**This neighborhood is very quiet and tucked away off the highway. All neighbors have been in their houses for a very long time. For this reason, we do not allow parties or gatherings. The maximum number of guests is all that is allowed at any given time and any person sleeping must be accounted for in your booking. Quiet hours begin at 9pm. After this time all noise must be contained within the house. **

SMOKING OF ANY KIND IS STRICTLY PROHIBBITED INSIDE!!! We have locations outside and away from the entries where smoking is allowed.

LOCAL INSECT DISCLOSURE:
We feel very silly to have to include this in our listing, but this is one of those cases where a single incident causes a warning issued to all:
Insects, arachnids, and bugs are common in the Midwest. Some you may see include flies, mosquitos, bees or wasps, spiders, ticks, ants, and a plethora of other common creepy crawlies. Sometimes these creatures get inside through no fault of ours or yours. Please keep in mind that we do quarterly treatments on all our properties, and should one of these bugs venture inside we do not take responsibility.

Local Weather Disclosure:
We are located in Kansas City, the heart of the Midwest. Weather can be unpredictable. Storms of all kinds have been known to pop up at any time. We are not responsible for power outages, downed tree branches, or the condition of the streets during winter. (We will always shovel and salt our driveway and walkway).

Getting Around:
Located near the Kansas City bus line.
Ride share is readily available in this area.

The place was clean but an overwhelming strong odor I could not stay there. I asked for owner to refund the second nite which they DID NOT because I didn't read her message to cancel before midnite because I was busy for three hours trying to find another place to stay and was driving. URG

Chiefs game visit

This is a nice cute place to stay and very close to Arrowhead Stadium (5 min. away). Our teenager loved the fact that she had her own area upstairs and my husband and I had our space downstairs. We had a dog and it was easy to take the dog out in the fenced in back yard. We didn't do any cooking so we didn't use the stove or dishes. Communication was easy and area was safe. We would stay there again.

Decent place

Pros: Price was reasonable. Location to Arrowhead stadium was good. Cons: It could use a deep clean. The arcade game didn't work. Strange layout. Step to bathroom and stair case to second floor could be dangerous and/or difficult for elderly persons to maneuver. Also apparently there are multiple rental units on the same property and it's hard to tell which is which. The guy renting the room below us arrived around midnight and was trying to get in the upstairs bedroom. He was rattling and trying to jar the door open. My daughters were staying in that room and it scared the crap out of them. We thought someone was breaking in.

Perfect for a few nights stay

Perfect location in a quiet neighborhood to stay when going to Arrowhead for a game. House was clean and cozy. Beds were very comfortable. We had a minor issue and the owners were there to resolve the issue in less than 10 minutes.

Better than a hotel!

This was the perfect little house for our stay. It was so close to the stadiums and had everything we needed. They thought of everything, and only driving 5 minutes to get to the Kansas City game can’t be beat!

Wonderful Place!

Everything was clean and welcoming. The appliances work well. Back yard area is great as well. The bathroom is a tad small but more than adequate. My kids loved the upstairs area. The window acs kept the house nice and cool. The only sad part was that there was not an xbox as listed because we brought games. However, the arcade game was pretty cool.

Independence visit

Bed is not queen size as listed and mattress was not fitting the frame and overhang. Should use white sheets to help display cleanliness. Bathroom was too small and there were little ants around the sink! Both doors need adjusting- difficult to open without force. Yard needs grass! Worse neighborhood to have rental - city ordinance to stop fireworks at midnight but they keep shooting off until 1am! Worst experience ever!

Met our needs

Beds are very comfortable. Coffee station was cute and stocked. Tv was great. Great that we could have our dog there. Small bathroom so a larger person might have trouble. Stairs to the upstairs bedroom are quite narrow and turn. Again, not a problem for us but if larger, it could be. The boys loved the arcade game and separate bedroom up and away from the rest of the place. Didn’t use the washer and dryer but they looked in great shape.

Small bungalow at rear of residence. Easy access just minutes from I-70 and the stadiums. For the price, well worth it. Fenced backyard for our Yorkie in a quiet neighborhood. Be sure to visit Dixons Chili down the street.
