Disappointed

Had I known the temperature in the rooms were not individually controlled I would not have booked this property. It was warm the afternoon we checked in and the window in the bathroom was open. That should have been our first clue. When I called service they told us that there are only two thermostats for the entire building and for our "convenience" there was a fan in the closet. The room was warm and the fan, along side with the noise from outside, made it an uncomfortable nights sleep. The next evening they turned the AC on so it was better. In addition, we had early plans and had intended on grabbing something from the continental breakfast which was supposed to be put out at 7:00 am, at 7:15 no breakfast was available so we went on with our day.

I like the comfort of this bed-and-breakfast The beds were comfortable to sleep in The bed-and-breakfast has a nice area with several porches. It was very close to the art museum and the plaza area. There is a park nearby that was beautiful. This is a place. I would definitely recommend.

Cool B&B

We never received our codes to check in so had to call to get them which took some extra time. Our room was awesome- the Kathryn Winstead! The bed was comfortable- the bathroom beautiful and a lovely deck we didn’t have as much time as we would have liked on. Parking was frustrating. We got back late - after a football game. The way people parked did not leave room for us so we had to park on the street 2 blocks away. Breakfast was ok- any bread for toast was not found. All that was available were croissants. I dug around and found some yogurt. It’s a cool place to stay- just had a few frustrations.

If you are someone that likes to control the thermostat in your room or likes it when management returns your messages, this is not the place for you. It was too hot and the thermostat was locked up. The worst part was when management simply ghosted me. I cant think of one reason to refer this place or go back.

Great location, the property is quaint and the grounds are lovely. KC is hot and humid in August so we appreciated the a/c and ceiling fan in our room! We didn’t encounter staff and all communication and transactions were virtual, which I really liked. I recommend this property to anyone looking for an experience different from a typical hotel stay.

Air conditioning is controlled by them. Fans were not enough during this heat wave. Bathroom mirror old and small. Great bed. Keyless entry worked well. Handicapped entrance was good. Hot tub was slippery when using as shower. No luggage caddy. Not much space in bath to set things on. Beautiful outside area.
Bath mirror small and worn mirror.
