Just what we needed in KC
We needed a base of operations as we attended a wedding in KC area and Mia’s place worked out great for us. Convenient to many great places to visit and eat at. We had some dogs and they were accommodated. Also, I really appreciate a good communicator and Mia was terrific. There were five adults and the pups and we had plenty of room.

Very Comfortable Home
We had a great time staying here. The beds were all super comfortable. I really wanted to give this a 5 star rating however we took dogs and the back yard had lots of poison ivy in it so we were not able to let them run back there. The front yard had poison ivy in the flower bed area also. If the trees were trimmed in the back and front and poison ivy taken care of this would definitely be a 5 star property.

Property was very clean and exactly how it was presented. We had a brief power issue (area wide - not one with the property) and they got back to me within 2 minutes of my voice mail notifying them of the issue. They had researched the problem with the utility company and gave me the update (which the utility company fixed within 1 hour). They have been similarly responsive to all my questions before the visit.

Great Little Place But the Location is Not Ideal
Much effort was given to make the rental comfortable for us as guests. The kitchen was well stocked with a great attention to details. The host even included a s’more kit to use with the outdoor fire pit. It looked as if there had been a recent renovation and updated decor which showed great care by the host. The host was extremely nice and accommodating as we asked for a late checkout and very kind and generous with our request. The only negative was the extremely rundown neighborhood. The rental was a little oasis amid a lot of trash in neighboring yards. Chest of drawers and old cars left in front yards were eye sores and common place. The rental had great reviews when we researched the place, no one mentioned the rundown neighborhood. Location does matter.

Clean, Safe & Plenty of Space
Our VRBO rental was the ONLY thing that went according to plan on our trip from New England to Kansas City. We found the house to be exactly as the descriptions and photos. Our host Mia was quick to respond as I informed her of multiple flight delays and cancellations due to crazy thunderstorms in the Midwest. When the house lost power, Mia was quick to let us know that the electric company was taking care of it, and followed up to make sure the electricity was back on. The house is located near the highway and stores/restaurants. If our sons choose to attend a nearby college, I can see us renting this house again in the future. It was clean, safe, and plenty of space for our family of 8.

Fenced in Yard!
I stayed here with my husband, in-laws, and our dog and had plenty of space to enjoy our weekend! We cooked a couple of meals and were close enough to our favorite casino for a night out. The hosts were very communicative and reached out prior to us arriving to let us know how to reach them in an emergency. I enjoyed the cleanliness of the space and the yard being fenced in for our dog was awesome!

Good for family
We enjoyed the house and location. There was plenty of room for us, it was laid out well for socializing. Loved the back yard for the dog. The neighborhood was close enough to the City for us to go do things and come back without too much travel time. We would all stay here again!

The house is perfect for a family. The bedrooms are a comfortable size, house is only about 15 minutes from downtown and quick to get on the highway. Beds are firm but ok for us. Nice backyard as well.

Quaint
Property was clean and it was exactly what we were looking for. Only issue was the heat was not working. Manager had a service company come the next morning. It took most of the morning and afternoon to get it fixed.
It was a nice home inside and out. However there was mold through out the kitchen area inside a drawer and on the rags and pot holders. The master bedroom reeked of mildew along with kitchen plant. The 2nd full bath shower curtain had multiple issues falling down. Rushing out the house and realized I left my Versace belt on the bed I master bedroom. I tried reaching out to the Owner and was told the cleaning crew did not find anything. When I know for a fact I left it on the bed. So don’t ever forget anything and expect to get it back. Once it’s gone it’s gone!

Home away from home!
We had an incredible stay at Mia’s VRBO in Kansas City! The location couldn’t be better for accessing all the fun and food the city has to offer. The neighborhood is wonderfully quiet, providing a peaceful retreat after busy days exploring.
The home itself is spacious and had everything we needed to make our family time special. Mia has truly created a home-away-from-home feel, with all the amenities and comforts thoughtfully provided. The yard was perfect for our pets to enjoy, making the stay even more enjoyable.
We can’t recommend this place enough and will definitely be staying here again on our next visit to Kansas City!
