Quaint and comfortable!
Nice historic home in a great location. Very clean, with every amenity needed. King bed was very comfortable! Only concern was a heavy perfume/air freshener that aggravated our allergies. Check in/check out was super easy, and we especially appreciated the snow removal and ice melt!

Excellent!
We were in De Soto to visit family. We really enjoyed our stay at Grandma B's - it was perfect for us. It was comfortable, clean, & well equipped in every way. It is an historic type of house that has been nicely updated & decorated while maintaining it's character. The bed was super comfy. The kitchen was well stocked for cooking. We enjoyed sitting on the back porch one of the mild evenings. We most definitelly will stay here when returning to town. Thank you!

So Sweet!
Angela was so nice and helpful. We were having our floors done and needed to be out of the house. Angela went above and beyond to help us. We ended up not staying at Grandma B’s after my husband said the smell in our house was ok for us to come home, but we did go inside before we got the call from my husband and it looked very clean!

Perfect Getaway
I stayed here with four of my friends, and we had a girls night out with a Pride and Prejudice theme. This house is actually cuter in person than it is on the website. I highly recommend it It was super clean and super enjoyable. Angela was amazing and super helpful during our stay, and I actually think I may try to stay here again it was so much fun! Such a cute place and such a sweet town.

Beautiful Home
Grandma B’s is a beautifully updated old house. My family and I enjoyed our stay and the location is great. The sleeping pillows were extremely flat and uncomfortable so I do suggest bringing your own pillow from home. The house was very clean and we felt at home during our time there.

Teacher’s Trip
We are a team of PreK, K and Special Ed teachers who wanted to get away for just a day and do some bonding and shopping around KC. Grandma B’s house was perfect for us in every way. The beds were comfy, the kitchen equipped and best of all, the house was spotless! Our stay was short but memorable and we had fun sitting around the big dining room table playing games, talking and bonding. Thank you, Grandma B’s for making our trip such a success!

Cute place!
This was a perfect place to stay for our son’s wedding. Venue was close and rehearsal supper was close! Just a heads up; all 3 bedrooms are upstairs! There was lighting on the stairs; but batteries were dead. Worked well after we replaced batteries. Old house that has settling which is to be expected but none of the doors stay closed. Overall a great place to stay; would stay there again

Perfect house & location!!!!!
The house is EXQUISITE and location SUBERB! Loved everything about this place. If you're looking for something close to Bonner Springs, Olathe, Lawrence I highly recommend THIS PLACE! You're close to everything within 15minutes but have that legit small town SAFE feel. Will stay again here as our 1st pick and with zero hesitation. We were attending a concert at Azura Amphitheater.
