I was so happy we booked this charming little retro home. It was in a great location. It took 20 minutes or less to get to all of our tourist spots (Arrowhead, the P&L district, Union Station and Harrah's Casino)! The owner was very proactive, she checked in via messages to make sure we were having a good time and to see if all was going well. I cant thank her and her husband enough for the wonderful time we had in KC!

Charming Older House

The house has the charm and quirks of an older property, with fun decor (especially the kitchen appliances). Hosts responded quickly to messages and were very kind. Off-street parking is a plus. Location was quiet and felt safe.

Cute is what's going for this place

Taking away the two hour delay of checking in because the host was locked out of her account and apparently forgot the place was booked and the Wi-Fi password being wrong in the book. It still was an ok stay. I would recommend this place for a one night girls night where you are simply snapping cute pictures and sleeping here. I used it as a cute romantic v-day weekend and trying to watch the only tv in the living room with my partner was less than comfortable, it was almost unbearable. The plastic mattress protector also made sleeping uncomfy in the bedroom we chose to sleep in. The light system is confusing and not explained in the binder you have to figure it out and we never figured out the main kitchen light. You can tell there has been serious wear without fixing items. The handle to the cabinets in the kitchen not screwed in/loose, the dinning room table has a crack, the floors are peeled/damaged throughout the house, the shower spout is improperly installed causing water to come out the spout and shower head no matter what. This place was created to make money and it shows. This also had less amenities than other houses I stayed at. I was invited back to stay to have a smoother stay, however I just wouldn't pick this place again for the price and what the house offered. I did try to convince my partner to leave yesterday but he didn't want to lose out on the money since we booked it till today at 10:00am.

Response from VrboOwner on 2 Mar 2025
Dear Tatajana, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We truly appreciate all guest input, as it helps us improve our space and ensure the best possible experience for future visitors. First and foremost, we sincerely apologize for the check-in delay due to the account access issue. This was an unusual situation, and we have since taken steps to prevent it from happening again. Additionally, we regret the misprint of the Wi-Fi password in the binder and appreciate you bringing it to our attention—it has now been corrected. Regarding the items you mentioned in the home, we always encourage guests to reach out during their stay if they have any concerns. We would have been more than happy to address them in real time to ensure your comfort. While there were a few loose cabinet handles, which have now been tightened, the flooring is brand new and in excellent condition. The dining room table has a minor, natural wear crack—nothing that affects its function or integrity. The shower issue was a simple fix and has since been adjusted by a plumber, though it did not impact its usability. We understand that every guest has different expectations, and we regret that our space didn’t fully meet yours. Our goal is always to provide a unique and comfortable experience for all visitors, and we appreciate your feedback as we continue to improve. Best wishes, Sadie Davis Staying in KC

The home was tastefully decorated and visually appealing. The owner was also accommodating in allowing us to check in early.Unfortunately, our overall experience fell short of expectations. Communication was challenging from the beginning. The phone number provided for the owner in the listing did not actually belong to the owner, and I ultimately had to contact VRBO in order to reach her before check-in. The lack of responsiveness continued throughout our stay.Upon arrival, there was a strong unpleasant odor throughout the home. Additionally, only three towels were provided despite our reservation accurately reflecting six guests. The towels also had awful odor, and weren’t unusable as a result. Neither wi-fi passwords worked. I reached out to the owner regarding both concerns, with no response. After our stay, we realized we had left an item behind. The owner initially indicated she would be happy to ship it back, and I even offered to cover the shipping costs. However, after several follow-up messages, I have not received a response and the item has not been returned almost a month later.While the home itself is charming and nicely decorated, the lack of communication, cleanliness concerns, inaccurate contact information, and unresolved issue with our forgotten item made for a disappointing experience. The neighborhood was also not our preferred area. Unfortunately, we would not return to this property in the future.
