedroom and vice-versus. It is a small hotel so it wasn't too bothersome.We expected some street noise based on the pictures of the location, but it was egregious.The location is right in the middle of lots of bars and restaurants...for better or worse. The hotel has bars on both sides of it. Between 9pm-2am there was constant music and loud drunken behavior outside which is impossible to drown out in the apartment. We contacted the hosts the next morning who were very gracious and quick to respond. I think this space may be a great spot for people looking to take advantage of the nightlife. I am sure it is quieter during a weekday or winter time.It was beautiful, but noisy
