My girlfriend and I had a lovely stay at the Garden House B&B. Chris was very communicative for our check in and gave us a lot of the history of the house as well as tips for the area. That was particularly helpful as we'd never been to Hannibal. The house was very clean, the semi private bathroom was in great condition, the bed was so comfy and we were even given bathrobes! We had breakfast 2 days and Chris is a wonderful cook. We hardly used the car as most of downtown Hannibal is just a few blocks away. They are very up front that the house is home to a couple cats, one of which was our little shadow for the weekend. They are very sweet and caused us no issues, but it's something to be aware of. Overall, we were extremely pleased with our stay!

Friendly Wonderful Bed & Breakfast!

We really enjoyed the host making our “check in” truly unique by sharing a lot of the history and character of your landmark home. We decided to skip the breakfast part of the Bed & Breakfast and enjoyed breakfast with “the locals” at “the Diner” recommended by our host. We really appreciated our host’s recommendations for a variety of quality “local” amenities. My wife raved about our “feather bed”again and again on our trip back home:-)

Seemed like property needed more staff. Gardens were weedy. Loose railing by front stairs. Cat debris on front porch. Host was very nice but there were "loose ends".

We really enjoy the old house experience. The house has been updated yet the original beauty well preserved. We enjoyed the hominess of having the house cat staying outside our room!

Like: Quiet neighborhood, walkable to places to eat, shop and riverboat cruise & trolley, breakfast optional. Slight inconveniences: Bathroom i unattached to room, shower stall small, distant train whistles as they passed between river and B & B 5 blocks away.

A Bit of a Disappointment

The TV did not work. If it had, it was out of date and very small. Bathroom down the hall--not easily accessible. Breakfast was minimal--no choice.

Great old house, they have cats. But the cats are very friendly and love to great the guests. (No cat box smell in house) House is clean, it's an old house, so it does have its squeeks. Nice history is told to guests about the house & the original owners. Chris was a professional chef, so breakfast is guaranteed to be delicious. Would stay there again.

Cats inside

The breakfast was very good. The bed and pillows were very comfortable. The owner has inside cats which moaned in the night. He warned us but I didn't understand at the time. I was fortunate I didn't have asthma because I'm allergic to cats. The outside was unkept but the inside room was very clean.
