I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were cozy with beautiful antique furniture and comfortable bunk beds, but the eclectic furnishings added a unique touch. The service was exceptional, and the location, nestled in the historic district of Independent Mo, was simply charming. The dining, which included delicious home-made pastries, was a delightful experience. However, the facilities were a bit lacking, and the price could be considered slightly high.

The hotel is located in the Historic District, nestled in a quiet area ideal for exploring Independent Mo. The eclectic rooms, while adorned with antique furniture, lacked an ironing board and had non-functional wifi. The dining options included grilled steaks but were not included in the rate.
