Enjoyed our stay. Had some difficulty with the locks at first. The 3rd level staircase is somewhat steep. The manager was very helpful and answered the phone when I called.

It was a very comfortable stay! There was enough room for all of us and everything was set up very well. I would suggest adding that the king bed is on the 3rd floor with very very steep stairs. Communication with the owner was always prompt and very clear. All the bedding was clean and very comfortable. It was a total of 13 people that stayed at the house, including 5 children, and we never felt cramped. Would definitely recommend for larger groups.its also within walking distance of the KC Forehouse which is where my BIL got married. Thank you for your hospitality!!

This is the second house we have rented from William through VRBO. As with the other property, it is a clean, updated old home. Plenty of comfortable beds, common space and dining area. Two families of 4 fit nicely here. Only downsides are the house being in a somewhat dicey area and the top floor bedroom has an incredibly steep staircase. Definitely not for older folks who could fall easily or for younger kids who would tumble. Owner is very responsive. House is spacious and well kept.

The home was clean and spacious, kitchen and bathrooms were stocked with glassware, toilet tissue, etc. Stairs to top floor are very steep. The property is not within walking distance to CCP as stated in the ad, and the neighborhood is less than desirable.

The house itself was very clean, very spacious, very stocked & everything easy check in! Everything with house was great! The back yard was not private, you share it with the neighbor house which wasn’t comforting. The neighbor was an VRBO as well and there was tons of fighting and cops had to be called. The host owns both houses for VRBO. The owner/host said the drive way was ours for parking but the neighbor trapped our cars in & the owner asked us to go over and ask them to move car while we were very uncomfortable doing so. Will not be staying again for young females/bachelorette due to neighbor hood

Our extended family was in town for the weekend for a wedding in downtown KC. This house was conveniently located near the Country Club Plaza and downtown. The home itself was well maintained and nicely decorated with several thoughtful details, like coffee, cold water in the refrigerator, and throw blankets in all rooms. The host was extremely responsive. 5 stars all the way around!!

The house was beautiful! And had plenty of space. We loved the historic look of the home and that it accommodated everyone. The location of the home wasn’t far from different restaurants and fun things to do. I would stay here again! Very clean and the host went above and beyond when it came to responding -super quick too!

A group of siblings/cousins got together for a weekend reunion. We wanted a place near The Plaza, and found this VRBO. 5 adults and 1 child stayed at the property, with other relatives living in the vicinity coming and going throughout the weekend. The house was a perfect meeting place! There is a fully equipped kitchen. We enjoyed sitting around the living room/dining room visiting and reminiscing. Beds were comfy. Plenty of sleeping accommodations. The bedroom in the attic was undergoing a little construction, but was still usable. There is a grocery store about 4 blocks away, and a very hip, urban coffee shop about a block and a half away. It’s a quick drive to The Plaza for shopping and evening meals. Contact with the host was all done through text message, and was extremely easy. Mention was made in previous reviews of running out of hot water for showers. We staggered our showers between mornings and nights and never had any difficulty. 3 cars can easily be parked in driveway. Street parking is also allowed, although we didn’t have to use it. Neighborhood appears to be undergoing a gentrification process, as was evidenced at the coffee shop. Overall very pleased with the home and our stay.
