Nothing

The private hot tub and the entire beach cottage

The only downside is that the house is by a very busy main road !

The hosts were wonderful, the cottage was a jewel and the Hot Tub was the main reason we rented the place- hot and steamy !!! Love it!

Some road noise.

The host, Charles was very accommodating. I had to leave early and he graciously prepared an excellent breakfast for me.

Travelling for a long time so this was a great little break from hotel rooms. Cooked our own meals and watched Netflix and had a hot spa while the laundry was done. Very close to the Truman Presidential Library and Hivee grocery store recommended by host. Great find.

The street that the place is located is pretty busy but they do provide ear plugs which is nice.

I love that they kept the old style of the house and didn't update it like most hotels. The room was clean and the bed was soft. The breakfast was the best part I've never had a better french toast.

No fault at all to the owners, but the surrounding area was abit cluttered not much of a view. But the B&B was definitely a diamond in the rough!

Very nice breakfast. The cottage was very cozy and wonderfully decorated, loved it.

The only thing that could have been better would have been a strong reading light at the head of the bed. I like reading in bed.

Didn't get to stay for breakfast but they had a coffee cake for me and a cup of hot tea. Excellent coffee cake.

The beds were extremely uncomfortable but not so much that I couldn’t sleep, just hard to adjust because the beds are very hard. The host did mention they are working on replacing the beds to another guest. If they do this, I would 10/10 recommend this place over staying in almost any other hotel in KC even if Independence is not the nicest town, I’m not sure if you’ll find a better deal.

The property was pretty, I loved the historic feel and the hosts were absolutely lovely, the breakfast was good and honestly for the price a really good find in a hotel near KC. The rooms were clean, the hot tub was nice and the snack bar was really cute, they provided an assortment of teas and snacks. Hosts were incredibly helpful, breakfast with other guests was delightful. We appreciated the option of Netflix compared to hotels who only carry cable. You first walk into this grand kitchen with a big island, I wanted to live in that kitchen, I just love their setup. Great experience!

The inn was quaint and private. Enjoyed our stay, the king bed was very comfortable.

Antebellum experience. Full of history. Owners were very informative and helpful. They guided us to an excellent restaurant and the Truman Presidential Library. Fantastic day! Lovely goodies and breakfast too.

Really nothing.

A beautiful antebellum home to enjoy for the weekend! Accommodations were inviting and cozy. Owners were so friendly and ready to serve. Breakfast was delicious and enjoyable as guests and hosts casually visited with each others as if we all belonged there. We definitely will go back for a weekend retreat. Sites of KC easily accessible as are locally owned restaurants.

Breakfast was great, but guests seemed a bit awkward in conversing in sharing the area. Definitely not the owners fault. Just different personalities.

Very hospitable place to stay. Nice amenities.

That I didn't have more time to enjoy the grounds. There was honestly nothing lacking here. I plan to return on my next visit to the area.

This was a lovely B&B, with many special touches and attention to detail. I was very comfortable and felt right at home in the Wren Cottage. Amy and Charles, the proprietors were gracious hosts, ensuring I had everything I needed and were very attentive to all guests!

Stayed in October 2023

Everything was great.

Charles and Amy are wonderful hosts. The inn is beautiful and the breakfasts were amazing....homemade goodness. We were booked into one of the suites, but when we asked about laundry facilities, they were quick to "upgrade" us to the Wren Cottage which had a washer and dryer. It was a great bonus when you are in the middle of a 4 week trip around the USA.

Charles greeted us and showed us to our very comfortable suite. The old place has an interesting history and has been set up as a gracious Inn. We were treated to a delicious homemade pancake breakfast served in their beautifully decorated dining room. We sat at the East facing table by the window where the heiress etched her name and the names of 3 suitors she rejected in the glass. The best thing about the in is how very welcoming the Innkeepers are.

Self check in, privacy, pleasant residential neighborhood close to Truman Library, delicious breakfast, historic piano. Fully equipped kitchen in cottage.

Breakfast was hot and fresh. The private hot tub was a nice surprise and the chairs on the porch were perfect for coffee in the morning.

We enjoyed the location near town and 10 minutes away from the Truman Museum and Library. and the home-cooked breakfast with fresh berries was good.

Nothing really, no complaints.

Food was great, host was very friendly and helpful. Bed was pretty comfortable and hot tub was nice as well.

Stayed in September 2023

The bed was a not real comfortable…. a little too soft and “rolly”, and there was a light in the hallway outside our door that kept flashing around the door edges that was disturbing (I mentioned it to the staff in email).

Beautiful B&B, really gorgeous bathroom with two sinks, good, freshly made breakfast, friendly staff.
