We had a very nice stay at Gudrun’s home! It’s conveniently located for traveling all around KC. Gudrun was very communicative, clear, and helpful. The kitchen was well stocked, large, and super clean. The street is one-way so parking is easy and the block is quiet and calm — but it’s very close to many good restaurants and bars. Beds are very comfortable! The linens are great. As noted in the listing, the upstairs bedroom and bathroom are an open space, but that wasn’t a problem for us as a couple. The house has lots of windows that let in great natural light when you want it — but are equipped with terrific blinds when you want privacy. Overall a great stay in a great location; thank you, Gudrun!

Gudrun’s place was exactly as described. Everything went very well. As great as everything was at the house, the location is fantastic. It is close enough to walk to the country club plaza with all the great restaurants and shopping and it is minutes by car from Westport and Crown Center. We WILL stay here again. Thank you Gudrun.

Safe neighborhood. Sometimes in this area of town the neighborhoods are finicky. This one is not. Would book again solely based on that. Other perks: cleanliness, well equipped kitchen, awesome bathrooms, easy check in, convenient location, prime parking. (Street is a one way, don’t be wary of this listing due to street parking.) Beds are firm. Staircase is beautiful but has no hand rail so one must go slow when exiting the loft area.
