Family Friendly Home in Central Location

DanaRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago

Paula's house was spacious for my family. The playroom just off the kitchen was perfect for my 2-1/2-year-old granddaughter. The kitchen is a good size, allowing us to cook breakfast and dinner without issues. The price was good, especially for graduation weekend. A nice basket and a note were at the house when we arrived. Overall, the house served its purpose and was functional for our stay in Columbia.

Downtown Comfy 2 BDR -Close walk to everything!

SheilaRating, 5 stars1 month ago

We were only here for a quick overnight during a road trip, but I was impressed with all of the thoughtful touches in the unit. My daughter goes to Mizzou and was afraid it would be loud because we were there for "stop day" (lots of parties because of the end of the semester), but it wasn't loud at all. The area is older homes, but the unit has been updated and was very comfortable and clean. It's obvious that the owners care about making your stay pleasant. Having two dedicated parking spaces was great as well. We'd stay there again in the future.

Wooded pampered comfort close to downtown

AlanaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

This stay was one of the better experiences I’ve had with Airbnb. Anne wrote us a personalized card and left us farm fresh eggs and locally baked cookies. Amazing! The place was so quiet and peaceful. I would stay here again! The only complaint I have is that we were unable to adjust the temperature in the space. However, Anne provided a fan, and it was cool enough outside to open the window.

A comfortable seating area features two brown leather recliners and a plush couch, arranged around a patterned area rug. Natural light enters through large windows adorned with green curtains, while a modern ceiling fan enhances the airy feel of the space. A television and decorative shelves are present.

Staying at Emily's spot for our wedding weekend was a dream come true. The location in the heart of downtown is absolutely perfect and makes all the best spots walkable for your stay. The space is intimate, renovated, and perfect for a little getaway from everyday chaos. Emily was great with communication and supporting our stay.
